    We were recently in Florence and had the opportunity to go on a walking tour followed by a tour of the Accademia Gallery. Our tour guide, Debora, was very knowledgeable and personable. Having a qualified tour guide greatly enhanced the experience! I hope to return to Florence one day and will set up my tours through Ciao Florence.
