Panoramic Florence - Off the Beaten Path

Letizia was recommended to us by a friend. We loved the tour and appreciated her knowledge of Florentine history, art, culture, etc. The city along the left bank of the river is very charming and much less crowded. We really enjoyed our tour and learned so much about the city.

Visit Florence and Siena

We had the pleasure of spending two wonderful days with Letizia, who accompanied us to discover Siena and Florence. We were a family, with two teenage children, and right from the start she managed to engage everyone. Her Florentine roots and deep knowledge of the area emerge in every explanation, enriched by curious and interesting anecdotes that make the visit even more engaging. She has the ability to adapt to the needs of every person and, in particular, to capture the attention of young people, stimulating their curiosity and desire to discover. Her explanations were clear, passionate, and never boring: they made us appreciate the history and beauty of these cities even more. In addition to her great preparation, we appreciated her friendliness, her smile, and the authentic passion with which she does her job. Thank you Letizia!

The angelic blessed with Letizia

I went Friday, January 24 to Palazzo Strozzi with this guide. I'm honest it wasn't the first time, in fact whenever I need it I turn to her. She is very prepared and leads you passionately in the stories and images she tells. I would definitely recommend it.

An essential guide

Letizia is a great quality guide. She is very friendly and smiling. She answered all the related questions. Our request was to see the major works in the Uffizi Gallery and we were very satisfied with the route proposed. We highly recommend her especially as she speaks perfect French.
