A once-in-a-lifetime experience. Patrizia was like our Nana, who made us feel right at home and was generous in opening her home to us and sharing her timeless family traditions.

Cornelia was special- in the pouring rain she never faltered in sharing with great enthusiasm all she could in those few hours about the majesty of Florence- she put us in a place in time that we continue to talk about with fascination. When I think of Florence, I think of that tour with Cornelia as a true highlight.

Our Sites and Insights walking tour of Florence with Ilaria was an exceptional. With her authentic expertise, Ilaria brought Florence’s rich history, politics, economics, and art vividly to life in a way that was both immersive and deeply engaging. Her impressive knowledge and this tour truly enhanced our visit; Ilaria was incredibly generous with her time, and even later offered thoughtful shopping suggestions for our teen daughters. We’re thrilled to have discovered Context Travel—this will be the only tour company we trust for our future travels!
