A 90-minute guided walk through Florence’s Duomo, Signoria Square, and Ponte Vecchio, with a certified guide and radio system.
“Pam was full of knowledge an excellent guide. The little details on the street wall that you would normally walk by make these tours worth while!”
A 2-hour Florence walk linking the Medici, Renaissance symbols, and Duomo views, ending at the Uffizi with local food tips.
“Our guide (i think Fabien, possibly wrong) was absolutely brilliant. No, we didn't do lots of walking looking here there and everywhere, but what he did, is slowed it down, showed us the "main" and interesting sites for us all to comprehend what went on within Florence. He was very passionate about explaining about Florence and it's importance to Italy. Overall, an excellent tour, which I left, with a lot more knowledge than I started with. Thoroughly recommend this tour.”

See Michelangelo’s David at Accademia, tour Duomo landmarks, then guided Uffizi with lunch. Small groups, timed-entry tickets.
“It's not organized very well. We missed our meet up point and the representative at the site gave us tickets but did not give us information where to go after we're done with the tour of Accademia. It's like a chopped up tour where you have a guide for Accademia gallery, another guide for the walking tour, then you are on your own to find the restaurant for lunch, then another guide for the Uffizi. It's probably better not to get lunch with this tour.”
A 90-minute guided walk in Florence tracing Medici power, rival banking families, and a close look at the Medici Chapel mosaic.

“This was a great tour. Our guide, Lucia (SP?), was very sweet and informative. She was relaxed and did not rush our group along, but kept us moving. This was also more than most walking food tours -- we had more than just "bites" along the way, but really had a full meal, along with great wine. Would highly recommend!”
