Fantastic guide, bringing the history to of Florence to life

Published on Jun, 2024

We joined as family of 4, 2 adults, 2 teens. We enjoyed the walk around the Florence’s Medici historical buildings. The tour was not just the Medici but our fantastic guide Renata was so knowledgeable about the history of Florence that we seemed to get a history tour of Florence dating back to Roman times and beyond. Renata had great energy and passion for her job, was attentive to to the group, finding shaded areas to talk to us. Renata really made the history of Florence and the Medici come to life for us. Renata also went the extra mile for us, taking us to Pitti palace to ensure we could access. I highly recommend Renata and Caf Walking tour. Thanks Renata

On the tracks of Florence’s Giants

Published on Nov, 2023

our guide Renata provided our group with excellent informations about the Medicis, but also much more: from historical anecdotes to architectural details to the larger context of the epoch and art history, she was also patient and eager to answer our questions, all in all like a promenade with a very well informed friend! a great experience

A fun way to get to know Florence!

Published on Mar, 2023

This was such a fun way to get to know the city! Our tour guide was knowledgable and entertaining and had so many stories and facts about the history of Florence. Would definitely recommend if you are new to the city.

Lisa is the best

Published on Feb, 2023

Awesome tour. Lisa was the best tour guide we had our entire trip. She knew her history inside and out and answered every question we threw at her. In fact she was kind enough to keep answering our questions even after time was up. Highly reccomend Lisa and this tour.

So much more than just seeing the sights!

Published on Nov, 2022

Our tour was so amazing!! The tour guide was so knowledgeable and we learned so much! The history that the guide shared with us was every bit as intriguing as the sites along the tour themselves.
