VISITE GUIDATE A FIRENZE E IN TOSCANA

I recently visited Florence with a large group of friends and relatives, there were 11 of us. I booked Agata from Guide Me Florence to guide our tour of the Uffizi Museum. It was like a private art history class for our group! Agata basically gave us a history of the renaissance leading us through the artworks and showing how they evolved. Obviously, this museum is so large there is no way to see everything in one visit which is why a tour is so valuable. Agata’s knowledge of the subject matter was so extensive, I realized just how little I know about art. After the tour my companions were raving about our experience and couldn’t believe I found such an amazing resource. Next time I am in Florence, I would definitely book another tour with Guide Me Florence. You won’t be disappointed!

Bardzo serdecznie polecamy Panią Agatę. Pełen profesjonalizm i wiedza przekazana przyjemnie i solidnie w 2,5h. Pani Agata oprowadziła nas po Florencji, ale oprowadza też po Sienie, Pizie, Lucce.
Warto dać się oprowadzić Pani Agacie ! Polecamy !!! 😄

Bardzo dziękujemy za wspaniały czas w Sienie, Pizie i Florencji. Pomimo zróżnicowanej wiekowo grupie Pani Agata zainteresowała nas wszystkich. Ciekawe opowieści, wiedza i poczucie humoru sprawiły, że wizytę w tych miejscach będziemy jeszcze długo wspominać.
Mamy nadzieję, że do zobaczenia 😊

We were lucky enough to have Agata as our guide for 4 days and she made our vacation in Florence amazing. Agata worked with us to create an itinerary that focused on our daughter's request for all things Medici as well as a day out in Siena. Lunches were chosen at perfect locations and we never felt rushed or tired. We appreciated the thought Agata put in scheduling breaks and the knowledge she shared. We can't recommend Agata and Guide me Florence enough. We fell in love with Florence and can't wait to go back.

Agata was wonderful.

In early April my wife and I visited Florence and the Val D'Orica area of south Tuscany for three weeks. On two occasions, we had the good fortune to use the services of @GuideMeFlorence for tours and to spend several hours with @AgataChryanowska, an amazingly well-informed guide, who first spent seven hours explaining the intricacies of life in Florence under the Medici reign, the life and works of Leonardo and Michelangelo and where to lunch in style in Florence @Vinievecchisapori.

Our second day with Agata was spent in Sienna. Here we learned about how Sienna developed, the importance of the Sienna neighbourhoods, the history and excitement of "The Palio" horse race and all about the art and techniques used in the amazing Siena Cathedral. Once again, she found an amazing place for us to enjoy lunch and she left us with an understanding of the 1000 year old traditions that still impact everyday life in this great city.

Laura was a fastastic tour guide. Being an artist myself, I appreciated her sense of detail on all the works we saw at the gallery. Would highly recommend!!!

Lucy was very knowledgeable about the history and art at the Uffizi museum. So glad we had her as our guide. She also had great recommendations for food that we later had for our dinner.

Agata is a wonderful, warm, generous, smart, passionate and expert guide. We loved our time with her. You will too.

Four of us spent a brilliant 5 days in Florence in April 2025. We chose to have a guided walking tour for two and a half hours on our first morning to get a feel for the architecture, art and history of this lovely town. Agata met us at the pre-arranged time and proceeded to provide us with a fascinating description of the buildings, the reason for their location and the history behind their construction and details of their decoration. We walked (easy walking) to around 10 places of interest (this tour did not include entry to any, which suited us as we wanted to select those which we would go into later) and the in-depth knowledge that Agata displayed was astonishing (one tip was, don't blindly enter all Cathedrals because they are so lovely on the outside, often all the money was spent on the outside and the insides can be anti-climatic).
This was not one of those tours with 50 people following a distant flag with radio earpieces to hear a commentary. Agata specialises in small, personal tours, where she can speak directly to her audience and engage in conversation and answer questions.
Agata was a great guide, highly recommended, and well worth the money.

Agata is the guide you want to hire in Florence or beyond! Her passion and depth of knowledge of the art and history of Florence made our tour amazing. The bonus is what a terrific and hospitable person she is. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and the depth she brought to our experience in Florence. Highest recommendation!

