A brilliant tour and guide - would highly recommended - Our walking tour of Florence was fantastic and was the perfect way to start our first visit to the city. Becky was our guide, she inspired us both with her knowledge of Florence and her passion for its history and art. The place truly came alive as she spoke and we learnt so much in a fun and engaging way, all morning! She also provided lots of recommendations for things to do and places to eat - invaluable help for our trip - thank you so much!

Florence walking tour - My wife and recently went on the Florence walking tour via “walk” about tours. The tour was excellent, very intimate with only seven people! Becky, our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, she answered all our questions and provided very interesting anecdotal information. We highly recommend this tour it’s far better than those large impersonal tour groups.

Take a walking tour with Becky! - Becky was incredible, she has encyclopedic knowledge of Florence's history and made every stop just come alive. Her knowledge of the personalities of the artists and architects made the renaissance so textured and fascinating. There was a 7 year-old on the your and she was so engaging with the family and with us! Cannot recommend her highly enough!

Enrich your Florence and Italy experience with this tour! - I did this tour with Becky and had an absolute blast. I really appreciated her story-telling ability, knowledge of the city/region, and chunking of the history into themes. It's hard to take so much history and present it in a cohesive and engaging way, but she knocked it out of the park. Particularly, I really enjoyed that after having done this tour, I was able to spot some of the aspects of buildings or Florence's history that I would have overlooked had I not done the tour. I recommend doing this tour first for anyone who is new to the city and wants to have a more fulfilling trip for the rest of their stay!
