We were a family of 7, including 2 teenagers and 3 grandparents. I was looking for an easy and engaging tour for the family. Emilia was just perfect! Charming, friendly and very knowledgeable. We will definitely recommend for every family that comes to visit.

I wanted something special for our precocious history loving 7 year old. It was our first visit to Florence and we only had a few days. I explained our hopes to Carla, the booking manager, at Florence Tours with Kids and she said I have the perfect guide for you. We chose The Treasure of Florence tour and met Ilaria at 9AM at a prearranged location. Immediately, she introduced herself to our daughter (she was the main focus) and asked her about her interests and what she would like to learn more about Florence. We had no idea we would find a woman so warm and welcoming. Someone so clever about sharing age-appropriate and very cool secrets of this wonderful city. A bond was quickly formed! At times, our daughter felt anxious and Ilaria was able to quickly remedy this and gain her trust again. Ilaria is an amazing story teller and had a way of keeping our daughter (and her parents) engaged. I wish we had booked more time! We whole heartedly recommend Ilaria and Florence Tours with Kids!

Giulia was an amazing guide! Our six year old daughter was very curious about everything on the tour, asking many questions, and Guilia was attentive and patient. We highly recommend this tour.

This was our 4th tour in Italy and the absolute best one. Loved our friendly tour guide Ginevra. She kept our kids engaged and taught all of us so many interesting facts that we would have otherwise not know about Florence. Thank you.
