Check out some of our absolute favourite experiences across the world.
Mara was extremely knowledgeable about Florence and was solely interested in tailoring the tour specifically to our desires.
I would definitely recommend this tour with Mara! She was fun to walk around with, helpful and knowledgeable. She asked me what I had seen, hadn't seen, what I was most interested in, etc.
Mara was just fantastic! She was highly engaging, well-informed about my preferences, and definitely showed me some true hidden gems! We really clicked, too, as she is outgoing and, like me, a true Renaissance woman. I really enjoyed my time with her.
Our guide Maura was fantastic! Highly recommend this tour!!
Our hosts bring destinations to life, sharing local stories and crafting your perfect experience.
What I love most about my city is its incredible art and monuments, the skilled artisans, charming local shops, and lively nightlife. Florence is especially magical in spring, when the city truly comes alive. I love my job and enjoy spending my free time visiting museums and art exhibitions, taking long walks, and going out with friends in the Oltrarno area. I know the entire historic city center very well and feel at home navigating its neighborhoods. I consider myself an expert in Florentine museums, especially the Uffizi Galleries and the Accademia Gallery. As a trained sommelier, I’m also happy to share my knowledge of Italian wines.

I’m Giada, a proud Florentine who finds joy in sharing the magic of my city. What I love most about Florence is how every street whispers stories of the past—from Renaissance wonders to everyday local life. You’ll often find me browsing the stalls at San Lorenzo or Sant'Ambrogio, or unwinding with a classic aperitivo as the sun sets. I know the San Marco, Duomo, Santo Spirito, and San Frediano areas like the back of my hand and love mixing iconic spots like the Duomo and Uffizi with hidden gems like the Bardini Gardens or the artisan corners of San Frediano. I’d love to show you the Florence I call home!

I came here many years ago and quickly fell in love with the city’s rhythm - its museums filled with masterpieces, the scent of paint from local studios, and the buzz of conversation in Santo Spirito’s lively piazza. When I’m not in my own studio, you’ll find me wandering the center’s narrow streets, connecting with people from around the world and uncovering the hidden corners that keep Florence feeling alive and new. For me, this city isn’t just an open-air museum; it’s a living, breathing work of art and I can’t wait to share its creative spirit, talented artisans and a glass of Chianti with you.

I am Chiara from Florence, Italy. I am a tourist guide and hotel receptionist. I generally lead different kinds of walking tours through Florence to allow friends and tourists to discover the beauty of my city from all its different sides. It is entertaining to find also out that in the cradle of the Renaissance there are some hidden street art gems. I lead also tours in the most popular museums: The Uffizi and Accademia galleries and the Duomo complex. I love to eat good food, cook my mother's recipes, and give tips about what to eat and where. Generally, as my body shape may tell, what I suggest seems wise to be followed.

What I love most about Florence is how you can feel the history in every corner, while still experiencing the vibrancy of contemporary life. I love visiting Florence’s world-renowned galleries and museums, where the masterpieces of the past are preserved and celebrated. Beyond the art, I’m a fan of exploring vintage stores and hidden spots that reflect the city's eclectic character. I know the historical center—Piazza Signoria, Piazza del Duomo, and Piazza della Repubblica—like the back of my hand, and I’m always eager to show visitors the lesser-known, secret attractions that give Florence its true soul. If you’re looking to discover a side of Florence beyond the typical tourist paths, I’d love to show you its hidden treasures and share my deep knowledge of this extraordinary city.
