FABULOUS Florence tour guide - Letizia is an AMAZING tour guide. I am not a real art/history person and she made it sooo interesting. We had so much fun and learned a lot. She is very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had. If you have the option to have her as your tour guide you should do it. She will do a great job!

Enjoyed by the whole family - Our whole family really enjoyed this tour. We all learned a lot and Letizia kept both the 15 and 10 year old engaged and interested. Our 10 year old could still remember facts a couple days later, very impressed!
We were able to customize the tour to include a visit to see the highlights of the Accademia gallery, many sights of Florence and stopped for delicious gelato. We went back for more the next day...

Insightful - Letizia is knowledgeable, warm and friendly. She kept our 3 teenage children very engaged with questions centered around their knowledge in art and history. The Uffizi collection is enormous but she was able to guide us through by focussing on key elements. She also took us to the Accademia Gallery which was also very inspiring.

Tour on florence out of the beaten path - Letizia was a perfect tour guide for our family. She could speak very good French and English. she was very knowledgeable about history but also art. She took us to places we would never have visited by ourselves but also took us to the iconic monuments of the city and gave us very interesting explanations. She was very interesting for both adults and teenagers. Communication to organize the tour was very easy via messenger. I highly recommend her.

Great walk around Florence with kids - We went for a c.2.5 hours walk around the historic center of Florence with Letizia and our two kids aged 11 and 6.
Great experience, especially for the kids who had never been there before. Letizia was able to get them interested in the key historic landmarks and the way life used to be in Florence across the centuries, using interesting anecdotes and games. Fun visit for us adults too, with lots of discoveries despite having been in town a number of times already.
Would warmly recommend. Grazie Letizia!
