Hello everyone! I'm Giulia, and I'm very lucky to have been born and raised in the historic center of one of the most beautiful cities in the world. While it's very easy to take the place that you live for granted, I'm also fortunate that I'm continually excited by my city's beauty and history. Since I am privileged to know Florence so intimately, I would love to be able to share my unique perspective with visitors who have only a limited time here. I received my diploma in Classical Literature and it seemed natural that these interests led me to want to study my city's art and, in turn, to complete the work to become a licensed historic guide. The historic center was my playground as a child and, with my passion for art and history, as an adult the city is now my dreamland as an adult. Let me show you Florence from my perspective so you'll have the opportunity to see it as a native. I can't wait to meet you and show you my wonderful hometown!! - Licensed Guide for Florence All of my tours are walking and museum's tours within the historic center of Florence.

Discover the highlights of Florence and Michelangelo's most famous masterpiece
Overview of your Florence tour
We'll stroll through Florence, admiring highlights such as the Cathedral Complex, Palazzo Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria and the Ponte Vecchio as we move through the political and religious hearts of the city. We'll end our itinerary at the the Accademia Gallery, home of Michelangelo's original marble statue of David to see this breathtaking work of art in the extraordinary setting created specifically to showcase this masterwork. Being born and raised here in Florence allows me to be as close to these amazing artworks and artists as possible and I will do my best to help you understand and appreciate those ancient times full of art and beauty of all kind.

Terrific tour. Giulia was super knowledgable, flexible, communicative, and enthusiatic. She is a great guide for adults and kids (we had three children with us). Book with Giulia and enjoy the learning about the sights of Florence! She also provided great ideas and information for enjoying our time in Florence.

Giulia was incredible for several reasons: 1- was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history and share the stories in perfect English 2 - I needed guidance on booking the museum tickets and she guided me the entire way 3- I had two teenagers where this was a stretch assignment and she perfectly balance the tour to suit our/their needs 4- I unintentionally booked her for the wrong day and she easily and graciously switched days for us 5- she provides restaurant and leather store ideas Truly a wonderful experience!

We had a half day tour of Florence with Giulia C. recently. She is a fantastic guide. She was attentive, friendly, courteous and informative. She welcomed our questions and responded appropriately. She is a true professional and we highly recommend her for your tour.

We had an excellent time with Giulia on our tour of Florence. She loves her city and is very knowledgeable about the art, statues, and history of Florence. She took us through the Academie and was full of interesting facts. She was fun to tour with and gave us the best recommendation for Gelato in Florence. It was the best of the trip! Thanks again for the awesome time in Florence!
