Hello everyone! I’m Emilia, a licensed tour guide for Florence and the surrounding areas. I have decided to follow my passion, and my love for art and for my city led me here. But beyond my professional title, I carry out my job with dedication and enthusiasm. My aim is to let you experience authentic Italian moments and let you feel a sense of our culture, helping you feel “Italian" at least for one day. My plan is to make you enjoy not only through visuals, but also through your taste buds by having you try wonderful delicacies. I propose a series of tours that are both traditional yet also unusual and intriguing. This being said, we can always decide on the itinerary together! There are three main goals that I foster before beginning a tour: - To make you curious about what we'll see. - To make you enthusiastic to see it. - To have fun while seeing it! But more than anything, I want to leave you with a wonderful memory of my splendid city! So come along with me! If my calendar appears unavailable, please contact me anyway. I can organize private transportation by private car and driver. I provide pick-up and drop-off at the hotel or port via the driver. I’ll meet you at the meeting point. For easy communication on the day of the tour, I suggest downloading WhatsApp on your smartphone.
