Excellent! We wanted to visit the city at our own pace and this solution was perfect. Nice info on every spot with some funny stories too. You'll need to use your phone for this but, even if you are not an expert, the platform is really simple to use. Really recommended and good value for money!

Beautiful day in Florence with this digital guide. We didn't see everything included in the guidebook because it was really too much but we split the visit in two days doing everything at a more leisurely pace. Super recommended

One of the best tours we have had. Our guide was knowledgeable, and provided us with so much information in such a delightfully digestible manner! We could have listened to her all day long!

Excellent experience. Convenient to visit a city full of attractions like Florence at your own pace. Fantastic quality/price.

Other than the great experience, I consider this trip pricy.
