On October 22nd, Gerry from City Unscripted took my wife and I through the beautiful old town of Tivoli. We began with a walk through the city streets, and Gerry took the time to explain how life in the middle ages affected the architecture of the city. He showed a deep knowledge of the area, its history and explained it very well. For Lunch, we ate at a small local restaurant where fresh pasta and wine from the owners' vineyard were provided - we didn't have to wait long, and the food tasted great. We then went through the Villa d'Este UNESCO World heritage Site, where we were given in-depth explanations on the meanings of the frescoes found in the villa, and looked upon many beautifully crafted fountains and well-maintained gardens. As we were running a bit short on time, our last two stops - The Tivoli Duomo Cattedrale di San Lorenzo (where we were allowed to see the ancient structure of the church) and the outer area of the Villa Gregoriano (where we saw a Roman temple) - were quite short, but Gerry wanted to fulfill my request of seeing more ancient structures from the Roman period, which was appreciated. Overall, I think we may have bit off more than we could chew, but Gerry was an excellent guide through the whole day.

Marilisa was very friendly and outgoing. She customized the food experience to our taste. She encouraged us to try new things and was very knowledgeable about the city and the culture.

Gianmarco was a great host and conversationalist. As he walked us around to the various restaurants and eateries he regained us with interesting stories and flavourful answers to our many questions.

We had a wonderful time. His Marco showed us quite a bit. We were surprised that it was a private tour, but it made things more intimate and nice.

Alessandro was such a wonderful tour guide! Being local he was so knowledgeable and we learned so much about Florence. He was flexible and showed us the things we were most interested in and gave us so much historical info which we loved. We felt like we were exploring Florence with an old friend!

Miguel or Michell was a great tour guide I love that he gave us history and details about items and things around Florence that we didn't know. The fact that he took his time with us I was very patient one of my relatives is very old and she wants to raise slow and I love the fact that he really just took the time to make all of us feel like family truly appreciate his time and I would definitely use him again as a tour guide and would definitely recommend them to someone else. Couple of the things that I really appreciated was that he took the time to take us to places that honestly were like one of those like you know places that are really known only if you are a local I like the fact that we came out of this experience feeling like we understood Florence so much better. And I want to thank him because he took the time out to help us out to figure out where we needed to be since we had to be at a certain location and again time from his from his own self and again truly thank him again and would recommend him.
