This trip is a perfect overview of the city with excellent photo opportunities. My husband and I arrived in Florence mid-day and I had scheduled this tour because I wanted to understand the layout of the city and save my feet for other adventures. My husband was skeptical but afterwords agreed that it was great!!! We covered a lot of ground. The rickshaw can fit in the alleys and Stefano is an engaging guide. He provided some history, great places to take photographs and recommendations based on our requests. His recommendations were excellent as we visited several places over the next few days. I would recommend going at the beginning of a trip as it will help you determine places that you explore further. Stefano puts in a lot of effort to ensure your trip meets your individual interests. Strongly recommend!!

Stefano from Rickshaw Service was fantastic to work with! He was very accommodating, and was even willing to work with me on possible rescheduling when I thought my flights were going to be delayed. Very nice, efficient, and easy to hear even in the bustling streets of Florence!

This is one of the best city tours I have taken. Stefano was so friendly, knowledgeable and informative. We had an absolutely delightful time on the 9pm tour. Stefano was accomadating enough to pick us up from our hotel (not on the list of pickup points), which we truly appreciated. The conversation was engaging and it felt like riding around with a friend we came to visit. If you are looking for a fun quick way to learn about Florence, you can't go wrong with this tour.

The tour with Stefano was the best way to start our weekend in Florence. We learned a great deal about the city and saw a few things we may otherwise have overlooked. Stefano was responsive leading up to the tour, passionate about the history of his city, and even kept in touch with us after the tour to answer any questions we had during our stay. I highly recommend this tour.
