Utterly brilliant. Paolo, our guide, was attentive and very knowledgeable.We were a group of four friends. He was patient with us, showed us some different and interesting parts of Florence (as we’d requested). His English was excellent and we enjoyed every step along the way.
Very nice hotel. Personal and committed.
Great experience carried out on February 12. Valeria, our guide, is very knowledgeable and passionate about her work. I recommend it
Chiara is an exceptional guide. She doesn't just show Florence, she tells it. The Medici, the great ancestral families, the power struggles, the traditions... all come to life through its anecdotes and its immense historical culture. A rich, captivating, never boring visit. A real happiness for history lovers. Special mention for its excellent recommendations of restaurants and pizzerias: authentic addresses, far from tourist traps, which we loved. A visit as rewarding as it is gourmet. Best pizzas in Florence: GUSTAPIZZA Via Maggio 46 r Florence
Exceptional!!! Guide Luigi is a friendly and interesting historian. We loved it!!! Favorite for the city of Flora this with this visit.
Enrico was very knowledgable, spoke good English and listened to what we wanted out of the tour. His love for his city is contagious.
Florence's charm is unmatched. From the iconic Duomo to the winding streets lined with gelato shops, every moment in this city is a treasure. With its rich history and vibrant culture, Florence captivates the soul. A must-visit destination for any traveler. Our tour in Florence was fantastic! The guide was truly exceptional, bringing the city's history and culture to life with enthusiasm and expertise. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Florence!
I arrived early and stood admiring the breathtaking vista across the mountains while I waited for them. The first garden apartments that become available will have very high standards and some amazing views over the center area that has been planted. There are wonderful treks with breathtaking vistas.
Florence completely charmed me with its timeless beauty. From the endless vineyards to the quaint villages, every part of the trip felt like stepping into a storybook. The friendly locals and amazing wine made it unforgettable. Plus, our guide from GuyDeez was fantastic, making the experience even more special. Highly recommended!!! :)
