Assassin's Creed tour with Alessia

Assassin's creed tour with Alessia. Really informative and friendly guide. Took us to see all the main sight seeing destinations and gave lots of information about the history behind them. Included information on the history in Assassin's creed and what was fact and fiction, really interesting! Would definitely recommend for first time tourists to Florence.

Assassin’s Creed tour

Yesterday, my partner and I were accompanied by Alessia to discover the most characteristic places in the historic center of Florence related to the adventures of Ezio Auditore. They were two very pleasant hours where Alessia was able to tell very interesting anecdotes as well as historical facts of medieval Florence. It has enriched our knowledge about this city that we love very much. Thanks from Alessandra and Mauro

Fantastic Tour – A Journey Through Florence's History!

We had an incredible experience on the Assassin’s Creed-themed Florence tour. Alessia, was exceptionally knowledgeable and brought the city's rich history to life, linking key moments to the game's storyline in a way that was both engaging and informative. Not only did we visit the main sights of Florence—like the Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, and Ponte Vechhio smongst others —but we also got detailed background on the historical context behind them. The history of Florence really shone through, making the tour immersive and memorable. Highly recommended for fans of the game and history buffs alike!

Thank you for your awesome review! I'm glad you've enjoyed our Assassins'Creed tour!

A most enjoyable day in Florence!

Florence is an amazing city, full of art, culture and architecture. To have a guide for the day is highly recommended. Our guide Alessia, was multilingual which made all the difference for our small group (French, Argentine & American). The overall tour was in English (which everyone had a basic knowledge), but she was able to answer questions in French and Spanish as well. A+ for engaging with everyone and accommodating our requests! She has a vast knowledge of the history of the city as well as highlights of the Uffizi & Academia Museums and wonderful stories to share. Our only hiccup was not having a clear understanding that this was a fully walking tour and I was concerned that it might be tiring for one in our group. The heart of Florence is clearly meant to be enjoyed by walking and it made sense as we went from location to location. Alissia was thoughtful about taking breaks and finding places along the way to sit as needed. Gratzi for a most enjoyable afternoon!

I can't thank you enough for this wonderful review! Grazie mille!
