You'll meet your friendly guide at the statue in Piazza della Santissima Annunziata. A representative will be there holding a sign with our company name on it.

Nebojosa (our guide) explained everything very artistically. It felt like we were walking back in time in the history of Florence. Nebojosa is a very good story teller.

This was a great walking tour that covered some of the main sites and history of the city. Our guide, Caterina, shared her extensive knowledge and passion for her home town and made our trip a memorable experience! The only slight downside was that the quality of the audio on the over the ear headset provided was not always very clear compared to some other Tour Guy tours I’ve taken, which provided in-ear buds. Especially when walking through the noisy streets of the city.
Great Experience!

Our guide Eriza Nuku gave an A+ tour of David and the city. Her background in Art History was evident as she brought the work of the sculptor alive. In addition I learned about the city of Florence during the walking tour. I highly recommend Tour Guy tours to everyone.
Very knowledgeable guide
