My friends and I booked a half-day "Discovery Tour" with the Academia included and it was great! Our tour guide was Patritzia and she did a wonderful job of taking us to places a little off the main streets which was exactly what we were looking for. We would have probably never found the great nooks and crannies without her... More

I am glad to hear that you have enjoyed the tour and got to know the city better and more though Patrizia. You had booked a "short discovery tour + Accademia". It is a 3 hrs tour that include the visit of the Accademia. Patrizia lost track of time because it is very hard to be "short" when you have... More

I visited Florence a few days ago. Having seen how highly recommended this agency was, I was eager to book two of their tours, despite of the fact that I'm usually sceptical about guided tours. Unfortunately, neither of the tours I wanted were available. However, through the emails I exchanged with Eleni, I realized how professionals they are. First, Eleni... More

We spent a day with Michele (Michael), who took us on a general walking tour of Florence, to the Accademia, and to the Uffizi. Although it's impossible to see even a quarter of all Florence has to offer in 1 day, Michele did an outstanding job of giving us a comprehensive overview of the city's art and history. He was...

We used to venture through big cities on our own pace and this is our first experience of joining small groups with guides. Since Florence is so famous of their sculptues, paintings and architecture, my wife and I thought some explanations from a good guide might increase our pleasure and enrich our experience. From trip adviser we found recomendations on... More

This was our first trip to Florence (and Italy); booking activities online usually gives me a bit of pause, but not this time. I had several email communications with Stella and she was such a pleasure (and so patient) to work with while making our arrangements. Our tour guide, Michele, was the best! We had only one day in Florence,... More

We booked a 3 hour walk about tour of Florence with Paola and learned more about the city and it's history than we ever imagined we would. Her knowledge and love of Florence shines on this tour. She keeps all ages engaged and interested. Take this tour - you will not regret it. More

Although my husband had been to Italy a number of years ago, this was my first trip and I wanted to see as much as possible. We had almost a week in Florence and we booked the Discover Florence, Accademy and Uffizi Tours with Guided Florence Tours, and stayed in the Hotel Kursaal & Ausonia. It was the best decision...

We are living in Florence for at least one year and we have been touring as much of Italy as possible. To make the most of each visit we hire a tour guide. In Florence we have had the great fortune of joining tours organized and led by Paolo. Paola's intelligence, knowledge and experience of Florence is phenomenal. Of course... More
