    Stefano gave us a wonderful tour of Florence! He told us about the history of everything we saw, allowed us to stop for photos, and provided a great dinner recommendation afterwards. He came prepared for the chilly evening with a blanket which we greatly appreciated! Would absolutely recommend booking with him.

    Ivan was our guide and he was extremely kind and knowledgeable! I am traveling with my 82 year old mother who is mobility challenged and we were able to fit her collapsible walker in the rickshaw between us which was really helpful. The rain on our first day created a little bit of a snafu but Stefano was incredibly kind and generous in allowing us to reschedule. He stayed in constant communication with me and sincerely wished for our excursion and our vacation to be fun and enjoyable.

    Stefano was very good at communicating everything about the tour experience, he even contacted me to see where we were staying in order to make the tour easier for us with the original meeting spot. We were there on a busy day, so the tour ahead of us was running long and he let us know to be at the meeting spot 20 minutes later than originally planned, Ivan was our tour guide, who was born in Florence and had an inside view of their history and was more than eager to share everything about the history with us! The hour went by extremely fast, however the knowledge I learned, i was able to meet back up with our group of friends and give them a walking tour of what i had just learned! It was fantastic! Ivan told us a few inside secrets on how to locate the best restaurants as well as what to avoid. After the tour Stefano contacted me to make sure everything was up to par with our tour and to ask if i had any questions. I asked about a leather shop and street art. He gave me suggestions for both and i was able to find my wife an amazing leather chest bag to replace her plan ole black Lulu Lemon chest bag. He also gave me a couple suggestions on where i might be able to find some Christmas ornaments, in April….. I found everything i needed with his suggestions. This company cares about the customers they come in contact with! I highly recommend!!! Thank you to both Ivan and Stefano! I will suggest to any friend’s i have coming to Florence!
