Hi! My name is Valentina, I was born and raised in Florence. Since I was a little child my mother used to take me around the city telling me stories and curiosity, and this is how I fell in love with my city. When I grew up I decided to study art history and go deeper inside the history of Florence. After travelling around the world for few years, to improve my language skill, I have decided to come back to my birthplace and become a tour guide. I love to welcome people from all over the world to show them the beauty of this place. Florence is full of history and art and It will be my pleasure to tell you about the Medici family, the renaissance, gossips and much much more. I'm looking forward to meet you!! Licensed tour guide for Florence and Lucca. Licensed tour leader I'm not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or arrange a separate private car and driver.

Our family of four (two boys, ages 12 & 14) enjoyed our tour with Valentina. She was energetic and drew all of us in, quizzing our boys on what they knew of mythology as she told us about artwork in each of the museums. She gave us breaks and the tour was conversational.

Valentina provided a wonderful private tour for 3 of us. Her knowledge of the artwork and artists was excellent and we learned so much!. Valentina made our experience very insightful. I will now look at art in a deeper way due to her knowledge and the colorful stories she told. She also spoke English very well and clear. Thank you Valentina!

Valentina was such a fun and well versed tour guide! Her knowledge transformed into storytelling was exceptional. So glad my husband and I got to meet Valentino; she’s easy going, and what I loved about her was how excited she got telling the history of the Medici family, artists, and Florence!

Valentina was great! Met us at our meeting spot and we were off! We did the highlights of the Uffizi but she stopped when we wanted more time with something else to see! After that we toured a bit on our way to the Academia to see David. She was super knowledgeable and easy to ask questions to. We would definitely book a tour with Valentina again!

We loved having you bring us through the Uffizi and the Accademia Valentina!!!! Your expansive knowledge of art and history really made our experience so special. We learned so much not only about the art, but also about the artists. You also made it so incredibly easy to navigate the museums. I think anyone would be very lucky to have you guide them through the museums and I hope to one day come back to Florence and see more of your beautiful city with you. Grazie mille!!!!

Your Florence tour itinerary

We'll meet near the museum and we'll spend about an hour at the Accademia. After visiting the Accademia we'll have a nice walk into the city centre to reach the Uffizi. We'll cross Piazza del Duomo, the Medieval district and Piazza della Signoria
