Historical journey about Florence
Hans_K
, Dec 2021
Camilla did a fantastic job explaining the history of Florence and the Medici family. The tour was about 2 hours long, but the story being brought in by her made a significant impact to me that my wife and I continue to do the research on our own. I can't recommend her enough, so book this tour whenever you are in Florence.

Our tour was a great experience thanks to Manuel, our great guide (or as they call it "story teller"). I think this tour is a very good way to begin in Florence as it provides a nice understanding of the city and its fascinating history. Manuel was very knowledgable and a great story teller and the tour was well planned and organized.

A wonderful trip into Florence’s past! Manuel is a fabulous storyteller, very knowledgeable and passionate about his city! We learned so much - and especially loved the “peek into everyday life” during the Renaissance that he shared. We will now see Florence with different eyes due to the insights Manuel shared.