Aghata ci ha accompagnato in due stupende visite guidate: gli Uffizi e la visita alla città con la chiesa di Santa Croce. Il nostro gruppo di due famiglie aveva 5 bambini tra i 6 e i 14 anni e il suo racconto si è adattato perfettamente alle esigenze di tutti, grandi e piccoli. Una guida molto interattiva, super preparata che ha soddisfatto ogni nostra curiosità. Puntuale e sorridente, ha portato con sé tutto il necessario dalle radioline ( indispensabili per sentirci nella folla) ad un piccolo libretto x accompagnare la visita come una sorta di caccia al tesoro. Senza di lei non avremmo saputo che Firenze è piena di così tanti tesori. Il prezzo corretto per il servizio offerto, sicuramente da consigliare!

Our guide was knowledgeable and patient, answering our questions thoroughly. We got a much better appreciation for the places we visited. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Florence.

Oprowadzenie po Florencji z panią Agatą było niezwykle ciekawym doświadczeniem. Zdecydowaliśmy się na czterogodzinny spacer po mieście z wizytą w dwóch zabytkach: Santa Maria Novella i Kaplicach Medycejskych z przepiękną kaplicą grobową zaprojektowaną przez Michała Anioła - Sagrestia Nuova. W Santa Maria Novella mogliśmy podziwiać między innymi freski Domenico Ghirlandaio, na temat których pani Agata napisała swoją pracę doktorską, więc otrzymaliśmy interesującą porcję fachowej wiedzy. Niezwykle interesujący sposób opowiadania, profesjonalizm, jej pasja, miły głos i sposób bycia sprawiły, że czas minął nam zbyt szybko, moglibyśmy słuchać jej godzinami. Pani Agato, dziękujemy! Z pewnością jeszcze wrócimy do Florencji.

The guided tour of Florence with Agata was an extremely interesting experience. We decided to take a four-hour walk around the city with a visit to two monuments: Santa Maria Novella and the Medici Chapels with the beautiful tomb chapel designed by Michelangelo - the Sagrestia Nuova. In Santa Maria Novella, we were able to admire, among other things, the frescoes of Domenico Ghirlandaio, on which Agata wrote her doctoral thesis, so we received an interesting portion of professional knowledge. Her extremely interesting way of telling stories, her professionalism, her passion, her pleasant voice and manner made the time pass all too quickly, we could have listened to her for hours. Ms Agata, thank you! We will certainly return to Florence again.

My tour with Agata was the highlight of my trip to Florence. Having a dedicated guide through the Uffizi & Accademia changed the entire experience. I learned so much, fell in love with works I’d known previously and discovered many others. It’s clear that Agata is passionate about providing clients with the best possible experience. If I could have her with me at every museum I would jump at the opportunity!

We booked Agata for a three hour private tour for our party of 4 in September of 2024. Based on our requests, she took us through the Uffizi, the Accademia and the Basilica di San Lorenzo. It was wonderful to be free to focus on what we were seeing and leave the logistics to Agata. We enjoyed our tour immensely. Agata is not only extremely knowledgeable but very passionate about what she was showing us. We will definitely be booking again with her on our next trip to Florence in 2025.

Pani Agata pokazała nam Florencję w dwa dni, zwiedziliśmy m.in. Muzeum Uffizi i Galerię Akademii, tempo było idealne, wiedza imponująca, interpretacje dzieł nie raz nas zaskoczyły, mamy nadzieję, że kiedyś będziemy mieli jeszcze okazję spotkać się z Panią Agatą, polecamy gorąco

My wife and I highly recommend Guide me Florence for a great visit to Florence. Agata, our tour coordinator, did an absolute wonderful job planning a great day that met our interests with all the time constraints we (unfortunately) had. Agata worked very well with us and was a terrific and timely communicator. Our tour guide Francesca, was absolutely incredible. She was able to create an experience that not only covered the “must sees”, but also capture a local flavor. Her lunch selection was great! We were on a tight time schedule, and while I am sure Francesca felt rushed, we never did. And her knowledge and ability to share her vision of the art to this novice at the Accademia Gallery and Uffizi was unapparelled and why I will recommend her to all my friends and family lucky enough to visit Florence.

Fantastic tour. Agata is very knowledgeable and really brought Florence to life for us. Highly recommend.

