Andrea - Private Guide in Florence

Languages: English, Spanish, France, Italian

Hello! Let me introduce myself. My name is Andrea and I'm from Firenze.

I have a First Class degree with Honors in Art History from the University of Siena. 

After university I obtained post university degrees in art and history, and in addition to my work as a private tour guide, I also teach Art History. Over the years I have become fluent in English and have also become an Italian language teacher.

I am fully qualified and licensed since 1991 as a Tour Guide for Florence's City and Province in English, Italian and Spanish. I am also a fully qualified Driver Guide. My curiosity and insatiable desire to learn new things have led me to cultivate a particular interest in art and local history. I have long worked together with the major institutions, the City Council, museums, associations and regional park authorities, in order to find out more about the exceptional cultural and natural heritage of my city and province so that I can teach others about it with awareness and professional skill by offering my services as a private guide in Italy.

Since 1991 I have offered personalized private guide services and guided walking tours in Tuscany to hundreds of people, whether travelling as individuals, couples or groups. On my guided tours in Tuscany, I have truly enjoyed introducing people to our spectacular landscape, our magnificent "art cities", and to our wines, food and culture. I look forward to sharing my love for the art and history of Tuscany by exploring it with you. As wetour we will follow a number of charming, interesting and evocative classical routes through Tuscany, exploring the best known Tuscany cities and towns. I will obtain museum reservations for you so that you can avoid wating in lines. I have designed other routes so you can discovertypical Tuscan wine (Chianti) and Tuscan cuisine, and more guided tours are planned so that we will encounter ancient churches, hermitages and abbeys. 

I will work with you before you arrive to design your private guided tour, in order to make sure that your itinerary fulfills your greatest expectations. Through this process we will create programs that will leave you with enchanted memories of Tuscany. To assist in planning your private tour in Italy, please have a look at my suggestions and contact me so we can begin our collaboration. 

I'm used to dealing with different kind of guests, offering private tours for individuals, families or groups. I specialize inguided tours in Florence of museums, churches, city sightseeing and walking tours for discovering this pearl of Italy, the most important art city in my Country. I offer my private guide services with tailor made tours and excursions in the towns and in the beautiful country side of Tuscany. You may reserve private guided tours to Pisa, Chianti, Siena, St. Giminiano, and private shore excursions from Livorno seaport.
