With its rich cultural and historical life, Florence is one of the most fascinating cities in Italy. Florence, the cradle of the renaissance, boasts an artistic patrimony that has made it one of the most celebrated and fascinating cities in the world.

Being a city of art and culture, Florence had attracted in the past a lot of famous painters and writers and is still home to lots of upcoming artists.

There is a big difference between taking pictures from a sightseeing bus like millions of other tourists and experiencing the city accompanied by a local who will guide you to his favourite places and explain you more about traditions and culture. You can walk though the local markets where you can find clothing and souvenirs, old prints and paintings and objects from the past (a few examples are San Lorenzo market, mercato centrale, mercato delle pulci).

A lot of fun for each tourist is going with a local to the calcio storico, a cross between Greco-Roman wrestling, rugby and soccer. It’s a traditional form of football, originated in 16th century, and only known lo locals.

Wouldn’t it be great if a local could tell you about the traditions and the secrets of such an old and wonderful city.
