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.

An Unforgettable Journey Through Renaissance Florence with Giulia! We had the absolute pleasure of spending a day with Guilia exploring the highlights of Renaissance Florence. Giulia wove a captivating narrative that connected the Medici family, the artists, and the political intrigue of the era. Her overview of the most famous artworks—from the ethereal beauty of Botticelli’s Birth of Venus to the jaw-dropping, emotional presence of Michelangelo’s David—was insightful, engaging, and perfectly paced. She has a rare gift for pointing out the subtle, easily missed details in a painting or sculpture that suddenly make the entire artwork make sense. Even with the bustling Florentine crowds, Giulia kept us organized, engaged, and entirely under the spell of the Renaissance. Her passion for her city’s history is infectious, and her warmth made the entire experience feel like exploring Florence with an incredibly knowledgeable friend. Thank you, Giulia, for an unforgettable day. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

During our visit to Florence, three of us enjoyed a tour with Giulia of the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia (David). Giulia was very responsive, prompt, and professional during the process of setting up the tour. I highly recommend Giulia as a guide. Our experience of Uffizi and viewing David was significantly enhanced by Giulia's knowledge. She has a ton of information to share, a great personality, and a demeanor that would make her a fantastic guide for a group with people of all ages. When going back to Florence, we will definitely use Giulia's services again.

This is your guide for Florence and Tuscany. She was so full of information and very passionate about the subject matter. She was so flexible and helpful. Can’t say enough good about our experience. She speaks the best American English of any guide in Italy, almost no accent at all. You can’t go wrong with Giulia.

We had a fantastic tour with Giulia. She kept a good pace, mixed in some humor, and was incredibly knowledgeable. She provided us with a lot of background info that we never would have known otherwise. I highly recommend Giulia for anyone interested in art history in Florence. :)

Your Florence tour itinerary

We'll meet at the arranged location and we will walk the museums for the first part of the visit. We will then head to the other to complete the tour. The order of the museum is at discretion of the guide for logistical events. ATTENTION, the first Sunday of the month, since there is free admission, I cannot guarantee the entrance since they won't allow ticket reservation.
