Villa San Michele

Personal Shopper

Treat yourself to a visit to the splendid shops in Florence with our personal shopper, Angela Carpio who will guide you to “just the right places” according to your individual personality and fashion tastes. This exculsive service is available for both Gentlemen and Ladies.

Drive through the city’s historical centre by golf cart or by private car with driver where palaces, piazzas and enticing boutiques can be admired to your heart’s content!

Following the round of boutiques, you will enjoy a glimpse of Florence’s artisan traditions of the past with a visit to the oldest existing workshop of Florentine mosaics.  Here, the craftsmen will demonstrate the renowned Florentine technique of inlaid semi-precious stone mosaic work.

If, instead, your preference leans towards ceramics, you may choose a visit to one of the most prestigious traditional ceramic workshops in the city where expert Italian ceramists make and decorate their items by hand, using a particular technique that allows the splendid colours to remain intact throughout the years.

We advise reserving in advance. Please contact our concierge.
