Privat halvdagstur i Firenze

This tour included an ear piece for each of us so at any given time we could hear our guide above the city’s noise. That was a game changer since we were walking and looking and listening. Our guide knew the city like one knows his own family. Very knowledgeable with dates and names and details! In fact, just hours after the tour our discussion led to a symbol in the restaurant we had just learned from our guide. Be sure to start your tour early if scheduling in the summer.

Manuel was absolutely exceptional and gave our family of six one of the highlights of our entire Italy trip. He was incredibly knowledgeable, flexible, engaging, and attentive to every detail. He brought Florence’s history to life while tailoring the experience to our interests and pace. Beyond the iconic sights, he introduced us to hidden gems and local insights we never would have found on our own. His passion for Florence is contagious, and his genuine kindness made us feel like friends rather than tourists. Manuel sets the standard for what every private guide should aspire to be. If you’re visiting Florence, do yourself a favor and book Manuel. You won’t regret it! Highly, highly recommended.

Manuel gave us a Fantastic tour. Very knowledgeable on the history, art, and food in Florence. Great English communication for being an Italian. He was very considerate that we were comfortable during the whole tour. Created a perfect atmosphere for a tourist. This was a private tour which helps our family much more than a large crowd.

I REALLY liked the way our guide did the tour in chronological order. The story makes more sense that way. I liked seeing the link between politics and tax policy and how it affected building design and ground floor footage. I liked the alley and back street pearls like the wine windows, architectural details, and small sacred spots. The tour leader’s English was hard to understand.

It was an amazing tour ! Thank you to Manuel for introducing us to the ancient history of Florence.

We were greeted by Manuel, who indulged us with so mary stories of Florence from Roman times through to the Medici. We were told how to spot signs that are hidden to most visitors. Only now do we see these hidden gems. What a lovely experience.

Explore Florence with a local. Discover hidden jewels that you would have never found on your own or on a large group tour. Yet all the major sites are covered but the historical commentaries at each are invaluable. Get great advice on what is of importance to see and what may not be worth your time. There is so much to see and discover in Florence. This may very well be the best way to do it.

Booking a half day walking tour was a really good idea for us to get a perspective of the depth of the history of Florence. Our guide, Sarah, was able to provide not just the history of the sights we visited but she did a great job in giving an overview and putting in context the various art work and the importance of the artists and leaders of Florence. We really enjoyed this tour.

We loved the personal local’s experience and stories. The love he has for this beautiful city is contagious. We loved the history he shared.

We had a tour with All Around Florence with a well informed tour guide. He told us all about the Renaissance era with information you couldn’t find in a tour booklet. He truly cared about what we learned about the city he loves. I recommend you take a tour with this organization, they are good.
