"Walking Tours of Florence are wise and well informed.
They have a fresh accessible style which makes it fun. The recipe seems to be the more you enjoy the more you learn. And it works."
Michael Palin
Actor/Presenter (Monty Python and a list of fabulous films too long to list here) -
"The Greatest Tour Guide Ever!"
Lou Reed
Rockstar -
"...This tour is wonderful, it is informative, complete and fun. And more importantly, you don't feel like a sheep in a flock, herded around town..."
Richard Kind
Actor (Mad about You, Spin City) -
"Thank You for the Wonderful Experience!"
Alex Rodriguez
Baseball Star (In December of 2000 Rodriguez became the best-paid ballplayer of all time when he signed a $252 million contract with the Texas Rangers) -

you know Michelangelo and the other Masters personally.
