Additional Information

Join us on this journey as we unveil the concealed aspects of Florence, enthralling you with tales of specters, assassinations, deceptions, and peculiarities that diverge from the common narratives of the city. Have you caught wind of the Monster of Florence, among the most savage serial murderers in history? Does your curiosity stretch to Florentine superstitions, plots, inexplicabilities, saints, miracles, or forms of punishment? If so, this exploration is designed for you. We issue a caution that some subjects may distress certain sensitivities and may not be apt for individuals under 18. Accompany us and unearth the facets of Florence that remain absent from tourist manuals, so disturbing, grim, and agitating that it may keep you awake at night. ha ha ha

Best value/Fabulous informative guide - Fabulous. Interesting, intelligent and engaging professional tour guide who clearly knew her stuff (Angela was the guide we had). You are not expected to pay (and some tight people on our tour didn't-shame on them!) so I recommend you go; you won't regret it or begrudge paying. In comparison we paid 25eur for a really rubbish Arno boat tour.

To get to know Florence in a different way - Very entertaining, Gabriel gave it to us and he is enthusiastic about what he does, we understood him perfectly in Spanish and it was short for us. Super recommended

Highly recommended - The tour was great!!! We've been on several tours that were significantly more expensive and not nearly as good as this one. Our guide was also great, she spoke great English and was totally into it.

It was short for us - The tour was very good. It was too short for us. Giacomo told us the stories in an entertaining and very theatrical way that kept our interest alive.
