My Wife and I booked an 8-hour walking tour in Florence to celebrate our wedding Anniversary. Martina was our local host. The whole walking tour was laid back and we got to experience some of the local haunts including food and drink stops and a one-of-a-kind mosaic family workshop and saw from the outside most of the main sites around the centre of Florence. We would have maybe liked a bit more historical information but having a pleasant and knowledgeable local who tailored the tour according to our wishes, and just enjoying the ambience made this tour special. Thank you, Martina,
