The Best Way to Discover Florence - We were incredibly lucky to have Annette as our guide for several tours during our time in Florence, and she was absolutely outstanding. Annette is exceptionally knowledgeable about the city: its art, history, architecture, and the fascinating stories behind the people who shaped Florence. Every place we visited came alive through her explanations. We learned so much from her in a short time, and every tour felt thoughtful, insightful and inspiring. It genuinely enriched our entire trip. Highly recommended!

Strolling with an expert! - Annette is thoroughly knowledgeable! Her presentation is paced and not overwhelming you with information at once. I appreciated that she wasn’t a tape recorder, spewing out preset tour, rather she fluidly fielded questions while covering all the highlights/history of Florence.

David - Annette was a fantastic guide - she gave us a great insight in to the life of Michelangelo and she obviously has a great passion for the subject. The walk through the city was the icing on the cake - thank you :)

Outstanding Annette - We had an amazing morning with Annette who took us straight into the Accademia with no waiting. She was so incredibly knowledgeable about the fabulous artworks, and we spent a long time staring in awe at beautiful David whilst Annette told us every detail of his history, anatomy and origin. Then on to a brilliant walk around the beautiful city centre where the history of every corner was revealed. Annette even gave us advice on where to get the best gelato in town! Outstanding.

Not to be missed!!! - Francesco was amazing with us! We were short time but he was sure to cover the hot spots and fill the day with history and nuances that one would, I’m certain, not get from any general guidebook! Just wonderful!!!!!

Fantastic day in Florence! - Annette was wonderful! Two members of our family have been to the academia and uffizi before and with Annette guiding us, we learned so many new things that The David and the art of the uffizi took on all new meaning. She is deeply informed so much so that any question we asked quickly had an answer (what’s that obscure building over there? Tell me about that tiny painting in the corner). She has a lovely personality and was helpful in guiding us to a very fun restaurant for lunch with a jovial owner who set us up with an amazing platter of food. The kids - ages 10 to 17 - loved the tour even though it was over 100 degrees and it was their fourth day of seeing museums. That takes an extraordinary tour guide to accomplish! We highly recommend!

Comprehensive Florence Tour - Annette was fantastic. We had already done a Duomo tour and Medici Family tour. Definitely didn’t need the Medici family tour with all that she covered. Her love of Florence, history and art are evident in her storytelling making it easy for the guest to follow and comprehend. We learned so much from Accademia tour about David and beyond David. Only wish we would have had her for a Uffizzi tour.
