Our guide, Armando, made this tour truly special. He was so charming, knowledgeable, and entertaining. He gave us history we never would have known and took us to places we could not have known about. He told us where and when to buy tickets to locations of interest and kept us moving along at a perfect pace to see everything he wanted to show us. He was just wonderful and brought the city to life for us.
The walking tour is great start to see the sites of the city and to get your bearings. The wonderful guide shared his favourite places to eat, or have a cheeky wine from one the the wine doors. The tour is a must for sorts time visitors to Florence.
Aaron was our guide and Ferdinand the driver. The tour was well organized and it keept times perfectly. The time in Pisa was enough for the highlight. S. Gimignano is well conservated and the wine tour was great. We had the vegan option for lunch and it was satisfactory. No proteins avaliable. Siena guided tour is worth the experience as we love to hear the history of the cities we visit.
We had a great experience on our walking tour of Florence! The tour was very well paced, with plenty of time to take in the beautiful sights without ever feeling rushed. Armendo was friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable, and he shared lots of interesting information and history throughout the tour. It was a great way to see the city and learn more about Florence at the same time. We really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Florence!
Fabulous tour. Guide was very knowledgeable and interacted very well with a large group. Would highly recommend
Great city tour with knowledgeable guide that brings real knowledge and some humour to the 2hr walk around key sites
Guide was superb (Anando?). So much great info. These tours make learning history fun.
Armando was a wealth of knowledge! Very entertaining! Also, the length of the tour was perfecto! Thank you, Armando!
Excellent guide. We had an amazing time. Our guide was really enthusiastic and fun! I also appreciated how he always tried to keep us in shade, even though it was a sunny day
