Irina was excellent, thoroughly enjoyed the trip and being able to talk about what we’d discovered as Irina guided us through beautiful Florence and its history:
Irina is well and truly amazing guide. Her knowledge of Florence and its hisory is tremendous and she will find a little story to tell you about so many things you would have missed. She will answer all your questions thoughtfully. It almost feels like you are studying about Florence in real time with her which was an amazing experience for a history buff like me. All in all - I will definitely book another tour with her when I am here next time and I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.
Thank you so much for this wonderful and generous review — it truly made me smile to read it. I’m delighted that exploring Florence together felt immersive and rewarding, especially for someone who shares a deep interest in history. Being able to uncover the small stories that often go unnoticed and discuss them in the moment is one of the things I love most about guiding. Please excuse my delayed reply, and thank you for your patience. Your enthusiasm and recommendation mean a great deal to me, and I would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back for another tour the next time you’re in Florence. Warmest regards, Irina
Our guide, Irina, was excellent! She was engaging, personable and shared so much of the rich history, culture and uniqueness of this glorious city!
Irina is a very experienced tour guide! We (my relatives and I) availed of her tour package and was not disappointed. She contacted us minutes before the specified time to make sure we can easily find her in the midst of the crowd. She took her time to tell the story of how Florence came to be and she also used visual guides to understand her better. The tour was at a relaxed pace and did not feel rushed at all!
We took the Walking Tour in Florence: 2 hour and in the evening and what a great way to explore Florence! Irina was amazing and kind and extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend her and walking around the city with her. She took us to so many great places. Plenty of time for pictures and we were treated to an amazing sunset. She was also super at answering our travel questions and dinner recommendations. Thank you, Irina!
Hello Nina, Thank you for taking the time to leave me such a great review! I am really glad you had a jolly time on my evening tour around Florence and I hope to welcome you back on one of my experiences! - Irina
Irina gave us a wonderful tour- perfect for getting oriented to the city on our first night. She gave us enough detail to be entertaining without my 11 and 13 year old boys being bored. When we saw museums afterwards, both boys remembered things Irina had taught them. Highly recommend her tour!
Dear Cara, thank you so much for your wonderful review! I am beyond thrilled to hear that you and your family had an amazing time on my evening tour around Florence!

I can’t wait to welcome you back on one of my tours around Florence! - Irina
