A walking tour of Florence with me as your personal guide is the perfect way to become instantly familiar with the layout of the city and the "must see" highlights. The historic centre can be crossed in 30 minutes but you'll be amazed at the concentration of world heritage landmarks you'll discover along the way. I love telling a good story and my many interests and long experience living in Tuscany make my tours entertaining and original. As an artist I have an eye for details and love pointing out the hidden gems around the city as much as I enjoy talking about the lives of the famous Florentines from Dukes and Duchesses to Artists and Poets as a way of bringing the city to life with tales of their scandals, crimes and passions! Florence, however, is not just a museum but a buzzing metropolis brimming with stylish cafes, bars, restaurants and shops and in the quieter bohemian quarters you can still come across authentic craftsmen hard at work in their ateliers keeping ancient traditions alive.
Meeting point: Piazza Santa Maria Novella in front of the church that boasts the most beautiful façade in Florence. 1: Strozzi Palace. Enter the elegant Renaissance courtyard. 2: Piazza della Repubblica, the buzzing hub of Florence. 3: Piazza del Duomo, the Cathedral and Baptistry and the story of the gravity defying dome (outside). 4: The medieval district where time has stopped and Dante's birthplace. 5: Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchio (outside). An awesome open air gallery of Renaissance and Mannerist sculptures and fountains. 6: The Uffizi gallery and the impressive overhead Vasari corridor (outside). 7: Ponte Vecchio, the oldest bridge in Florence lined with quaint goldsmiths shops. 8: Palazzo Pitti, the last of the Medici's residences (outside). 9: Piazza Santo Spirito, a picturesque spot for lunch. Please remember this itinerary is flexible. I will be happy to customise the tour for you!
