Private tour in the city of art - Amaizing tour in Floreance during my solo trip in Italy. As it was private I had the opportunity to ask all the questions I wanted to my guide. She inspired me and made me passionate about Italian art. I loved how she explained the things very clearly and easy to understand. Certainly not my last time in Florence.

Private tour with Anna - Anna was a very knowledgeable and fun guide. We enjoyed our tour through Florence as she explained the sites in great detail while also showing us other places that we could explore and still enjoy ourselves apart from the tour . Anna made sure to tailor it to our preferences . She gets a 10/10 and we would highly recommend a tour through Florence with her.
