Hello! My name is Armando, I am an expert of Italian art, history, archeology and culture, and I have been working as an official tour guide for over twenty-five years. I am originally from Rome, I moved to Vinci, Tuscany a few years ago - birth place of the famous Leonardo da Vinci, 25 miles West of Florence -, and I am specialized in private tours of Florence, Siena, Pisa, Lucca, Vinci and all of Tuscany. I provide my guests a great summary of some twenty centuries of history most cities boasts, telling them about art and archaeology, past and present, local culture and every day life, and how all is inextricably combined. I am not going to give you a lecture - unless you want to - I will be informative but I won't overdo with too many dates and names, I will make your visit fun with anecdotes and legends: I know you are here on holiday and your holiday is meant to be enjoyable and fun! Whether it is your first visit, second or third time in Florence and Tuscany, I will be happy to create a customized itinerary based upon your interests to make you experience a unique, relaxing vacation. Ciao! No restrictions at all!

I am not going to give you a lecture, I will make your visit fun with anecdotes and legends; I know you are here on holiday and your holiday is meant to be enjoyable and fan.

Your Florence tour itinerary

I'll meet you at your hotel/accommodation in Florence, or in Piazza Signoria, or in another agreed spot in Florence. - Uffizi Gallery (inside; paintings by Giotto, Masaccio, Botticelli, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raffaello, and others) With me as your guide it will be easier for you to listen the tour despite the everyday crowd, and I'll be happy to accommodate your requests by going faster through sites that don't interest you or stopping longer to see what's more relevant to you.
