Francesco = Best Guide in Italy - We scheduled this super last minute and it might have been the highlight of our entire week-long trip in Italy. Francesco was an EXCELLENT guide who took his time to really explain all of the amazing history that was literally everywhere within the city. His passion for the art and the history of Florence made it easy to be engaged and ask questions and we ended up incredibly glad that we did this tour. Francesco's students are lucky to have him as a teacher! Thank you!!

Best tour from our whole trip - This organization is top-notch and we really loved our tour with Monica. She’s really knowledgeable but more importantly, she knows how to deliver just the right amount of information, supplemented with engaging and memorable stories (and that she was 100 percent understandable made it al the more enjoyable!j

Walking and talking with Arzu! - We loved our tour with Zeynep Arzu!!! She was very knowledgeable and friendly. She had answers for all our questions. We’ve discovered some new facts and secrets of the Medici family. Two hours of walking beautiful streets of Florence went too quickly yet eventful.

A tour guide with a passion - This was an excellent walking tour. Thanks to Giovanni I now know how to appreciate statues, their locations, the story behind the statue, and how to try to read a statue. His explanation of statues really opened a part of me that I didn't know existed. He explained how rich and powerful families conquered cities and how they incorporated their family's transitions and goals. Whatever powerful families built they ensured their family crest was on the building. He explained how the churches were built and their purpose. I will never look at a statue again the way I did before this tours. I am really amazed at Giovanni and his inept know but I must also say he is a professor and he is passionate about art history. Anyone who is fortunate enough to have him as a tour guide will not be disappointed. Good job Giovanni
