Ciao! Benvenuti! My name is Dina. I want you to experience Florence in an UNFORGETTABLE way. My goal is for you never to forget Florence and your time touring its mysteries and historical wonders. I'm always excited about learning new things, discovering new places, and meeting new people. I enjoy art in all of its formats, from the ancient to the modern, from the museums to the streets, from conventional art to tattoos; all of it has beauty and meaning. I am passionate about food, wine, history, and, of course, art! I live by the mottos "life is too short for bad food and drink, " and "if you take art and history and mix it with a little wine, you have perfection. " I live and work in Florence as a full-time tour guide and want to be able to show you Florence through the eyes of a local. My goal is to give you a different kind of tour experience: informative and fun at the same time! I don't want to just offer a description, an art lesson, or a regurgitation of dates and names; I want you to have an authentic experience introducing you to our local traditions, legends, food, and wine. I will show you the connection between what you see and the stories of the IMPORTANT men and women who built and lived in Florence. This will give you the chance to see Florence as I do, with a historical passion and a reason for that passion. I would love to walk with you into the past. As we walk through the renaissance alleys and streets of Florence's inner city, we will follow in the footsteps of some of the greatest artists and learn their fascinating tales. These stories are not just at the most popular sites, such as the Uffizi or L'Acadamia, but also in the Palazzo Vecchio, the Bargello Museum, and the Pitti Palace. Truly, everywhere you turn in Florence, there is history at your fingertips Together we can attach happy memories to your Florentine vacation, ensuring that you will never forget the city or your time here. Memorable storytelling, delicious gelato, and a big smile are the main ingredients of my tours. Choose me as your guide; I guarantee you will have an unforgettable experience! My tours can be customized and adapted to suit your schedule. Please send me a message with your interests, and I will personalize the tour just for you! If you are traveling with children, let me know, I can also make the tour fun for them! EVEN IF YOU SEE I AM NOT AVAILABLE ON THE CALENDAR, PLEASE SEND ME A PRIVATE MESSAGE.

Dina was great! Communicating with her before the tour was very easy, and she helped me plan exactly what I wanted for the time I had. Once I arrived, we were able to meet exactly as planned and then go with the flow just like a local.
