How you will be a great contributor for Art,
We do our part in a small way, with a step in the right direction. This is why we have decided to keep our group sizes small. With just 10 people per group, our guides can provide personalized tours, leaving you with a better understanding. In a small group you will learn more and get the most out of your experience. Our small groups also respect the sites visited by keeping numbers down in overcrowded galleries and sites. And lastly, we want to actively contribute to the preservation of the art and sites in a real way. And we include you in our mission. A part of the proceeds from your payment of our services will be donated to organizations that are dedicated to the preservation and restoration of the works of art and sites visited on our tours.
This tour/activity will have a maximum of 10 travelers

We toured Santa Croce with Francesco. We arrived late (he waiting for us), and took us immediately for gelato because we were so stressed out. We then spent a wonderful and informative afternoon with him in Santa Croce. Because we were in FLorence for only 24 hours, this was the only facility tour we booked, and we were so grateful to have had a wonderful guide and an uncrowded tour experience. It seemed as if everyone was on holiday in Florence, there were lines everywhere, and this little piece of beautiful Florence history and architecture seemed to have been reserved for us. We highly recommend this tour.
