Sinagoga e Museo Ebraico di Firenze (Tempio Maggiore)
Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore
She mainly wandered the Duomo area and the streets around it, plus along the river.
Siena historic centre
Easy drive from a Chianti or Arezzo base in Tuscany.
25hours Hotel Piazza San Paolino
She stayed here; Dario Cecchini's restaurant is inside the hotel on Piazza San Paolino.
Asciano agriturismo
Small estate on a Tuscan farm near Asciano — remote and quiet, with hill views toward Siena and Italian breakfast outdoors.
Buca Mario
Book via their website — it's packed. Order bistecca alla fiorentina (medium rare), pappa al pomodoro, raw artichoke-parmesan salad, ragù pasta, and the trolley tiramisù with cantuccini & Vin Santo.
Gallerie degli Uffizi
She says it's an absolute must-visit in Florence.
I' Girone De' Ghiotti
On via de' Cimatori: no hour-long line, thin crispy bread. Try the veggie panino - 3-cheese fondue, truffle cream, roast eggplant, arugula.
Osteria delle Belle Donne
Her first stop in Florence: knock on the little wooden 'buchetta del vino' hole in the wall on Via delle Belle Donne, order from the menu beside it and a glass of red comes through.
Piazza del Campo
Stunning at dusk with the Palazzo Pubblico and Torre del Mangia lit up, but don't eat at the restaurants on the square — touristy, rushed food; she disliked the pizza.
Ponte Vecchio
Day trip from Rome — Florence is within about two hours.
Sinagoga e Museo Ebraico di Firenze (Tempio Maggiore)
Moorish-style synagogue with a green dome, built 1874-1882; ticket office at via Farini 6.
Torre del Mangia
Lit up at night over Piazza del Campo — the view is the reason to come.
Caffè G.M
Everything is roasted on site — stop for a morning espresso and buy beans, teas and local Tuscan wine.
Caffè Scudieri
Historic 1939 café on Piazza San Giovanni facing the Duomo — start the morning with latte and a croissant; their coffee is a must.
Don Nino
Taste the cannoli at the Florence branch — ricotta and pistachio, 'exactly like in Rome'.
Piazza della Signoria
Go early morning to have the square almost to yourself, or at night when the Fountain of Neptune is lit up.
Tenimenti Andreucci
There's a winery every 100 m in Tuscany but she recommends this one — taste the Chianti reds Costavecchia, Regale, Giobatta, Donna Alma.
Duomo di Siena
Come see the facade at night too — she says Siena is stunning both by night and by day.
Hotel Calimala
Central luxury boutique with a rooftop view bar; code Traveliri on their site gives 5% off plus a bottle of wine.
Osteria le Logge
Go for the mushroom pizza with red wine and the truffle beef carpaccio — she calls the carpaccio 'fire'.
Palazzo Vecchio
Come at night — the lit Fountain of Neptune and the David replica stand right outside; grab a quick espresso at a classic bar nearby.
PiccoloMini
Stop for the local gelato; there's a bistro in the little courtyard at the rear.
Antiche Tenute Squarcialupi - La Castellina
The area's biggest wine shop — La Castellina Chianti Classico is the famous local bottle and they ship worldwide; Riserva around €18.
Cecchini in Città
Dario Cecchini's city spot inside the 25hours Hotel: start with fried dough, prosciutto and mustard; lunch came to €58.
Cibrèo Caffè
One of her Florence favourites.
Fontana del Nettuno
Beautiful lit up at night beside Palazzo Vecchio — 'Buonasera Firenze'.
Gelateria della Passera
Recommended by a local expert: go only to Cinzia's place on Piazza della Passera - 'gran gelato'; ask for the date sorbet.
Il Grande N'utilise
On her list of favourite Florence restaurants.
Il Santino
Her pick for a wine bar in Florence - tiny, go early.
La Fettunta
On her list of favourite Florence restaurants.
Osteria Pizzeria Sotto le Logge del Papa
She says screenshot and save it — this is the restaurant to eat at in Siena.
Piazza della Repubblica
Come in the evening for the lit historic carousel and the Christmas lights on Rinascente.
Piazza Santo Spirito
Market stalls with Tuscan cheeses and salumi - pecorino Fiore Sardo, sbriciolona, salame toscano, guanciale.
Pizzeria Caffè Italiano
Hidden behind a restaurant entrance: only 6 tables and a huge oven turning out perfect Neapolitan pizzas. Save it.
Trattoria Sostanza
One of the Florence restaurants she loved most - reserve ahead.
Vivoli
Come at 9am opening to skip the line and order the viral affogato (gelato + espresso) at the wine window.
Giostra Antica di Piazza della Repubblica
The vintage carousel under the arch, with painted Ponte Vecchio panels, is a lovely winter photo stop.
Piazza della Passera
Charming little Oltrarno square - eat your gelato there by the Christmas-lit tree.
Trattoria dei Tre Amici
Cozy spot for a romantic dinner — order the truffle tagliolini and the baked lasagna.
Via dei Magazzini
Walk the centro's lanes around 7am — the streets are completely empty, just you and the locals.
Mercato Centrale Firenze
The original branch where this cool food-market chain started.
Museo dell'Opera del Duomo
Right by the Duomo — worth circling the area around it.
Piazza del Duomo
In winter the Christmas tree goes up in the square, next to the Baptistery and Giotto's bell tower.
Piazza Pio II
The Duomo and Palazzo Piccolomini both sit on this square — best gelato photo spot in town.
Piazza Santa Croce
Nice stop on a stroll along the Arno and its bridges.
Ponte Santa Trinita
Great spot for the Arno view with the colorful riverside houses.

A narrow central lane with stencil street art on the walls.
