Fantastic Tour – A Journey Through Florence's History!

5.00We had an incredible experience on the Assassin’s Creed-themed Florence tour. Alessia, was exceptionally knowledgeable and brought the city's rich history to life, linking key moments to the game's storyline in a way that was both engaging and informative. Not only did we visit the main sights of Florence—like the Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, and Ponte Vechhio smongst others —but we also got detailed background on the historical context behind them. The history of Florence really shone through, making the tour immersive and memorable. Highly recommended for fans of the game and history buffs alike!
Best tour of Florence EVER!!

5.00Florence is an amazing city, full of art, culture and architecture. To have a guide for the day is highly recommended. Our guide Alessia, was multilingual which made all the difference for our small group (French, Argentine & American). The overall tour was in English (which everyone had a basic knowledge), but she was able to answer questions in French and Spanish as well. A+ for engaging with everyone and accommodating our requests! She has a vast knowledge of the history of the city as well as highlights of the Uffizi & Academia Museums and wonderful stories to share. Our only hiccup was not having a clear understanding that this was a fully walking tour and I was concerned that it might be tiring for one in our group. The heart of Florence is clearly meant to be enjoyed by walking and it made sense as we went from location to location. Alissia was thoughtful about taking breaks and finding places along the way to sit as needed. Gratzi for a most enjoyable afternoon!
Alessia is a wonderful tour guide!!

2-hour visit in the footsteps of Ezio Auditore

5.00Alessia is a superb guide! We chose the visit to Florence on the theme of Assassin's Creed 2, a video game which takes place in the Medici period, and whose monuments of the city have been recreated with great fidelity. Alessia taught us a lot about the places and Florentine history during the Renaissance period. No problem if you no longer have any memories of the game, Alessia will give you the comparison directly using photos from the game in front of the monuments. The Leap of Faith in the straw bales is not included in the service :) If we were to return to Florence, we would definitely call on her again to find out more about the city.
Pleasant Florentine cultural stay

Highlights and hidden gems in Florence

5.00Our tour guide Elena was very accommodating, informative and sweet. She showed us both must sees and hidden gems during our 6 hour walking tour. We walked into a beautiful small church where Americo Vespucci was buried. We saw the highlights at the Uffizi, walked over the Ponte Vecchio, visited the leather market and the Fontana del Porecellini, and walked through many quaint side streets. We had a a delicious panini at a local favorite shop not frequented by tourists, heard all about the success story of Salvatore Ferragamo, the origin of Pinocchio, and more. Our tour ended at the Accademia Gallery where we saw Michelangelo’s David and Elena pointed out fascinating details of this masterpiece. Fantastic experience and would highly recommend!
Very good visit with our guide Alessia Carmignani
