“Alessandro is probably one of the most knowledgeable guides we’ve had (we travel a lot). He could answer any questions - no matter how obscure, not only of history, but art, Florence and travel in Tuscany. His pace was perfect for us, with detailed explanations of all that we were seeing. He integrated all information from Pitti Palace with all other sites around town. He allowed ample time for questions and made sure we could remain in the museum after our visit was done, while giving suggestions of what to explore afterwards. We highly recommend him and the tour!!!”
