Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Eden is the perfect professional. She showed up on time, had her research done on my special requests and gave an enjoyable tour which had little unique aspects too, for example the meditation room. Sh tailors the experience based on her clients' personality. She was way too generous and bought me a peppermint tea which she didnt have to. I had stomach issues and she noticed that I was dissolving Alka Seltzer in water. Thank you for the peppermint tea and the tour. I wish you the best. "
"First of all I am grateful to Mara for stepping in when another host had cancelled irresponsibly. (Antonia or similar named) Mara was amazing, high energy and sweet person. Thak you so much for your knowledge and flexibility. "
"Mara was a joy. She had a wealth of knowledge, mixing history and culture information with a joyful friendly experience. She is able to leverage her own knowledge and tailor the experience to what you need or take over and fully let you turn your brain off. She gave great recommendations for us beyond our time with her, directing us to great leather shops and our favorite bites in our next city. She gave us a new appreciation for the region and a beautiful morning. "
"Ana was cheerful and knowledgeable about Florence. She was excited to be living there and that came across. She had thought carefully about where to take us, particularly as I have a couple of food allergies. She even sent us recommendations afterwards for places to visit. Her tour was one of the highlights of our holiday."
"We had a fantastic evening finding local places to eat in the amazing company of Eden. She gave us loads of useful tips as we wandered round the city. We have already been to several of the other places that were recommended to us while we were with her. Lovely evening and would highly recommend "
"We absolutely LOVED our tour with Antonella! ✨ This was so much more than just a food tour—it was an immersive experience into the local culture and customs of Florence. Antonella’s knowledge was incredible, and you could clearly see the genuine relationships she has built with each of the vendors we visited. Every single bite was intentional, thoughtfully selected, and paired with a meaningful story or cultural insight. The walk was perfectly paced—not too long—and the food was outstanding. Each stop felt special and authentic. She was also incredibly flexible and attentive with our 16-month-old, making sure she had food she could enjoy and that she stayed happy throughout the experience. That level of care meant so much to us. If you’re looking for a tour that is delicious, culturally rich, personal, and unforgettable—this is it. Highly, highly recommend! 🌟"
"Eden had tailored my private tour to include some shopping along with some fabulous local food. We visited some interesting local shops, had coffee at a high end cafe and had beautiful local food at a traditional rustic trattoria. On the way back we stopped by a bookshop in an old cinema, complete with seats to watch a Charlie Chaplin movie, fabulous. If I have time I will go back for a bit of quiet time…"
"Maria is wonderful with communication before the tour, and during the tour. We did the ten tastings (not ten different stops), and the 3 hours flew by! Her knowledge and her kindness both make the yummy food experience one to remember! Thank you, Maria! "
"Maria was an excellent guide. She was so knowledgeable on the area. She introduced me to so many unique and memorable sites, shops, and foods. I look forward to coming back and touring with her again"
"Giorgio was amazing! He made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. Took us to some amazing places that he picked out. Food was amazing and went away with very full! Also gave us a lot of food history. Learned so much from him. He took so much time answering questions and so much more. Loved that the tour was just the 5 of us! Would totally recommend withlocals! Nothing like a private tour."
