I am a native Newyorker who calls Florence "home". I first came to Florence as a university student to study its art and history over 20 years ago. . . and I never left. After years of experience as an instructor of Art History for an American study abroad program, I decided to share my interests and passion for art with travelers. So when I am not teaching, I love taking visitors around the town, showing them all the sites from an insider's point of view. My tours are not boring lectures with an overload of dates and facts, but fun and fascinating visits to the city's top sites weaved with intriguing tales and stories that put all the art into context. Learn about the life and times of Florence's great masters. Understand the art-making process and various artistic techniques. Get real insight into the history, art, and culture of this beautiful city. I can easily tailor a tour to fit your style and interests, whether you are a first-time visitor or a wanderlust art-lover. Join me for some interesting walks through town and museum visits with an "educational" twist for intellectually curious travelers! Official licensed tour guide of Florence and native English speaker. Degrees in Art History from Fordham University (B.A.) and Syracuse University (M.A.). I am not a driver. I can arrange for a professional driver to pick you up and drop you off at your port of call.

    Lore was one of the best tour guides I have ever experienced. I had to convince at least half of my tour of 8 to even participate before the tour, and afterwards everyone was spellbound. Her knowledge of the different periods of history as they relate to the art of the time, is exceptional. Lore is a master storyteller teaching and entertaining all from varied ages,...

    We had a wonderful tour of the Uffizi Gallery with Loredana Agosta. She has a perfect background for us--a native New Yorker with degrees in Art History who has made Florence her home for over 20 years. Loredana took us all through the Uffizi and explained in thorough and clearly understandable detail many of the masterpieces in the Gallery. It was a great tour that...

    Loredana was an excellent guide. She spent almost 1/2 days and was helpful to improvise when our tickets were messed up. These are the most professional, efficient running, knowledgeable tours you can take. I’ve tried them all.

    What a wonderful insight to the history and workings of the Medici family through Art. Expertly explained and interesting stories told to give us a full understanding of the time when all these magnificent paintings were executed. Simply Brilliant! Loredana is very enthusiastic and an expert in her field.
