If you are looking for a fizzy experience, here I am, ready to make your trip a memorable one. Since I was a child I have been in loved with the beautifulf Florence that I admire and I think has different experiences to offer for any kind of traveler.

Travelling is the only healthy activity that we still have in the 21th century and it is our duty to enrich this unique experience, take the best of it and share it with the other ones. I have started many years ago my amazing activity as a local guide and day by day I am more thirsty of knowledge and beautiful sights. I adore to spend my time surrounded by people, food and good energy, telling stories about my beautiful Florence. Full time mom, so also a friendly guide. I can organise visit of any kind, just contact me. The platform shows only few offers, but my background is able to cover more: uffizi Gallery, Accademia Gallery, Medici's chapel-burriel, Santa Croce, Palazzo Vecchio, Palazzo Medici-Riccardi's palace and many others, EVEN YOU WILL SEE THAT I'M NOT AVAILABLE, TRY THE SAME TO CONTACT ME AND TOGETHER WILL FIND A SOLUTION.

Walking tour discovering the life of the Medici and Palatina Gallery
Overview of your Florence tour
I bet you all heard about the Medici Dynasty or even if you don't know them, is worth to spend some time hearing some stories about it. Definitively it is something important that you have to tick on your list "to do" when you are visiting Florence. The Medici Family weren't simply a family that lived in Florence, but "the family" that governed the city for 3 centuries and wrote the story of it. Merchants, bankers, lords, the Medici still today keeps us interested with the adventurous story of their dynasty made of rivals, wars, power, conspiracy, love, popes and the list can continue more and more. Books were written about them, videogames were made and also both movies and series. None of this is a secret for me and the passion that I have for this family is your lucky ticket for your journey and tour. Join me and I will be glad to share with you all my knowledge gathered through the years about this amazing, powerful, dangerous but also unmissable family.
