Everything,,,,!! Our guide was the most knowledgeable, gracious, and lovely guide ever. She took us to the places that were our most treasured memories! Not only that, but because of the time of the year it was, February, we had her all to ourselves!. Our three tours were spot on, and the artisans were both knowledgeable and gracious hosts. We I am sure received the best of the best getting to know the craftsmen and the lovely owners of each shop we visited! Bravo!

This private walking tour of the Oltrarno area was truly one of the highlights of our stay in Florence. Our guide Simona was so knowledgeable and shared some interesting insights about the history of the city while taking us to see some incredible artists. It was fascinating to see the traditional ways of cutting stone for mosaics or carving wood by hand still being used to make stunning work. I love how personalized the tour was, and Simona was so gracious to answer all our questions about the city and even help me find a lapidary artist because I was looking for a specific stone to set in a ring. I would wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone interested in seeing beyond the tourist areas to craftspeople who have been working their whole lives perfecting their craft.
