Great little tour

Angela_A, Apr 2026

It was a great experience!! The tasting venue was closed due to it being Easter Sunday, but what we received as a tour was much better!! She took us to many church’s until we found one that was open. We learned of how Florence became Florence. We seen many historical sights! Great tour and very knowledgeable tour guide!!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Dear Guest, Thank you for your wonderful comment! We're delighted that, despite the delay with the tasting, the tour was even more interesting and that the guide made it an unforgettable experience. We're delighted to hear you enjoyed visiting the churches and learning about the history of Florence. We hope to welcome you back for another equally fascinating experience! Best regards, ACCORD Team

Disappointed in Florence

Joseph_G, Apr 2025

This tour did not meet our expectations. Even allowing for the very crowded day in the city, our guide seemed disinterested and a little disorganized. Having been on tours in Siena, Rome, and Cortona with passionate, knowledgeable guides who engaged us in the story of their city, this one was a let down.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Dear Joseph, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We’re truly sorry to hear that the tour didn’t fully meet your expectations. Our goal is always to provide visitors with a welcoming, informative, and memorable experience, even on particularly busy days when the city’s crowds can make things more challenging for everyone involved. We regret that the overall feeling of the tour didn’t reflect the standard we aim to maintain. While our guides are professionals who care deeply about their work, we understand that sometimes various factors, such as timing, group dynamics, or external conditions, can influence the perception of the experience. Your feedback is very important to us, and it will be taken into account as we continue to improve our services. We sincerely hope that, despite everything, you were still able to appreciate some of the magic and history that Florence has to offer. It would be our pleasure to welcome you again in the future and offer you a more enjoyable and engaging experience. Best regards, The ACCORD Team

Introduction to Florence

Elizabeth_P, Oct 2024

We arranged this tour to get us out and about as soon as possible after our overnight flight to learn more about the history and highlights of Florence from an outside perspective. Our guide was perfect for that. A very nice introduction!

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Hi Elizabeth, thanks for your kind words! We are really glad that you enjoyed the tour but remember... our town has much more to offer, so come back one day and visit us again!

Florence-dancing in the rain.

Rebecca_K, Jun 2024

We had a most wonderful tour of Florence! It was pouring rain during some parts of our tour. Our tour guide was so gracious and agreed to continue our tour since we had limited time. She took pictures of us and was very knowledgeable about Florence. A very worthwhile adventure!!
