More Than Guides. True Florentines.
Authentic Private Tours in Florence and Tuscany, Created by People Who Live Here
Tuscan Unfiltered is not just a tour operator. It is the result of a deep bond with Tuscany, shaped by people who live, breathe and love this land every day.
Founded by Mirko and Elisa, Tuscan Unfiltered was created to share a more authentic side of Florence and the Tuscan countryside: not the polished version made for tourists, but the real one, found in local stories, family traditions, hidden villages, artisan workshops, food, wine and places that still keep their soul.
We design private experiences in Florence and Tuscany for travelers who want something deeper than a standard tour. Something personal. Something honest. Something truly Tuscan.
Born in Tuscany.
Built on Trust.
Tuscan Unfiltered was born from the union of life and professional vision of Mirko and Elisa.
Mirko, a true Florentine with deep roots in the city, brings years of experience in the luxury travel and private driver sector. He knows Florence not only through its monuments, but through its streets, stories, habits, flavors and people. His strength is storytelling: the ability to turn every transfer, every walk and every stop into a living tale.
Elisa brings structure, precision and calm intelligence to every journey. With her background in logistics and problem solving for major Italian companies, she makes sure every detail works smoothly, even when the itinerary is complex.
Together, they created Tuscan Unfiltered to offer private tours and tailor-made experiences that feel personal, sincere and carefully designed.
A Local Network, Not a Tourist Catalogue
Every winery, artisan, home, restaurant and local partner we suggest is personally selected. We do not build experiences from a catalogue. We choose them because we have lived them, tested them and trusted them first.
If something does not move us, we do not offer it to you.
This is what makes Tuscan Unfiltered different: every experience is built around real people, real places and real connections. From food and wine traditions to artisan culture, from Florence’s hidden corners to the Tuscan countryside, our goal is to take you beyond the obvious.
The People Behind the Experience
Mirko
A Florentine by origin and spirit, Mirko has spent years working with international travelers in the luxury travel world.
His knowledge of Florence and Tuscany goes far beyond routes and landmarks. He brings together history, local culture, culinary traditions and the instinct of someone who truly belongs here.
Elisa
Elisa is the mind behind the flow. Her experience in logistics and problem solving allows Tuscan Unfiltered to create smooth, elegant and well-organized private experiences, where every detail feels natural instead of forced.
Aldo & Marco
Aldo and Marco bring deep experience in Florentine tourism and hospitality. Their knowledge of hotels, guests and relationships in the heart of Florence adds another layer of trust, care and local expertise to the Tuscan Unfiltered project.
Our Philosophy: From Tourist to Guest
We believe the best way to discover Tuscany is not to consume it, but to enter it.
That is why our private experiences are designed to break the distance between “tourist” and “guest”.
We want you to feel welcomed with the honest, warm and direct spirit that once belonged to the Tuscan countryside and still survives in the right places.
No tourist traps. No empty performances.
No decorative nonsense dressed up as authenticity.
Just Florence and Tuscany as we know them: generous, layered, imperfect, beautiful and real.
