Glam ! Italia by Corinna Cooke

Florence is magnificent. Most visitors see only a fraction of it and spend half their trip in the wrong lines.

Imagine having a brilliant friend who has spent decades wandering Florence's streets, who knows it like a local and knows exactly which doors to push open.

Glam Italia 101 Fabulous Things To Do In Florence is the insider's guide to the Renaissance city written not as a list of monuments to check off, but as a rich, story-filled companion that makes Florence feel entirely, personally yours.

Discover Florence Like an Insider

  • Proven strategies to experience the Uffizi, the Accademia, and Brunelleschi's Dome without the stress of long wait times
  • Hidden palaces, piazzas, and churches just blocks from the crowds virtually empty, utterly stunning, and full of stories most visitors never hear
  • The juicy, fascinating history behind what you're looking at: the Medici, Michelangelo, Dante, and the city's centuries of scandal, genius, and beauty

Eat, Drink & Shop Like a Local

  • Where Florentines actually eat from neighborhood trattorias to aperitivo bars to the artisan gelato makers worth seeking out
  • What to order in Tuscany, which wines belong in your glass, and what to skip entirely
  • The markets, artisan shops, and specialty stores that make Florence a dream for curious travelers

Make Every Minute Count

  • A What's Nearby? section for every single site, so you can cluster your day intelligently and move through the city like someone who belongs there
  • Practical, honest guidance on fitting the city around your schedule whether you have two days or two weeks
  • Everything within walking distance of the Duomo, because Florence rewards those who slow down and wander

Why Readers Call This Their Favorite Florence Book

This isn't a maps-and-monuments guide. It's a deep, passionate, story-rich companion written by someone who has spent decades learning Florence the way locals know it.

This guide makes me feel as if my best friend, who lives in the city, is telling me about her favorite places.

If you love genuine history, extraordinary hidden gems, and travel writing that actually makes you feel something this book was written for you.
