I have used with locals in other cities in Europe and they always provide great guides. Dina was no exception. I love the fact that you have contact to your guide prior to your trip. Dina responded to questions about restaurants choices even before we met. The Uffizi and the Accedemia are really busy. There are many group tours and tons of bodies. Dina's knowledge of what to look at and how to avoid crowds was very helpful. Having a personal touch to the tour is paramount. You need a knowledgeable, enthusiastic professional, or you will be lost and overwhelmed. Dina was all that and more. Thank you for a great day.
Dina was so kind and wonderful! She knew I had been to Florence before and detailed the tour to my needs. Plus she also gave me some local tips!! She made me feel like a friend walking through her favorite city. Don’t wait to book with her JUST DO IT!!!
Dina is a wonderful guide. Her knowledge of the Medici family and the history of Florence is exceptional. I went on two tours with her and both were great. Dina contacted me well before my arrival to ask any information or help that I might need and continuously was in contact during my stay. She even communicated with other guides of tours that I took to ensure the experience I received was not overlapped. She helped me with recommendations to local restaurants and boutique artisan shops. She is generous and exceptionally well organised. I have a genuine respect for Dina and I am grateful and satisfied with her as a guide: Highly recommended
We have just returned from our trip to Florence and wanted to say thank you to Dina for our tour of the artisans of Florence. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and it was interesting to see both some old techniques and also an innovative new approach keeping the artisan tradition alive. In addition, what we saw on our tour gave us a deeper appreciation of what we saw subsequently in the Medici Chapel the following day. Our tour also involved cappuccino, panettone and ice cream which is always a good formula! We would have no hesitation in recommending Dina if you want to find out more about the renaissance city.
It was a pleasure to have the city tour with Dina! She was insignthful, explained the history well, with a sense if humor that kept our teens engaged and curious. The tour was very helpful for us to understand the history, the monuments and the hidden tresors of Florence. Dina also shared her local recommendations for restaurants and shops. We recommend completely and heartfully!
Our experience started with great communication from the time of our booking. Dina was very attentive in responding to ensure we received her responses quickly so we could make our decisions and purchases as some attractions and times sell out. She provided full details of what to expect during the process on the bookings. Fortunately we booked well enough in advance that we were able to secure the tickets and times we wanted. As the trip approached, her communication continued. She coordinated our meet up location based upon where our tour started and the day before our tour communicated wonderfully on where and how to locate her. This turned out not to even be a search as she spotted us and approached unhesitatingly. She is an absolutely wonderful host in her city and started us off at one of her favorite historical coffee bars. Her knowledge and passion for her city and country is evident in her presentations during her tours. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience spending the day with her. I highly recommend a private tour with Dina to gain that one-on-one experience and be ably to ask questions and communicate. She truly loves what she does and it is felt.

Dina was prompt in her communication and was accommodating with our schedule. She had great tour and food recommendations. I would highly recommend Dina for your tour, a real gem for the city of Florence.
Dina's tour of David at the Accademia and the Duomo was the best tour of our trip to Italy. Dina is extremely knowledgeable of all things Florence. This one on one tour was customized to exactly what we wanted and Dina made this a very informative and memorable experience.
Thank you Dina for an absolutely superb tour of Florence. You were so informative and thoughtful, making new plans as we went along the tour to encompass the boys interests. We wouldn't hesitate to book again with you.
Dina is a wonderful guide. Great communication and very knowledgeable. We had to change the time of the tour and she was accommodating. We had a fantastic afternoon. One of the highlights of our trip to Italy. Thanks Dina!
We had a great tour that covered the history of Florence during the renaissance period with Dina. She was knowledgeable and interesting. The pace was perfect. We would highly recommend this tour.
Dina was recommended by our friends, and she was everything that we hoped for. Wonderful lady, and a very nice to have as a guide when in Florence. Wish her luck!
Dina was invaluable in making our trip to Florence fantastic! Her knowledge and passion for the city's history, art, and food was inspiring and generous! Thank you, Dina!
We had a tour of Florence with Dina and from the moment we met, I knew we’d made the right choice. Dina is a rare combination of passionate, deeply knowledgable, charming and funny. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who is thinking of doing anything with a local in Florence. Her care, kindness and love for her city are unmatched in my opinion x
Dina was the best! We booked a Highlights and hidden gems tour in Florence for my husband and 2 kids 15/13. Dina was truly awesome. Communication was fantastic pre tour and during - she provided us with so many fun facts and interesting stories. (Ones you can’t google!) We saw sights, learned the history and her restaurant knowledge is A+. Dina was so easy to be with, very personable and fun. She is also so kind and super helpful. My daughter, 13 missed the tour because she was sick. Dina had checked in with me to see how she was doing and if we needed anything. Wow! How incredibly thoughtful. Dina goes above and beyond. Don’t hesitate i highly recommend booking with Dina!!

I am a travel advisor and I traveled to Florence with my husband and 3 daughters (ages 10, 12, 15) and Dina helped make our experience seeing the David and touring the Uffizi very easy and stress free. Dina was incredibly knowledgeable and engaging and kept my kids’ attention. She gave relevant information and was enthusiastic during the time we spent with her. She showed us some highlights of Florence and let us experience some of her personal favorite places. I have since recommended her services to some clients who have also been very satisfied with their tours. I highly recommend Dina to help make your Florence experience a memorable one!
My cousin and I looked for months to find a tour guide that would give us a specialized tour of everything involving the Medici family. We were lucky enough to find Dina. She took us to all attractions involving the Medici family and even some hidden gems of Florence. She took us to great places for our meals/coffee and gave suggestions for when we were on our own. We discovered some amazing shops for jewelry and also other very interesting attractions of Florence. We had a wonderful 3 days with Dina. Thank you Dina!
My wife. Lyn, and I spent three weeks in Florence recently and a friend who lives there 4 months of the year recommended Dina G as a guide. Although we had visited Florence before, we only had time to tour outside several sights and museums. Dina took us over three days on wonderful visits inside the Duomo, Pitti Palace, Bargello Museum, Uffizi Gallery and to David. She was always on time, got our tickets in advance, and gave great explanations on all of our visits about the sights we saw. She also suggested several restaurants, all of which were superb. I highly recommend Dina.
I had an amazing afternoon at the Uffizi with Dina! She was wonderful! Her vast knowledge of the Uffizi and its masterpieces made for such a fun and interesting tour. Not only that but she was so sweet, kind, and funny. I loved meeting her and would absolutely contact her again the next time I am in Florence if I need a tour!!
My wife and I booked a walking tour of Florence with Dina G. She was wonderful! We asked for some history and foodie stops in downtown Florence. Her knowledge of Florence was impressive and her engaging way of conveying historical points of interest left us wanting to see more of Florence. Her choices for local food, drink and gelato were right on point! Can’t wait to return and see more. Grazie Mille Dina!
We did a morning walking tour with Dina & can thoroughly recommend it!
We learnt a lot. Dina was great company & showed us around beautiful Florence. She also gave us great recommendations for food & gelato. Thank you Dina!
My family and I booked a tour with Dina and it was a HIGHLIGHT of our trip to Florence! We first went to the Accademia to see the statue of David. Dina is exceptionally knowledgeable and we learned so much about da Vinci and his most famous statue. We then began the food tour! It was fabulous! We loved touring the market and going to other places as well. Do not hesitate to book a tour with Dina. She is simply wonderful!
Dina is a fabulous tour guide. We had so much fun learning about the David in Florence and going on a fun food tour with some of the best highlights in Florence. Book with Dina and you will not be disappointed
