She made booking so easy and fast. Was able to accommodate a very large group of us and helped us book a few excursions that we loved. She also made two restaurant recommendations that were outstanding. She lives in florence half of the year so she knew all of the local places to go to keep us out of the tourist traps. Can’t wait to go back to Florence!!! Use Rebecca!!!!

Our recent trip to Italy—covering Milan, the Dolomites, and Venice—was outstanding thanks to Rebecca’s exceptional planning and attention to detail. She coordinated all travel and hotel arrangements seamlessly and offered excellent restaurant recommendations throughout. We were very happy with her organization, responsiveness, and engagement throughout the process. Rebecca made the entire experience effortless and truly memorable. Highly recommend!

Site Inspection at Hotel Gallery Art in Florence, Italy
In May of 2024, I did a site inspection of the gorgeous Gallery Art Hotel located around the corner from the Pointe Vecchio. I’ve been to Florence over 10 times and by far this has been one of the top boutique hotels I’ve stayed at and can’t wait to come back again. I’ve already recommended this to one of my clients as she loves boutique hotels. To be in the mix of everything but also come back to a place that is quiet and comfortable is a huge win!

Secrets of Florence: Hidden Gems and Historic Wonders
Florence, or Firenze as the locals call it, is known as one of the world's most stunning cities and I couldn’t agree more — the city's streets are a living museum! Ever since my first visit in 2009, my heart has been in love with its vibrant culture, friendly locals, and exquisite cuisine. Whether you're shopping on Via Roma, exploring the countless museums, or hunting for secret wine windows, it's impossible not to wander with a smile. While the iconic, red-tiled dome of the Duomo and the historic Ponte Vecchio are famous, Florence's true charm lies beyond. Don’t miss out on the hidden treasures or the chance to cross the Arno to experience the city's local side, where you can soak in life as a true Florentine.
