I come from the historical City of Speyer in Germany, known for the world cultural heritage and landmark of the city “the Imperial Cathedral of Speyer” and therefore I am a genuine Palatinate!
Immediately after graduating from High School, I decided to study Arthistory and Conservation of Paintings in the Renaissance City of Florence. This stay shaped my whole life and the attraction of this fascinating City was forever.

Visit Florence with an official City Guide
I am a licensed Tour guide of Florence since 2007 and have been showing the amazing sights to visitors from all over the world with humor and enthusiasm. Discover the secrets of Florence that only an insider can know and enjoy the experience of stories, food, art, culture, and flavor of this unique and exciting city – Florence.
Organize a Family Tour
I will be happy to design a walking tour for all ages in the family. The tour will have a particular focus on the younger generation. A stop for gelato in a local favourite place is necessary for refuelling !!! Having two younger children I definitely know what a young audience need in a city like Florence.
Feel like a Florentine
The Oltrarno—literally “across the Arno”—stands apart from Florence’s busy central and eastern quarters. Traditionally it retains a peaceful and workaday atmosphere, full of artisans’ studios, antiques stores, bars, and small restaurants. At the same time it features plenty of historic sights, not least the art-filled Palazzo Pitti and the church of San Miniato al Monte.

What a wonderful day! Christiane was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history, architecture, artists, and art of Florence. She brought the city and artwork to life for our group of four. We learned so much! I highly recommend this guide for your visit to Florence!

Christiane was a treasure. She is clearly knowledgeable and informed about history, geography, art, architecture, food, customs, and more. She was also full of humor and experience around the city of Firenze. She was great to chat back and forth with, willing to be asked all sorts of quite impossible questions and to offer back whatever she knew – which was plenty.

Christiane is the best, she has the knowledge, patience, and flexibility to ensure an optimum experience. Our time w Christiane gave us insights and information to “feel” the history of Florence. In addition she offered creative ideas for exploring the city on our own. Perfection.
