Guide Bio
My name is Barbara. I was born and raised in Florence, but I like to describe myself as a global trotter. I am 32 and I live in Florence ,where I work as tourist guide and take care of the family bed & breakfast (B&B FLO), where I also live.
I graduated in Tourism & Business at the University of Florence. I’ve also studied in England, Germany and Chile as an exchange student. As I love foreign languages and traveling, I started working as tour leader, showing the highlights of my region, Tuscany, to travelers from all over the world. Once I gained the licence of excursion guide, I started leading hiking and bike tours throughout Tuscany and Liguria and now I am mainly working as local guide in Florence, since I gained the licence in 2013.
I am an art lover. During the off season and in my free time, I paint and enjoy photography.
I offer original and professional tours in Florence and museums for English, Spanish and Portuguese speaking travelers. My job is to take care of you and show you the secrets and highlights of one of the most charming city in the world!
