Due to some confusion with other tourists during the start of the tour, 30 mins of our tour was wasted. The guide Yaniel, who was very nice, had to deal with those tourists. The tour started 30 mins late and we missed visiting the Oltrarno area even though he told us that was in the itenary.
We had a fantastic tour with a knowledgeable and very friendly tour guide. The tour was personal, well thought out and extremely informative. We saw so many things that we would have not experienced had we not joined this tour. I would highly recommend it.
Our tour guide Iwona was so friendly and knowledgeable. This is an excellent way to see the city and learn about the history of Florence. Would highly recommend!
The tour was amazing! The tour guide, Iwona, was super nice and personable. She spent extra time explaining things we were interested in, was sweet, and overall gave me a good understanding of the town while keeping everyone entertained.
Although the guide was polite and accommodating she offered little personally. The audio devices are just not very effective.
Wonderful experience! Barbara is a very knowledgeable and friendly guide who showed us the treasures and hidden secrets of the city.
This was a fantastic way to see the key sites in Florence and discover the history and significance of things. We really liked the audio guide that was timed with specific points of the tour. Our guide was Yaniel and he was fantastic. He really knew the city and offered extra information before or after the audio guide. He even showed us a few fun spots along the way.
My tour guide was Barbara, and she was so helpful! She really catered the tour towards our interests and made sure we got the pictures we wanted. She answered all the questions we had about Florence and its history. Not only did we see the popular sites like the Duomo, but she also showed us some hidden gems throughout the city. Highly recommend it if you want a more personalized tour.
Ami gave us an unforgettable tour and truly brought Florence to life for us. From Republic Square to Piazza del Duomo, every stop was filled with fascinating history, local insight, and engaging storytelling. Ami has a wonderful way of explaining Florence’s rich past while keeping everything fun, clear, and memorable. We especially loved our time at Piazza della Signoria, where Ami pointed out details we never would have noticed on our own, and the walk across Ponte Vecchio was unforgettable thanks to the stories and context she shared. She is a great storyteller and teacher of history. Ami was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly passionate about Florence. She answered all our questions, paced the tour perfectly, and gave us a very personal experience. If you want to truly understand and appreciate Florence beyond just seeing the sights, Ami is the guide you’re looking for. You will fall in love with Florence even more. Highly recommend — this tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy!
It is a whistle stop tour around the City, and then you can decide which museums etc you wish to visit independently. It was good to get a feel for locations too. Bi-lingual with radio's and worked well. Just keep an eye out at the meeting point, its a small square and we were in the wrong corner, but don't panic you are in the right place, just need to keep an eye out.
Ami was very knowledgeable, patient and pleasant. It was a delight sharing time with her! She went above and beyond explaining extra details and answered every question we had.
Our tour guide seemed like a nice person, but he was not very effective in telling us about Florence. He wasn’t very constable speaking in English. He missed a lot of opportunity to tell stories about the details of the places we were walking through. There were sections with recorded audio that we listened to. We got the details but would’ve been better to hear them from a live guide.
Our tour guide Barbara was excellent. She was very knowledgeable and able to provide answers to all our questions about the history of each of the places we passed. And she was also friendly and relaxed. Using her ipad, she was able to show us photographs of interesting details and art. I would recommend this tour which is 2.5 hours at a pleasant pace.
Our guide Barbara was very knowledgeable and the city tour went very smoothly despite the rain all morning. A good way to see many venues in a short period of time.
It's a very good way to get to know the city! The city is amazing and the guide was fantastic. We got around the city and visited the main monuments instead of just getting inside only one museum. I totally recommend it!
I recently took the Accord Walking Tour, and it was an unforgettable experience. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the history and culture of the area, making the entire experience both informative and enjoyable. The route was also well-planned, taking us through both popular landmarks and hidden gems. I highly recommend this walking tour because it offers a perfect balance of rich history, engaging storytelling, and local insights. It’s a fantastic way to explore the city and uncover hidden gems that you wouldn’t find on your own!
Our tour guide, Leonardo, was fantastic! Very enthusiastic and engaging in showing us the beautiful history of Florence. We saw all of the major sights and even some hidden gems around the city.
I recently had the pleasure of joining the Walking Tour with Accord and it definitely had an impact on me! The guide Barbara was knowledgeable, and brought the stories and history of the area to life. The pace was perfect—neither too fast nor too slow—and along the way, our guide provided fascinating insights, fun anecdotes, and even some local tips for dining and visiting some of the most famous museums in the city.
Really good tour with a fantastic guide, Gian. I recommend it to everyone. Especially in the low season the group is small so you may have a private experience.
The walking tour with audioguide in Florence was so great with Barbara. It was a good way to know the city better. I will look for other tour with Accord. Thank you!
