A wonderful introduction to Florence! - Saw so much of the city of Florence and learned so much about it! We had an olive oil tasting and a glass of wine. Got lots of recommendations for restaurants to try, neighborhoods and markets to explore, with little lessons on Italian phrases sprinkled throughout. It was an excellent introduction to the city on my first day here, definitely recommend!

Great tour - What a fun tour. We had Gia ad our guide and she was so friendly and knowledgeable. It was just the two of us on tour this particular time so we got to ask all our questions! Wine and food was great. Highly recommend!

Leisurely, historical, authentic - Greta was a very knowledgeable tour guide. You take a leisurely stroll through some of the less well known streets of Florence whilst hearing the history of the medici family, the wine windows and getting to sample authentic extra virgin olive oil from an expert maker as well as the wine window experience.

Highly recommended this walk in Florence. - A very informative and fun 1 1/2 hour city walk with guide Thomas who grew up in Florence. We were taken to some more unknown places in Florence. And have tasted good olive oil and finished with a wine at one of the wine Windows in Florence. Highly recommended!

Not happy - We could not find the meeting point they changed meeting point and it was hard to find so we missed our tour. We asked for our money back and they declined. Not very happy with outcome.

Location meet up is not clear - The meeting location is not clear, we took pictures and videos to dispute with cc company bc we could not find it. Tried to contact them and they said we were late, so the tour left. We were not late and have video to prove it. Very disappointed as we were looking forward to this. We saw the tour group at one of the windows and said we are supposed to be on this tour, the guide was rude and would not let us join in .. even tough people in the tour said it was the correct one.
