With Antonella we felt like we were eating like the locals. Is there a better way to learn more about the culture than through food? Her knowledge of what to eat in the food markets helped make our trip even more incredible and now we can eat like a Florentine.

Spectacular tour. Magnificent views and Antonella was so knowledgeable, friendly and warm. We had a challenge getting in one place we had tickets for she quickly pivoted and we were able to see other things.

Laura was wonderful! Knowledgeable but also very engaging and she kept our 13 year old interested. I highly recommend her! Also the ease of someone else booking the tickets and arranging everything is very helpful.
