      Emilia was a perfect guide!
      Emilia our guide was excellent! We had the best walking tour of the beautiful city of Florence on a cold day in December. We would do it again in a heartbeat and will recommend her to everyone!

      Excellent, informative and fascinating tour. Book Irina now!
      Fantastic, informative, engaging and Interesting. Irina wove together a great story and tailored it as she went along as she learned about us. Her enthusiasm and passion is clear and her English is beautiful with a sense of humor. When she realized we had just arrived in Florence she gave us a 20 minute history lesson as we waited in line. She help get through security and busy spots with ease and took time to answer our numerous questions with patience and extra details. One of the best and most interesting tours we have ever had. You will not be disappointed!

      Amazing… simply amazing. Irina is the best.
      Our tour was phenomenal. Our tour guide, Irina, captivated us with an amazing narrative that wove the history of the Duomo, the baptistery, and the museum together in a flawlessly. She was also super fun to talk to and was more than willing and capable of answering the questions and discussion points that came up during the tour. Her background in art history, her great attitude, friendly demeanor, and clear English made Irina an amazing tour guide and made for a phenomenal tour. I can highly recommend.

      Incredible Tour with Irina of the Medici Chapels
      I've taken many tours in Europe over the years and this was one of my two favorite tours of all time---the other one was also on this trip and was also with Irina (her Uffizi Tour). She is incredibly knowledgeable and provides interesting details and information that we would not otherwise have learned from a guide book. She is also very sweet, speaks perfect English and was a delight to be with for a couple of hours.

      Irina is great!
      We had a morning tour of the Medici Chapels with Irina. She was on time, friendly, and professional. She was a font of amazing information, even though we knew quite a bit about Florence from previous trips. I will recommend her to family and friends and we hope to be on another of her tours soon. 10/10

      An amazing guide
      Irina was wonderful! Highly knowledgeable and personable, she was able to answer any questions we had about our visit to the Medici chapels. She came equipped with photos of the key historical characters to help make the tour even more intriguing. I would recommend booking with Irina in a heartbeat! You wont be disappointed!

      Memorizing experience
      Irina was the best guide. She studies art history in college and put together a very interesting and educational tour. I’m so glad we booked it. It was worth every penny. Highly recommend.

      Dream come true!
      Irina was so knowledgeable and passionate about sharing what she knew about The David and the other artwork at the Gallery! It was always a dream for me to see the David, and she made the experience so much more than just getting to see the David, and Michelangelo’s other works! I learned so much more than I would have ever expected! Thank you, Irina!

      The Best tour guide for Florence!
      Irina was the best tour guide we’ve ever had. She kept two teenaged kids and one adult totally enthralled throughout a 3h walking tour of Florence. I cannot recommend her highly enough. We hope to revisit the city - and when/if we do we know who to contact for another tour. Thanks Irina!

      Best tour guide!
      Irina is a wonderful guide. We would not hesitate to recommend her to our friends. She is engaging and knowledgeable. Our tour was well organized and nicely paced. Irina had organized images of the Medici family on her iPad to help us understand their history and influence. We would be pleased to engage her for a tour again.

      Private tour of the Uffizi Gallery
      Irina was a fabulous guide. She was very informative. She told us a story of Florence, the Medici family and intervove the artwork into it. I have walked around the Uffizi before but today the experience was so much more special because of Irina. Thank you so much.

      Irina’s passion for art made this a wonderful tour
      We had no idea what we didn’t know until Irina filled us in on the David statue and Michelangelo. The experience was wonderful and her passion for art came through during her tour. She taught us so much about art history around the David statue and how to his statue came to be.

    This tour with Irina was excellent, which was expected as this was my third tour with her. This tour was informative, interesting and whetted my appetite to learn more about Florence. This tour was also different as we weren't confined to a specific building and could walk around and see the energy of the city of Florence. This tour encouraged us to ask many questions about the different buildings, the people who build them and how Florence has changed over the years.
    I can see how this tour will always be different as the people attending will ask different questions which will lead to more questions an so on. I liked this idea very much. Irina answered every question and seemed as interested in questions as we were curious about the answers.
    This tour, as with all tours with Irina, was very entertaining, educational and definitely worth every penny.
    I highly recommend Irina for any tour of Florence/Tuscany.

    We really enjoyed the small details that brought Florence to life for us. The stories of the Medici family and the intricate details of how Florence became the birthplace city of the Renaissance were uniquely Irina. She told the stories that made the experience interesting and put us in the “virtual world” of the bourgeois class of the 15th century. Do yourself a favor and book her. You won’t regret. Gratzie Irina.

    Irina is well and truly amazing guide. Her knowledge of Florence and its hisory is tremendous and she will find a little story to tell you about so many things you would have missed. She will answer all your questions thoughtfully. It almost feels like you are studying about Florence in real time with her which was an amazing experience for a history buff like me.

    All in all - I will definitely book another tour with her when I am here next time and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.

    Irina gave us a wonderful tour- perfect for getting oriented to the city on our first night. She gave us enough detail to be entertaining without my 11 and 13 year old boys being bored. When we saw museums afterwards, both boys remembered things Irina had taught them. Highly recommend her tour!

    We took the Walking Tour in Florence: 2 hour and in the evening and what a great way to explore Florence! Irina was amazing and kind and extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend her and walking around the city with her. She took us to so many great places. Plenty of time for pictures and we were treated to an amazing sunset. She was also super at answering our travel questions and dinner recommendations. Thank you, Irina!
