What an amazing space.
Marco was kind enough to pick us up from the airport upon arrival into Florence.
He showed us through the loft and provided advice on buses into town, tips of tourists spots and great places to eat.
We also mentioned that we were keen to see some wineries - half an hour later, Marco had sent through a website link where we were able to book tours in Chianti!! He also checked in on us half way through the stay and also offer to book a taxi for departure - talk about hospitality!
My favourite thing though about this little loft was a little framed pasta recipe in the kitchen. It was a cute little touch and all the ingredients were provided to make an easy, very tasty Italian meal which we loved!
The place itself is located about 15 minutes from town via bus. The bus stop to get into town is a short walk from the loft itself. On your way back you get off at the bar/ cafe down the road which is about a 10 minute walk up a hill.
We ended up making our way to Chianti ourselves rather than on a tour - it was quite easy to get to and I would definitely recommend this as a day trip if you have time. There is a small town a short walk up a hill from Greve in Chianti called Montefioralle - it’s incredible.
We would definitely recommend Marco and his place for anyone looking for a great experience in Florence - I cannot rate this place more highly! 11/10
