Hello ! Buongiorno ! I was always attracted by the Beauty of the city, especially the Renaissance time and that was one of the main reason to decide and to realize a dream, to study Art conservation in Florence - in one of the most beautiful cities in the world ! Thanks to my profession as an Conservator of Paintings I had the chance to get in touch and come closer to the most beautiful artworks made during the Renaissance Time. I became a licensed tour guide of Florence in 2007 and have been showing the amazing sights to visitors from all over the world with humor and enthusiasm. Whether it is your first visit, or its your second or third time in Florence, whether you're interested in the major sights, or exploring specific neighborhoods, I will be happy to create a customized route that will be enjoyable and rewarding. The proposed guided tours are only examples of possible walking tours. For customized itineraries I invite you to contact me to design your own special guided private tour. Registered licensed tour guide since 2007 Diploma in art restoration of paintings and sculptures - 1995 I am not a driver but I can arrange for a private car with a driver. The drivers with whom I collaborate are safe, reliable and puntual and speak fluent english.

Overview of your Florence tour
The Oltrarno, literally "across the Arno", stands apart from Florence's busy central and eastern quarters. Traditionally it retains a peaceful and workaday atmosphere, full of artisans' studios, antiques stores, bars, and small restaurants. At the same time it features plenty of historic sights, not least the art-filled Palazzo Pitti and the church of Santo Spirito. Since Middle Ages, Florence has been famous for its artisan production with its tradition which is still alive and flourishing. From the leather to the marmorized paper, from the goldsmiths to the ceramic, from the shoemaker to the hat makers, from the conservators of art to the florentine marble inlay, come with me to visit this little jewels shops to admire the beauty that skilled hands can create. This private guided walking tour is very much for the traveler looking to scratch a little more beneath the surface of the city.
