An ideal guided tour gives you valuable information about what you are looking at, in such a way that you don't feel stupid, but it also stimulates your desire to learn more about what you have seen. That's what education is all about. Emma fulfilled both, in a very pleasant manner, that is, shall I say, typically Florentine? Dominique Garrel More

We did a 3 hour (turned out to be, happily, closer to 4) walking tour of Florence with Marzia and everyone -- four adults and 3 teen boys -- loved it. She is broadly and deeply familiar with the architecture, art, history, and lore of the city. We spent a long time in the Accademia with Michael Angelo, in particulr,... More

The afternoon we spent with Paola Barubiani of Walks Inside Florence was wonderful. Even though my wife and I have been to Florence a number times before, we learned so much from Paola that it almost felt like our first visit. All of the little interesting facts and hidden places she showed us, like the wine doors on buildings and... More

My sister and I did 2 tours in 2 days with Paola when we visited Florence. We choose Walks Inside Florence based on the TA reviews and Rick Steves' recommendation. We were not disappointed! The price is very reasonable for a private tour. It was great not to battle a large group of people. Booking via email was simple. Paola... More

We had a guided tour to the Uffizi with Emma Molignoni. She was a wonderful guide. I can only say that everything in that tour was perfect, from the managing of the entrance procedure, the selection of the pictures, the details we have been told about the artists and their masterworks, the possibility to ask questions and getting a really...

We took 2, half day tours, first an orientation of the city with a visit to the Accademia, and the next day to tour the Uffizi gallery. Our guide Caterina was outstanding! She was personable, very knowlegeable in art history and the city itself, and she spoke excellent English. The tour was well paced, informative and personalized. She made everything... More

We booked a private tour with Dr. Paola Barubiani to see the Uffizi and Accademia. I read the reviews on Trip Advisor and I am so glad we did. Paola was so knowledgeable. She was able to give us a tour without being overwhelmed. We learned so much during our time together. We did not have to wait in line... More

We would highly recommend this tour company for your visit to Florence. Marzia guided us through the history of her beautiful city and was very passionate about the history, and her stories were endless. We had a wonderful time and would like to thank her very much for all that she shared with us. More

We had a 3 hour tour that included the Academia where we saw Michaelangelo's David. We saw many highlights that included San Croce church, the Duomo, the city center, old parts of Florence, Signoria Plaza, etc. Great for first time visitors. The guides will work with you to ensure that you see what interests you most. Tour was very easy... More
