This tour is the best walking tour that you can ever have in Florence. It is a great introduction to the city for both first-timers as well as returners. It covers the main attractions of the city and also the hidden gems that are well and truly "off the beaten track" and gives you facts you wouldn't know or notice walking around by yourself. While you'll be led through the city you will be even accompanied through three centuries full of thrilling stories about the Medici family who influenced Florence’s history; little by little the Renaissance will become alive in front of you. You will not be involved in a boring, neutral lecture, but in a pleasant stroll through the center of Florence, in a friendly and easy-going atmosphere.

Guida simpatica, carini gli aneddoti storici. Ci ha mostrato anche dei vicoletti che da soli non avremmo mai visitato. Consiglio

This is a very interesting tour with a certified guide. Samone was very informative and entertaining. Don’t be deterred by the nominal price - they get paid at the end by tips - the quality of the tour is high. There is not as much walking as standing so don’t be deterred by that either.
