Best Guide on our trip to Italy!
Susan_C, Apr 2024
Francesco was our guide on 21 April 2024 for Viator's Art and History Tour of Florence. He was the best guide we had on our 2 week trip to Italy with 4 couples. On this tour there were 2 couples which made it so nice because we could easily hear all the interesting things that Francesco had to say, and he let us set the pace more. Francesco is energetic, speaks superb English and fun to be with. We learned so much with Francesco, and we didn't want the tour to end! He told us he is a history school teacher, and I can imagine how much fun he makes learning for his students! Ask for Francesco if you book this tour.
Francesco = Best Guide in Italy
Saba_G, Nov 2023
We scheduled this super last minute and it might have been the highlight of our entire week-long trip in Italy. Francesco was an EXCELLENT guide who took his time to really explain all of the amazing history that was literally everywhere within the city. His passion for the art and the history of Florence made it easy to be engaged and ask questions and we ended up incredibly glad that we did this tour. Francesco's students are lucky to have him as a teacher! Thank you!!
Best tour from our whole trip

This organization is top-notch and we really loved our tour with Monica. She’s really knowledgeable but more importantly, she knows how to deliver just the right amount of information, supplemented with engaging and memorable stories (and that she was 100 percent understandable made it al the more enjoyable!j

Thank you for your nice review!
Walking and talking with Arzu!
Gregory_L, Jul 2021
We loved our tour with Zeynep Arzu!!! She was very knowledgeable and friendly. She had answers for all our questions. We’ve discovered some new facts and secrets of the Medici family. Two hours of walking beautiful streets of Florence went too quickly yet eventful.

Lorenzo was excellent as he moved us around the city. His interest and passion for Florence was both charming and engaging. From his information, we were excited to plan more visits to locations he introduced us to. Florence is truly a lovely city.
Perfect time to discover the city!

EXCELENT visit! It was full of information, Giovanni was clearly in love with his city and its centuries of history! He told us a lot without giving too much names or dates. It really was a perfect visit I’ll recommend it to everyone !
A tour guide with a passion
Andrea_Pemberton, Jul 2021
This was an excellent walking tour. Thanks to Giovanni I now know how to appreciate statues, their locations, the story behind the statue, and how to try to read a statue. His explanation of statues really opened a part of me that I didn't know existed. He explained how rich and powerful families conquered cities and how they incorporated their family's transitions and goals. Whatever powerful families built they ensured their family crest was on the building. He explained how the churches were built and their purpose. I will never look at a statue again the way I did before this tours. I am really amazed at Giovanni and his inept know but I must also say he is a professor and he is passionate about art history. Anyone who is fortunate enough to have him as a tour guide will not be disappointed. Good job Giovanni