I recently took a guided tour of Florence, and it was fantastic. Our guide, Leonardo, was knowledgeable and engaging, offering great insights into the city’s history and art. We visited key landmarks like the Duomo, Uffizi Gallery, Ponte Vecchio, Pitti Palace and Vasari Corridor, with just the right amount of time at each. The small group size made the experience more personal, and I left with a deeper appreciation of Florence’s beauty. Highly recommend!
Our guide was lovely, and led us on a route that covered the main sights and was really useful for giving us an overview of the city and where we wanted to explore further. She showed us photos of the interiors of buildings on an iPad, which was helpful. However, the actual description of the places visited was given through individual audio devices and earphones. This worked well from the point of view of being accessible to speakers of different languages, but the content was very ‘text book’ and dry, and lacking the personal touch of a live guide. We also realised the voices were AI-generated. Not a patch on listening to a real person speaking live, and able to interact.
Really informative with a friendly and knowledgeable guide. Would recommend doing this on your first day in Florence to get you bearings and decide what you want to go back to.
The experience was amazing. I was so grateful to live these moments. To walk and watch at the City while listening the audio guide in my own language was amazing! Very recommended your!!
Great way to discover Florence and to be able to ask the guide questions. Our guide Lorenzo was very knowledgeable and friendly.
Very great and informative tour with a surprise, which became very interesting. Guide Iwona was very great 😊
We were able to explore the city center of Florence with Lorenzo. Lorenzo explained the history of Florence in English that was understandable for everyone, making it vivid and tangible, and let us immerse ourselves in the world of the Medici, the Middle Ages, and the history of this beautiful city. Here and there, there were interesting, amazing, and funny stories. The texts on the audio guide in the chosen language did the rest. A great guide and an absolutely recommendable tour!
Tour well commented and documented by our guide Lorenzo. We recommend this tour.
An exceptional tour. It is a must-do, we learned a lot. The guide Yaniel, very professional, with a lot of knowledge. He made us discover and love Florence.
Very nice guided tour. There were only 3 tourists, which made the visit very personalized. Thank you very much.
Interesting and exhaustive experience with a really good and helpful guide named Imona.
Interesting and well explained bravo
The tour guide was from 'Accord': just banal... The title was 'The Best of Florence...' . Minimal oral explanations and if, then 'magazine level', luckily there was the audio guide...
Spectacular walk in the center of Florence with the superlative Yvonne: nice and prepared told us many details of the city. It's worth it. He also recommended places to see later that were much appreciated.
Very nice visit. To do absolutely to know the history and some hidden curiosities. Thank you to Yaniel for his professionalism and kindness.
We love. Ivona is very friendly, attentive and helpful. Super indicate this walk with her. We will definitely do it more often.
We made this visit at the very beginning of the stay and it was a very good idea. Friend made us have a great time despite the rain. We learned a lot about the Medici dynasty. The tour was in English but we had an audio guide in French to clarify certain points and Ami showed us images on his tablet when necessary. Very interesting.
Today I did a walking tour of about two and a half hours and it was just wonderful. We were greeted by Ami and Chiara, two absolutely phenomenal guides. Gentle, elegant, highly prepared and incredibly intelligent. But above all: they were able to transform a simple walk into a very special experience. With competence, sympathy and great sensitivity, they told us stories, details and curiosities with a rare naturalness. Every explanation was clear, interesting and full of passion. You can feel how much they love what they do and that makes all the difference. Thanks to Ami and Chiara, the tour was engaging, fluid and memorable from start to finish. Two professionals of the highest level who completely elevate the experience. I recommend this tour without any hesitation. If you happen to be with Ami and Chiara, you are in very good hands.
Tour of the old town with Julia, a very knowledgeable tourist guide and gives you the answers to your curiosity. Friendly and always smiling.
Very nice tour. Our guide Julia was very friendly and answered all questions about history, art and insider tips. Is really recommended.
Amy is a very friendly guide who knows Florence well and knows how to answer our questions. You can see that she takes pleasure in making us discover this city. In addition, she listens to our needs and knows how to be patient when we stop to take photos. We highly recommend this tour and guide. Thank you.
Great experience with Yaniel, good, professional and nice. We've seen so many goodies that we would have missed on our own. Highly recommended! Thank you so much Yaniel
I highly recommend it. This way you get to know a city / the main sights very well. In addition, the guide was extremely competent, friendly and nice.

Very positive experience and Yaniel our super prepared guide! He also told us curious anecdotes to complete the whole
Leonardo fantastic and competent. We enjoyed it despite stroller and small we were able to travel the most intimate places with simplicity
Yaniel introduced us to the city with an obvious passion for his profession. Very calm and patient, he took the time to explain the history and secrets of Florence, making the visit captivating. In addition, he shared with us great tips for dinner, with authentic and tasty addresses. A really great guide, who made our day memorable!
The tour was magnificent, 2 and a half hours of immersion in the history of one of the most beautiful and fascinating cities in Italy, Florence. Our guide, Yaniel, guided us all the time and satisfied us fully with his clear explanations, as well as being friendly and open to any questions. Highly recommended if you want to know this city properly!
