Sandro una guida amica molto paziente

Sandro é stata la nostra guida per la mattinata. É stato molto disponibile e paziente soprattutto con la nostra bambina. Ci siamo divertiti ed abbiamo visitato la città passeggiando allegramente senza accorgerci che il tempo passava. Grazie!

The outing with Sandro was fun for us and for the kids too!

Thanks to Sandro, our Italian guide who has lived in London for over 10 years, visiting the historical heart of London was fun and never boring. It was interesting also for our kids, Niccolò and Cosimo (10 and 12 year old!) Grazie a Sandro, la nostra guida italiana ormai a Londra da 10 anni, il giro tra la Londra storica è risultato divertente e mai noioso, interessante anche per Niccolò e Cosimo ( 10 e 12 anni!).
