Description:

If you had a full day in Florence, I would be so delighted to be your guide. I would want to show you a wonderful mix of magical landmarks of Florence. My tour can be fully customized but imagine how much fun it would be if you got to start with a museum, then walk through a marvelous palazzo from 1200, then stop for coffee in a famous little coffee bar, then wander on to visit a beautiful church where you might light a candle for loved ones. Then you might be hungry and I will take you to a very special Florentine restaurant away from tourists to make you experience simple, delicious, home-cooked Italian food. Freshly nourished, we will wonder on to have a stroll along the banks of the Arno, a hidden place with beautiful plants and views. Ice cream might sound perfect at this moment and then we segue into another museum, most likely the Uffizi for a bit of mind-blowingly beautiful art and fascinating history. Then I would want to take you for aperitivo to the biggest private garden in all of Europe or let you take some deep breaths in one of Florence’s gorgeous gardens which belong to the old villas of the city (i.e. Boboli garden). This list of possibilities is simply a taste of what a day with me could be like. My tours won’t be a lecture but the storytelling of the history of Florence and the lives of the most intriguing Florentine families with juicy details and a little gossip. I can’t wait to hear from you to get the planning started and invite you to call me with video chat if you like so we can have a more personal planning session and get to know each other a little.
