My experience with Babylon Tours in Florence was nothing short of enchanting! Our guide, Annette Morkholt, was thoroughly engaging, blending charisma with fascinating stories that brought the city's rich history to life. Her passion for art and the hidden gems of Florence made every moment feel special. This tour is a must for anyone wanting to truly connect with Florence!

Ilaria was our tour guide and she was amazing! She has so much knowledge, we learned so much about the history of the Duomo and art history. She also made the experience very fun and she was quite funny! We loved how she not only gave us the historical and biblical meaning of the displays, which she described in such detail, but also explained the societal and political events occurring at the time. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend!

We quized Giacomo on all aspects of Florentine art, culture and history and we never stumped him. Very enthusiastic about his home city and it’s history. We were fortunate to have him as our guide.
