Giovanna was an amazing tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and made navigating the crowds easier.

This was the tour I was looking forward to the most, and was my favorite tour in Florence so far. Our guide was knowledgeable and funny. She had so many beautiful bits of information to add to the experience of seeing some of these amazing masterpieces. And skipping the lines in this heat? Worth every penny.
Amazing place. It is busy in July but Giovanna expertedly manoeuvres us through. Detailed and layered explaination of the highlights and some personal favorites. Highlight of our Florence visit
A small group tour which focuses on a selection of works and has a consistent theme is more informative than a stroll through a huge gallery
We did tours in Pompeii, Rome, and Florence and Giovanna was our favorite tour guide. So knowledgeable, welcoming, and funny! She made us appreciate the art in ways we otherwise would not have. She also gave a great book recommendation for me to read to help share some of the knowledge we learned today with my history classes!
Giovanna was extremely knowledgeable regarding the paintings and sculptures we were shown in the Uffizi. The tour provided a great overview of the highlights. Thank you, Giovanna!
Patrizia is wonderful and very informative. Overall enjoyed tour..Only reason I am giving 4 is for the headphones, not fitting properly. These probably are more sanitary than the inside ear buds but do not stay on ears.
Exceptional guide A R. She was very knowledgeable and made the art come alive.
Polina was full of great information and helped us make sure we saw many of Ufizzi’s highlights. Her excitement about the art made the experience even more amazing.
