Laura Micheli Guida turistica certificata locale Firenze

Sightseeing tour agency

👍👍 Laura is not a guide. He is a person who gives you his great knowledge with the simplicity of a family member. Despite the commitment to transfer the story remains very aware of the needs of children and young people. We discovered the city with her, savoring it with our eyes and mind. We have trav...

Tuscan Tour Guide

Tour agency

👍👍 Paul was such a wealth of knowledge and full of life! We loved our private tour in Florence. It was less like a lecture and more like a conversation. Paul has a fantastic way of keeping everyone involved in the dialog. I wish we had had twice the time to dive even deeper. What a special experience....

Florence Tours by Made of Tuscany

Tour operator

🫤 Not my favorite experience. Booked the academy tour for 11am, and immediately received a call and was asked to move to 4pm. As per the instructions in the ticket, I arrived 15 minutes prior at 3:45pm but by the time I actually got into the museum it was 4:45pm. The delay was because I was pawned off...

City Florence Tours

Tour operator

👍👍 Tomaso and Marco went above and beyond to take care of us. Tomaso gave great insight on the various works of art as well as their history. Marco walked us to the train station to ensure we wouldn't get lost or late. They worked together to provide us with excellent customer service. We truly appreci...

Tabernacolo delle Fonticine

Landmark

👍 Created by Girolamo and perhaps Giovanni della Robbia in 1522, it was so called due to the presence of the seven cherub heads which pour, through small pipes in their mouths, as many waves of water into the marble basin. The tabernacle was originally located in nearby Via Santa Caterina d'Alessandri...

Palazzo dei Vescovi in San Miniato al Monte

Abbey

👍👍 Out of all the places I went to while in Europe this was one of the most memorable spots. The grounds were nicely kept and the view was incredible!

St Mark's English Church, Florence

Church

👍👍 Delightful--singers and piano solos are superb. Have been going to opera since 1971, listen to opera just about every day. This opera company--quality, warmth, phrasing and tone-- is spot on and further enhanced by intelligent, insightful introductions of the arias. On this night of Friday, Septembe...

Tower of Barbadori twelfth century.

Historical landmark

👍 Al fondo del pasaje hacia el río Arno, hay una terraza con un cafecito rico, que pertenece a un hotel de lujo. Si tienen suerte y no hay comenzales, el guardia los deja tomarse fotos con vista al Ponte Vecchio.
