This is my second Context class with Kate Bolton-Porciatti and like the first (Oltrarno), smooth flowing/well organized, full of interesting facts without being droll. She is obviously an expert on Florence and imparts a relaxed and and casual journey through the city that can be overwhelming with too much to see/do. I have visited Florence dozens of times and on each visit learn something new. These conversations offer a view one might miss unless, we had attended these lectures. I also appreciated the follow up notes.

I'm going to Florence/Tuscany in a few weeks. Kate's talk was an excellent primer on the top highlights, hidden gems, and even covered Italian artisan workshops that I'm interested in exploring. Also loved having the Q&A at the end where we asked specific questions to help plan our dream trips. I've been researching for months and still learned many new things. Grazie.

This is a MUST for anyone travelling to Tuscany and Florence. Kate Bolton-Porciatti is so interesting and the presentation is wonderful.
