I’ve lived in Florence for 25 years
I speak English, Spanish, Italian
I am Front Desk Manager
Here's Martina, a florentine 26 years old girl who is in love with food and travelling. I just graduated in Florence and I'm currently working as Front Desk Manager in a Bed&Breakfast in the city centre. Throughout my work experience, and also while accompanying all my Spanish friends during their holidays here in Italy, I realized how much I was interested in guiding people to hidden places, bars and restaurants, and have walks with them in beautiful gardens. I am really passionate about food and always love to try new restaurants to discover what's new in town. I am also working in the cultural world, and by living in a city such as Florence, exploring and talking about art is essential! A really good holiday is a mix of food, landscapes, traditions and art! You just need to figure out which is the best way to enjoy it for you! I lived here for all my life, I know this city as my pocket, and it would be a pleasure to experience its hidden (and not so hidden) gems with you!
Martina was amazing! She met us at our hotel and gave us a tour of a bunch of different neighborhoods in Florence, sharing the history of the churches and landmarks we passed and pointing out details in the art and architecture that we wouldn't have noticed on our own. It was so nice to be able to go at our own pace - we're fast walkers and city people, but we had spent most of the week on group tours, slowly moving with a large crowd and not seeing as much as we'd like to see. Martina knew the city so well, and we really felt that she gave us some unique insight into what life is like for locals. She recommended some great places to visit and eat! Would definitely recommend a tour with her to friends and family.
