Perfect Way to Start the Day!
"Antonella was warm, funny and full of fun facts and local insights. She had a vision for our tour that felt like the perfect way to start the day, from espresso to bruschetta to gelato and everything in between! We felt cared for, thought of, and inspired to learn and do and try more of the city’s beautiful and delicious out of the way spots. She was a delight and the whole tour, start to finish, was a treat! "

"Antonella gave us a good introduction into a less touristic area of Florence. The wine experience and antipasti dishes were tasty. She answered all our questions and shared her knowledge about Italian live and culture. It was a pleasure to experience and discover Florence together with her."

A Hidden Florence Gem with Ana
"Ana gave us an unforgettable tour of Florence that went far beyond the usual sights. On a sweltering August Sunday, she skillfully navigated us away from the crowded tourist hubs and into the quiet, tucked-away corners of the old town—places even a repeat visitor like me had never seen. Her deep knowledge and thoughtful pacing made the city feel fresh and intimate.
The food experience was a true highlight. Ana introduced us to local culinary treasures—charming spots tucked into alleyways and behind unassuming doors—each offering a taste of authentic Florentine flavor. From savory bites to sweet indulgences, every stop felt like a secret shared just with us.
She also gave us fantastic recommendations for continuing our exploration on our own, pointing us toward local restaurants and hidden gems we would’ve easily missed. Thanks to Ana, we left Florence not just with beautiful memories, but with a deeper connection to the city’s soul.
Mille grazie, Ana!"
