    Great small group tour!

    Great tour! This was our second time in Florence and previously did another tour that covered the main sights of the city. This tour was much more intimate and we were able to see the main attractions and also so many hidden features and stories that aren’t commonly known.

    I had an amazing walking tour in Florence! The guide was very knowledgeble and passionate, sharing so many interesting stories about the city’s history, art, and hidden corners. The tour was well-organized, easy to follow, and allowed enough time to enjoy the beauty of Florence without feeling rushed. I especially loved discovering places I would have never found on my own. It was both educational and fun, and I truly felt the spirit of this incredible city. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Florence!

    Ali is Florence ambassador in the world

    We were a group of 10 and ended up having the walking tour completely to ourselves, which made it feel super personal. Our guide, Ali, fit right in with our group — it felt like exploring Florence with a very knowledgeable friend. He didn’t just show us the big must-see landmarks, but also led us to small hidden spots we would’ve totally missed on our own. Ali clearly knows Florence inside out: the history, the local businesses, the little details about everyday life here, and how the city evolved from the Renaissance to what it is today. It gave us such a richer understanding of the place — way beyond the usual tourist stuff. If you really want to discover Florence in all its beauty and majesty, Ali is the perfect guide.
