Great tour by Pietro. A member of our group is not able to walk long distances so it was great to see the whole city easily. He let us take some stops (gelato, free perfume museum) and have us lots of picture stops. Definitely go up to piazza san michanelgo. It’s an amazing view!

Our tour guide was really friendly and extremely Informative!.. We were particularly interested in the Medici family as well as getting to see other well known sights. Our guide managed to fit in more than we could have expected. Highly recommend

The tour guide was nice and friendly. It’s just we hardly understand his explanation in English while trying to describe the historical stories.

Excellent tour guide (Martina). We really enjoyed all parts of the tour. Nothing to complain about. Highly recommended.

Julia was an amazing tour guide! Very interesting and fun tour to learn about the Medici family
