We had a fabulous week based in Florence. Would highly recommend our lovely apartment. Great location and close to all our needs. The apartment had everything you would ever need and the host, Massimo, was so welcoming and helpful throughout our complete stay. The buildings, churches and cathedral are very interesting. Easy to walk to the centre and explore all the sights. Did not have a bad meal out once and Massimno's recommendations were top class. Try the local florentine steaks and the wine - very nice! The organised tours to the Chianti wine region is a must. Again, our host, Massimo, was so easy to contact and replied very quickly.
