Couldn’t have asked for more! - Our semi private group ended up just being the two of us and our guide, Sylvia. We had such a fabulous time walking the streets of Florence with her! She is a wealth of knowledge, and such a kind, happy spirit! Thank you so much, Sylvia! We highly recommend this tour, and our guide!

Excellent Small Group Tour of the History of Florence! - We very much enjoyed our small group walking tour and our guide was easy to understand and since our group was so small she was able to tailor the tour to our specific interests and answer questions as well as take us to some of the lesser known less touristy sites along the way! We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a quick and easy tour with the history of Florence you might miss if doing it on your own!

Underwhelming - We booked the walking tour for our first day in Florence to hopefully get an idea of what around the city we would want to explore further. Our tour guide was not very informative and it felt very rushed. It was basically an hour stroll you can do on your own if anyone you’ve ever known has been here 5 minutes longer than you have

Not good - Unfortunately, didn’t learn much. Our guide talked a lot about stories and some history, but mostly irrelevant things. Spoke very soft and spoke too much. We didn’t cover much ground because she rambled too much. We did English tour, but guide was German so accent in English was sometimes hard to get. Just wasn’t what we thought and she went 40-45 minutes over. Too much detail
