Experience Art & Culture tours in the best of
Florence with Withlocals

"Matteo really goes the extra mile to make sure you have a great experience. We toured the Uffizi with him and his knowledge of and passion for art were evident right from the start. He knew the stories behind all of the works and made sure that we saw all of the most significant ones in addition to many of his personal favorites that were less well known. He even spent an extra hour with us just to make sure we got to see everything. My mother in law has some trouble walking and Matteo made sure to keep the pace of the tour perfect for her and get elevators whenever possible to cut down on stair climbing. I would recommend Matteo for anyone who loves art and wants to leave about it in the beautiful environment of the Uffizi!"

"We had such a great experience with Cristina. She was so wonderful with our 4yo son who has very little attention and patience. She answered all of our questions and gave us such a detailed understanding of the Medici family. Highly recommend if you have the opportunity."

"Florence native Matteo provided fascinating background for the principal artworks of the Uffizi, weaving together art history and the history of Florence. We ran over the allotted tour time, but the time flew by because everything was so interesting. He went to extra trouble to obtain tour headsets for us from the gallery, so that my hard-of-hearing father could also hear him speak. I could not recommend Matteo more highly."

"Matteo was a great guide, gave excellent insight into the history and background stories of many of the artworks. Was great to have his knowledge shared with me. He also went out of his way to find me an excellent local trattoria for lunch, much appreciated, thanks Matteo!"

"We thank you for your excellent tour, Maja! You excellent explanations and insightful comments made our visit to the Uffizi THE highlight of our trip to Florenz. Thank you so much for that!!"

"Christina was such a delight. She tailored the experience to exactly what we wanted and she made the time fly by. We had such a lovely time"

"We loved our tour of the Uffizi with Michele. He is full of knowledge, makes it interactive by asking for our opinions or takes on the art and made the tour worth every minute. We would book any tour in Florence with him!"

"We had an absolutely fantastic tour of the Uffizi and the academia to see David. Cristina was warm, welcoming and did a great job trying to get our children engaged. We also helped us customise the tour to ensure we had break for the kids and was helped us book all the tickets we needed to skip the lines. She is super super knowledgable about the art works, buildings, and history, and delivered everything at the perfect level for us. I would recommend Cristina to anybody who wants a great guide in Florence. "

"Dina had a family emergency and helped us out by getting us another tour guide who was phenomenal. Michell was so knowledgeable and I never once felt lost. He led us through the chapters of art history so effortlessly. We had so much a great time. Thank you Dina!"

"Cristina tailored her Uffizi tour to suit our different requirements. She gave a good chronological history of the art that we were seeing and showed us how we could identify the different periods based on the style and technique of the artist. Cristina was very encouraging and gave positive reinforcement when we recognised features in the paintings which confirmed the point she was making. We were surprised how much we learned about the Medici and their place in the social, political and religious history of Florence. Cristina’s English was superb and she communicated with us clearly and eloquently. Thank you Cristina for a great start to out holiday in Florence."
