Best Private Guide for Florence

Rick_B, Jul 2024
Gianmarco was such a wonderful, knowledgeable Tour Guide. He tailored the tour for our needs, interests and pace. He obviously loved Florence and shared his enthusiasm with us by telling stories from his perspective while including historical facts. Can not possibly say enough good things about him, ask for Gianmarco.

Response from Host, Jul 2024

We really value your kind words. We are sure that Gianmarco put everything in his hands to achieve this compliment. We are glad you and your companions enjoyed the experience.
