Hi… buongiorno, my name is Laura! That's how we will start our tour! I am a licensed tour guide in Florence and its province. I was born, raised, married, graduated in Art History and Humanities in Florence and researched as an art historian: here is where I belong! A first-time traveler to Florence? We could start with a walking tour through the ancient squares and streets and/or visit the main museums, like the Uffizi or the Accademia with the David by Michelangelo, and churches. Art, history, food and local traditions are all "ingredients" and part of your experience with me during my tours. If you have already touched base with the Florentine lifestyle, there are many other options and experiences to make, just let me know! The more about your preferences you will tell me about before getting to Florence, the more customized will be your tour with me! I deeply enjoy my work: it's my passion! I love to introduce people to the beauty and culture of Florence, a city on the bucket list of many travelers. Travelling is the one most satisfying experience in life and memories of your trips will last. I'd love to make the most of your time in Florence a memorable and amazing experience! Thanks and looking forward to meeting you soon! Laura - Licensed Tour Guide for Florence and its province - Licensed Tour Leader - MA in Art History - MA in Humanities I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

The itinerary is designed to let you enjoy the highlights of both museums! We will first enter the Uffizi Gallery! In this museum, you will discover the masterpieces of Botticelli, Leonardo, Michelangelo, and of many other artists. On the way to the Accademia, we will take some time to enjoy the Republic square, the most central square of the city, and "recharge the batteries" having cappuccino or espresso, sitting at a table of the oldest cafe of Florence! This is the time to ask all your questions about the city: what to do or eat, where to shop or have the best gelato! Then we will walk to the Accademia! Here you will hear about Michelangelo, the breathtaking David, and the inspiring Captives and how these masterpieces came to life!
What a wonderful tour guide we had in Laura C. She is passionate about art and a storehouse of information...we loved all the behind the scene information that brought the art to life. I don't think I'll go to a major museum again without taking a tour guide along. Laura was friendly and conscientious....and as I said earlier, passionate about her work. I would not hesitate to use Laura on our next visit to Italy.
Laura was extremely knowledgeable about the museums, the artists, and the city. Even though we had been to the Uffizi and the Academia before, it was as if we were see things with new eyes! Her command our English is exceptional and she was very personable. We highly recommend her!
Laura was an excellent tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable about art history and presented the information in an interesting and understandable way. She was also very warm and accommodating to our needs. She kept the tour interesting for our 16 year old son as well. If I returned to Florence I would definitely book Laura as our guide again!
Highly recommend! Our tour with Laura was an excellent decision. She expertly steered us through the crowds, lines and chaos on a free museum entry Sunday. We had a fantastic experience with the Uffizi, the Accademia and a walking tour. She expertly managed our time. We found Laura to be very knowledgeable and passionate, sharing her love of Florence and her knowledge of history and art. We also got additional touring, shopping, and dining advice.
A true master at her craft, one of the best in the business. I've taken private tours all around the world from many different companies and Laura is one of the best. Her knowledge of history is exceptional. Beyond that, she is a really good hearted person and someone you actually enjoy spending time with. I hope to see her again one day.
