Ilaria was spectacular! She showed us secrets and corners that we would have never seen. It is a two hour walking tour you don’t go into any museums . Great for a 9 year old . Ilaria is worth the money… but not entering anything is troublesome. She was able to get us tickets to see the David .
We did 2 private tours with Roberta (walking tour+ accademia and uffizi) and Roberta made it fun and interesting for the 5 children. She knows a lot, born in Firenze and knows how to transmit her knowledge with dynamism. I highly recommend her ! Thanks a lot.
Great way to see Florence. Roberta was so knowledgeable and friendly. Our 9 and 12 year olds adored her. She had a great way of engaging them while teaching them about the city.
A great way to get an overview of the city. The guide engaged the kids and shared lots of interesting facts and history about the city.
Had a great time seeing the city with kids engaged and not complaining! Our guide was very good with our kids and made sense of the structures and art around us.
Our guide Martina was wonderful! We loved being a private tour group and being flexible and able to ask questions. Our boys, 11 and 9, even loved it!
Our guide, Martina, was able to involve our 7 and 10 year old girls (the seven year old is usually uninterested in anything 😅) really nice and prepared, she led us on a tour game through the streets of the center, without ever losing the interest of the girls and making the experience pleasant for us adults. STRA RECOMMENDED by the whole family! Thank you very much 💖
My family LOVED this tour! I have three kids (ages 9-15) and they were really engaged throughout this morning. Martina was excellent and made the experience so fun for them, particularly interacting with my 9-year-old. We all learned just enough about Florence but weren't overloaded with information. Was perfect for my family! I would highly recommend Martina!!
Illaria was truly amazing. She kept our children engaged and interested during the entire experience. She had both great energy and patience. Highly recommend for anyone traveling with kids.
Ilaria Perini kept our two boys (11 and 9) engaged and interested for 2.5 hours inside the Ufizzi! She was funny, honest, informative, and knew exactly the kinds of things that would be of interest to both the kids and me and my husband. I can’t say enough good things about her!
