We booked this tour as a first day introduction to Florence, and it did not disappoint. Our guide Pam (English but living in Italy for a long time) provided a great introduction with a lot of background and historical details. Would definitely recommend.

Martina was our guide today and we really enjoyed our tour. She brought us to places that we would not have found by ourselves. She has a lot of knowledge and is very easy to talk to. She gave us so many recommendations, we are certain that we will not be able to do everything that she recommended, but we really appreciate that she took the time and wants to make our visit in Florence memorable. Thank you Martina!