Agata is the perfect guide for anyone who wants to tour Florence and the Tuscany area. The extent of her knowledge defies expectations. She knows history, art history, architecture, etc. She is also very accomadating. She worked entirely within our schedule and was flexible regarding changes. She also provided us with a list of places to stay and restaurants for dining and let us make the choices. All of her suggestions were ourstanding. We cannot recommend her highly enough.

Bardzo polecamy zwiedzanie z panią Agatą 🙂 Podczas oprowadzania po Galerii Uffizi przekazała nam - bardzo przystępnie - mnóstwo ciekawych informacji. Była to dla nas o wiele ciekawsza wizyta niż poprzednia, kiedy korzystaliśmy z drukowanym przewodników i audioguide'a.

We had a wonderful experience with these private tours. Our guides were warm, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. They not only made us feel welcome in Florence, they gave us a great understanding of what we were looking at as well as the context. I highly recommend.

Agata is an excellent tour guide! Our family hired Agata for a tour of the Uffizi Galleries this summer, and she did a great job curating the Uffizi collection for us. Agata has deep knowledge of Italian art, and was able to clearly explain the importance and historical significance of the key art pieces at the Uffizi. Agata also was very responsive to our questions, and did an awesome job engaging our two teenage kids. We'll certainly try to book Agata again the next time we are in Florence!

Mieliśmy przyjemność spędzić dwa dni na zwiedzaniu Florencji w towarzystwie Pani Agaty. Pełen profesjonalizm, punktualna, bardzo kontaktowa osoba, fantastycznie przekazuje wiedzę - zaciekawi nawet najbardziej znudzonego nastolatka :), jest nieszablonową przewodniczką, z ogromną pasją i szacunkiem do sztuki. Idealnie dobrała dla Nas tempo zwiedzania, czas, miejsca,. Bardzo byliśmy zadowoleni i czekamy na więcej 🙂

This was my 2nd time to Florence and the private guided tour with "GUIDE ME FLORENCE" was the BEST way to see the museums and significant sites. Thank you so much for an amazing tour and in-depth understanding of the history, frescoes and paintings!

This was a phenomenal tour. Agata is so knowledgeable, and explains the paintings and architecture that is so fascinating. I definitely highly recommend Agata. Thank you Agata for sharing your knowledge with us 2 Canadians.

Extremely knowledgeable and articulate. She is clearly passionate about her guiding and was able to pass on information that made the morning rather special and not superficial by just visiting the obvious tourist attractions.

Agata came highly recommended to us and she did not disappoint! Her depth of knowledge on the Medici family and sites we visited was incredible. She expertly wove historical, artistic and architectural details into a narrative that took us back in time. Highly recommend!!

My wife and I had a great private tour with Agata. She has a wealth of knowledge!

10/10 Excellent. Agata and Lucy are brilliant. Great communication when organising the trip. Lucy has deep knowledge about all of Florence, history, architecture, art and art history. Best tour company I have ever used

Gorąco polecam zwiedzanie Florencji z Panią Agatą. Spędziliśmy wspaniale czas, dowiadując się wielu fascynujących rzeczy. Oprowadzanie było na najwyższym poziomie! Co więcej, Pani Agata tak zaplanowała trasę, że dzięki niej większość czasu spędziliśmy w cieniu, co było szczególnie cenne w tak słoneczny dzień.

Our Dear friends recommended Agata to us to guide us through Florence. Not only did Agata organize all of our reservations and book our tickets, she also clearly is an art historian who is able to teach her clients about the art and architecture of this beautiful city in a way that belies her love for Florence. Memorably, she guided us through the Uffizi Gallery which would have been daunting had we done it alone. I highly recommend her guidance. It surely made our time in Firenze a better one.

Pani Agata to profesjonalny, świetny przewodnik z dużą wiedzą historyczną, nie tylko z Florencji, ale także z regionu. Z przyjmnością zwiedzało się miasto, niezapomniane wrażenia, dziękujemy bardzo.

We booked a personalized tour of Florence with Agata and we had the most wonderful experience! To start with, Agata planed our tour ideally, keeping in mind that we are a family with kids, arranging our time early enough to avoid the summer heat and crowds and arranged for our tickets. She tried to keep our children interested while explaining everything about the history of Florence. We learnt a lot new and very interesting information about the history, buildings and life of Florence while walking around the city and then visiting the Uffizi. Agata had planned every detail, answered all our questions, she was even so kind to try to involve our youngest one in the whole experience. We will definitely suggest Agata to our friends in the future and we would like to thank her for a memorable tour!

