Una Splendida Giornata!
"My husband and had a great day going to San Gimignano with Fabio. From pick up at our hotel in Florence to drop off, everything was wonderful. If you want to take a private day trip to this beautiful hilltop town known for its towers, don’t hesitate to use WithLocals and book with Fabio. He is knowledgeable, enjoyable to be with and kind enough to speak to me in Italian so I could practice mine! "
"We were so fortunate to have Marco as our guide at the Uffizi. He is a great art historian who was able to shepherd us through the large collection and give us a more complete background on the amazing works of art. He is professional, patient, and kind. We highly recommend Marco to guide anyone visiting Florence’s museums and cultural attractions. "

Superb Tour
"Thank you Dina for an absolutely superb tour of Florence. You were so informative and thoughtful, making new plans as we went along the tour to encompass the boys interests. We wouldn't hesitate to book again with you. "
"Dina was prompt in her communication and was accommodating with our schedule. She had great tour and food recommendations. I would highly recommend Dina for your tour, a real gem for the city of Florence. "
"We had a wonderful tour with Martina. She was very knowledgeable and did a great job giving us context and antidotes about the medieval and renaissance Florence. Incredibly personable and flexible with organizing the tour for us. My kiddo really likes pedestrian bridges and Martina arranged for us to finish up at Ponte Vecchio with a discussion of it so that when we parted ways we could further explore that area. She also gave us suggestions for lunch restaurants with good vegan options. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better tour or guide. "
