Great tour guide! Provided history and pointed us to reputable local businesses
We had an amazing afternoon in Firenze. We did a tour of 2 hours. Vanessa was our guide. She did an excellent job of giving information about the city. We were amazed by here knowledge. Every question we had she gave an interesting answer with the story behind it. She and her husband love the city and it works very contagious. We felt very welcome as a tourist in their city. We stopped at beautiful places and took pictures. Really recommend it!
This tour was so perfect! It combined food, history, and local culture. Vanessa was extremely knowledgeable and so nice. The food was amazing and we would do it a hundred times over! Highly recommend for anyone coming to Florence.
Vanessa was kind, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to spend time with. We will always choose her services when traveling in Firenze.
Great tour for the entire family. There are 3-4 food stops, so make sure to come hungry. We loved the cheese stop but everything was so nice. Thank you Vanessa!
Vanessa is a great guide. She took us to some great stops in Florence -- and in a variety of neighborhoods -- and was also able to answer our various questions along the way. I'm also really glad that she pushed us out of our comfort zone to try foods we might not have otherwise!
