    Nunzia was so considerate about what we wanted do; she tailored our tour around the time of day (we started at 8:00 in the morning) and to accommodate the food tour we booked immediately after our tour with her. She even gave us some suggestions for things to do after our tour.

    I rarely leave a review, but I wanted to for this tour. Filippo was our guide and my wife and I really liked him, he was calm and very knowledgeable. What a nice young man. We walked for 3 hours in a gentle pace, not taxing us at all. Fillipo took us to so many interesting places, maybe not the ones that tours often do. We learned so much about Siena and the people, the 17 districts, the churches, university, etc. He gave us great recommendations for gelato and a nice restaurant. We can certainly highly recommend him for any tour in the area. Everything we asked him about, he was able to explain in perfect English to us.

    Paolina was an amazing guide! She was very friendly, super knowledgeable and so easy to spend the afternoon with. She took me all over Bologna. We hit all of the highlights, saw places others might miss and she let me in on secrets only a local would know. I finished the tour fully ready to take on Bologna and made a wonderful friend in the process. I highly recommend Paolina! Thanks for everything!!!