We spent a great half-day with Agata in Florence!
We organised a private tour of the Accademia, Uffizzi Gallery and the city centre. Agata provided us with an excellent guidance of the art we saw, the city's history, the architecture. Very interesting information. Not too much, not too little, all to the point! Definitely recommend! 😊

Zwiedzanie Florencji z Panią Agatą było niezwykle interesujące. Jest bardzo profesjonalną przewodniczką z gruntownym wykształceniem i ogromną wiedzą, którą przekazuje w sposób bardzo ciekawy i przystępny. Chociaż nasz pobyt trwał tylko kilka godzin i wybraliśmy spacer po historycznym centrum Florencji plus wizyta w Galerii Accademia to wyjechaliśmy zachwyceni i pełni niedosytu. Dziękujemy.

I contacted Agata to arrange a guide. We required one for three separate days. Agata guided for one session, Isabella for another and Laura for another. The quality of their knowledge and delivery is outstanding. Much more than a guide, it would be better to call them historians. So knowledgable but also able to relay the information in a way which is engaging and informative. We were a party of 4 and I cannot praise them enough. Truly excellent. Thank you Agata if we return I will absolutely contact you again.

Agata was a fantastic tour guide today taking us through the beautiful city of Florence. She was extremely knowledgeable about the city, the history and answered all our questions. She showed us some amazing sites and some interesting areas we would not have seen had we not had the expertise of her guidance. We were a family of four traveling with two young adults so she made every aspect interesting for everyone. I highly recommend Agata the next time you visit Florence!

Agatha was our private tour guide of Florence this past Sunday. She was engaging, informative and an expert on all things Florence! We were very pleased with her presentation! We covered the main points of interest over 2 1/2 hours and she managed to keep us interested and focused! We highly recommend Agatha if you are looking for thorough and thoutful guide!

Polecam serdecznie zwiedzanie Florencji z Panią Agatą. Bardzo dobrze spędziliśmy czas i poznaliśmy wiele ciekawostek. Oprowadzanie było bardzo profesjonalne!

Our family took a walking tour with Agata on our first day in Florence. She has a sweet, kind personality, and her passion for the history and art of Florence is evident. She's extremely knowledgeable and gave us insights that we would have never gotten on our own. We highly recommend her!

Agata was the best! She was so warm and welcoming to our family! She is extremely knowledgeable. We are so grateful for the time that we spent with her!

As a UK school teacher I brought a group of 20 students (16/17-year-olds) to Florence for a four-day trip with Agata as our guide. I cannot praise Agata enough for her knowledge, presentation skills and professionalism. Every aspect of the trip was seamless, with Agata having taken care of bookings, guiding us around and providing ear-pieces and a whisper system where necessary. She managed to keep all of our students engaged and enthused with her detailed subject knowledge and very personable manner. They really loved her. Agata also shared her local knowledge so that we were able to enjoy our down time getting to know the 'real' Florence through excellent cafes, bars and restaurants. I came away from the trip confident that the students had learnt a huge amount and developed a passion for Florentine history and culture, and those going on to sit their History of Art exams had been helped hugely. We all had a fantastic time and this was primarily down to the care that Agata put into this trip for us. We are very grateful and I will definitely be looking to book Agata again for any future trips. Thank you Agata!

Agata organised for me and my kids the experience to see the statue of David!
What a blast, my girls loved it! Funny insights and lots of great stories!
Thank you Agata. Can’t wait to do another museum with you!

Our group of 4 did a Medici tour of Florence with Agata. It could not have been better. We covered a lot of ground and learned a lot from her expertise. The experience was so much richer than doing it on our own with our heads buried in guidebook descriptions. Can't recommend more highly.

Simply the best! After having Agata guiding us through Florence, Pisa and Siena last May it was no brainer to have her guide us again this fall. Words can not describe her knowledge, passion and her kind personality among many other wonderful qualities. She stands out way above any other guide I have dealt with before and I have dealt with quite a few.
Agatko, już nie możemy się doczekać kolejnego zwiedzania razem. Pięknie dziękujemy za wszystko.
A presto.

My wife and I have done two tours with Agata around Florence and loved it! Agata is an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and very pleasant to spend time with. Highly recommended! We have another tour scheduled with our kids and her and are very much looking forward to it!
