Experience Art & Culture Tours in Florence with Withlocals

"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."

"The tour of the Uffizi gallery with Maja was excellent. She showed us all of the highlights and helped us notice little details that we wouldn't have noticed otherwise. Highly recommend!"

"Christina met us at rendezvous area promptly. She was personable and engaging from the point of our introductions. We entered Academia and was given a very good introduction of what to expect and explanation of use of plaster sculptures as learning tool. Went into the room where David is located. We sat on the bench as she explained history of how Michaelangelo came to do the David. We then went up to view the sculpture and after she pointed out the details. Went to see the room with all the plaster sculptures as she gave us description of processes. Then we went to Medici Chapel that is awesome and just as impressive. Many tourists miss that site. Christina was extremely knowledgeable and gave us good information and history. The tour of both facilities was well paced, organized and done in a very professional manner. Thank you"

"Incredibly informative and Michele told great stories!! I highly recommend the tour!!"

"Cristina did a great job juggling several levels of interest and personalities. Her knowledge of the stories behind the David made it come to life and learning about the Medici Family was awesome too!! Thank you!"

"Cristina was the perfect guide for our group of 5 individuals. She was warm, welcoming, and catered our Medici family tour to our needs, including a stop for gelato as we needed a restroom break. She is knowledgeable and informative in a manner that entices you to truly listen and learn. Highly recommend! "
