If you wish to customize any given tour, feel free to contact me at your convenience. I look forward to hearing from you.

Secrets of Renaissance Florence Tour

Florence
3 hours

Whether it’s your first visit to Florence or you’re coming back to see old friends (Michelangelo, Leonardo, etc..) this is a great opportunity to see the main historical and architectural sites of Medieval and Renaissance Florence. Together we can make our way through the side streets of the city center where we come across true masterpieces of art and architecture literally hiding in plain view of the visitor. Florence is an open-air museum just waiting to be revealed.

Private Live Virtual Tour of Florence

Florence
1 hour

Florence is the birthplace of the Renaissance, but what does this mean in terms of what we see in the streets? Join me on a Live Virtual Tour as, over the course of one hour and from the comfort of your own home, we learn about the guilds which ran the city in the Middle Ages, and about the Medici dynasty, which ruled for three centuries and whose legacy is without comparison in the world of art collections and patronage, leaving us exceptional examples of Renaissance architecture and art.

Pisa Live Virtual Tour

Who hasn't wished to see the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa? As we walk through the beautiful city centre, just like the locals do on a daily basis, we learn a little about the city’s millennial history, its past glory and later transformation into a modern university town, before we reach the famous Campo dei Miracoli (Field of Miracles) with its famed Cathedral, the Baptistery, the Monumental Cemetery and, of course, the most famous belltower in the world.

“ Extremely knowledgable and flexible specialist in Florence and Tuscany ”

I would recommend Manolis to any American desiring to get the most out of a trip to Florence and Tuscany. He is a native English speaker, so no accent, but has lived and studied in Florence for many years. We wanted to get out of Florence for a few days, and Manolis not only designed a tour, but found us a driver who was almost as wonderful as he. He was a wonderful leader to our family group, which included young adults visiting for the first time. Prior to our visit, he worked extra hard to recommend hotels and thought about how the tours would go. Our 3 days included a half-day tour of the Uffizi which he personally guided and made the museum reservations for us. We spent an additional two days visiting cities outside Florence, including Siena, Pisa and San Gimignano. He recommended a few additions which turned out to be the highlight of our tour. I would work with him again in a minute.

Thank you for your kind appreciation. It was a pleasure for me to be your guide. I’m lucky you sought me and I’m privileged to be showing such lovely places. Stay safe.
