Amazing day!! Excellent tour guide and experience. Highly recommend! Learned a lot about Florence history , art , and culture. Our guide was local and he had great tips and recommendations. Very knowledgeable about all topics related to Florence!!
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had another amazing day exploring Florence with us. It’s fantastic that your local guide again provided great tips and recommendations while sharing extensive knowledge about Florence’s history, art, and culture. Your continued trust and high recommendation mean a lot to us. We look forward to welcoming you back for more insightful tours with Through Eternity!
If I could write this tour as 10 stars, I would. I have three adult children who have never been to Florence and we're desperate to learn as much as possible. We had only one day. There is one thing you can say about Through Eternity: their guides are phenomenal. We were pretty jet lagged and Angelo made our day extra special. We were too tired to eat an early breakfast and would you believe we asked him if he would mind if we ate breakfast before we started the tour?! No pressure Angelo! He joined us for breakfast. He really brought Florence to life for us and answered every single question which if you knew our group, way too many questions. Sadly, we had to move on to another town but we would have loved to have taken another tour with Angelo. We hope to see you again Angelo and we wish you the best!
Thank you for sharing your incredible experience from 2021! We apologize for the delayed response, but we’re thrilled to hear that Angelo made your one-day visit to Florence so special. It’s wonderful that he could accommodate your jet-lagged group, even joining you for breakfast before starting the tour. His ability to bring Florence to life and answer all your questions truly reflects the dedication of our guides. We’re sorry you had to move on so quickly, but we hope to welcome you and your family back for another tour in the future. Your kind words and 10-star rating mean the world to us. Safe travels and best wishes!
We had only one day to spend in Florence, and this tour was a great way to do it! Our tour guide, Brenda, has a tremendous passion and devotion to the arts, surpassed only by her charming personality. She gave us a tour of the Uffizi, and surrounding area while highlighting and explaining what makes certain artists and their great works of art stand out in history. You can’t help but be swept up in the love Brenda has of her home and the amazing artwork she is surrounded by every day. We viewed Michelangelo, Giotto, DaVinci, Botticelli, and Raphael, among many others. It was wonderful to have Brenda by our sides as the paintings I had seen countless times in art history books were suddenly there in front of us, demanding our full attention...and getting it! Aside from art museums, Brenda treated us to an interesting tour of the "outdoor museum" of Florence itself, pointing out archeological styles and features along the walk from the Uffizi to the Accademia Gallery. Her explanations helped us understand the intense rivalry between the Medici and Strozzi families, and the way Florentines hang on to their traditions and their practicality, as demonstrated in the case one building, having once been a granary, which later wound up being a church! Brenda saved the masterpiece of masterpieces for last: Michelangelo's "David." She says she sees this work nearly every day and discovers something new about it every time. Take this tour with Brenda! She will tell you herself: she was born to do this job.

Dear Elizabeth, Thank you for your detailed review of you day with Brenda. It warms our hearts to read that you had such a fantastic experience with her. Our TEam recently went to Florence and I remember all the treasures you describe all too well. It makes me want to go back again, you too? Brenda is a gem in our Florence guide team and we are happy that her stories of the arts have mesmerised you. She is indeed a very passionate individual who was born for this job and we hope she will do with us for many more years. It sounds like the full day Florence tour was the right fit with your desires and we thank you for writing about it! Perhaps we will see you again in one of the other gorgeous Italian cities. *Desiree*
