Wonderful tour! Not too long, not too short. Our guide, Elena, was wonderful! Fit a lot of information into 3 hours. Would definitely recommend.

Angelo made our experience of Florence outstanding! With only half a day in our rather tight trip it was definitely worth doing. Our guide was knowledgeable, organized and articulate! Highly recommended

Good tour. It was a bit odd that it ended quite a ways from where it started. Other tours we've been on ended closer to where we started making it easier to get back to our lodging.

Walks make it so easy to book and pay and the tours are outstanding with knowledgeable guides who have a sense of humour and good life experience. The small groups up to 20 make it easy to relate to other travellers if interested.
