We did a six hour tour of Florence with Ivana, she was an excellent and very knowledgeable guide. We spent a few hours in Uffizi with timed tickets, got a quick pizza lunch, were able to spend time inside the Duomo, and had timed tickets for Galleria dell' Accademia to see Michelangelo's David and the other amazing works of art in this beautiful city. We also walked around the city to see Ponte Vecchio, Pitti Palace and other beautiful sights in the city. Ivana is a great guide who we highly recommend!

Ivana is a terrific guide. She is incredibly knowledgable, interesting and passionate. We toured the center of Florence, Santa Croce and Michelangelo's David. We learned so much. I highly recommend Ivana without hesitation.

We had a wonderful day with Ivana. I had been to Florence many times but my guest had not. Ivana allowed me to pick the things I wanted to visit (my "Florence greatest hits"). she was knowledgeable and very friendly. She even spoke to me slowly in Italian instead of english when I wanted to practice Italian. A very fun day.
