Amazing Experience

Published on Aug, 2024

I had the pleasure of touring Florence with my family of 10 this summer. Our tour guide, Annette, made this experience wonderful. She was a fountain of knowledge and an absolute delight. We collected so many amazing photos and learned so much. I would love to tour with Annette again, if I were to be so lucky.
