My first time to Florence was in July -92 and it just felt right. I loved everything I saw and all the people I met so six months later I was living in Firenze and I have never had any regrets. Florence is my hometown and I live in the busy area of San Lorenzo. I have been working as a licensed tour guide in Florence since 2004 and in Siena since 2008. I consider myself very lucky because being a tour guide is not just a job. It is a lifestyle! One of the best things in my job is that every day is different and that I have the privilege to meet people from all parts of the world. I believe that a good tour guide has to love people and be willing to interact and share experiences. If I had to describe myself in three words they would be positive, outgoing and dynamic. My idea about giving tours is that they have to be more than just pleasant and informative. I think it is equally important to have fun without being superficial and to deliver an experience. I want you to fall in love with Florence and Tuscany like I did in 1992 and make you want to come back over and over again. I hope to see you soon! Ciao ciao Bachelor Degree in History.

Overview of your Florence tour

After a long restoration the Vasari Corridor is now open to public again! Don't miss the great opportunity to walk the secret passage laid out for the Medici in 1565 by their favorite architect Giorgio Vasari on the top of the Ponte Vecchio. Enjoy the gasping view from the windows of the walkway and let yourself be carried away by the echoes of the past. Combine the Vasarian Corridor with a visit to The Uffizi Gallery. The Uffizi Gallery houses the best Renaissance paintings in the world with masterpieces by Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.
