Worth it - Saw a different side of the city, far from the shops of the fashion district. Worth the money for the way our guide was able to work at our pace.

Don’t miss Florence with Cristina - This was our first trip to Florence. To be honest when we first arrived, we thought Florence would be a one and done for us, but after our tour with Cristina, we are definitely going back! Cristina is native to Florence and her love and pride for her city is so evident and infectious. She is extremely well-versed about the city ‘s history and showed us all of the hidden gems including the most delicious gelato! When the tour was over, she recommended wonderful restaurants that we enjoyed and directed us to some really nice authentic local shops. We really enjoyed our day with Cristina and she completely turned our limited first impression to an authentic awesome experience that we want to revisit!

So happy we booked a tour!! - Dina was the best! We booked a Highlights and hidden gems tour in Florence for my husband and 2 kids 15/13. Dina was truly awesome. Communication was fantastic pre tour and during - she provided us with so many fun facts and interesting stories. (Ones you cant google!) We saw sights, learned the history and her restaurant knowledge is A+.Dina was so easy to be with, very personable and fun. She is also so kind and super helpful. My daughter, 13 missed the tour because she was sick. Dina had checked in with me to see how she was doing and if we needed anything. Wow! How incredibly thoughtful. Dina goes above and beyond. Don’t hesitate i highly recommend booking with Dina!!

Outstanding - We had a tour of Florence with Dina and from the moment we met, I knew we’d made the right choice. Dina is a rare combination of passionate, deeply knowledgable, charming and funny. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who is thinking of doing anything with "a local" in Florence. Her care, kindness and love for her city are unmatched in my opinion x
