We did the 4 hour tour with Chiara!. She was terrific! We saw so much of Balogna and learned so much about the history. Her story telling is very engaging and her English is excellent!
Show moreHer historical knowledge of Bologna is outstanding. Her flexibility was most appreciated — she seamlessly adapted to our pace and walking skills. It was great to have a guide in Italy who used to live in America. She was able to translate her knowledge of Bologna in a way that we as current Americans could easily relate to and comprehend. It wasn’t a lecture or a lesson; it was a three-way conversation the entire afternoon.
Show moreAndrea is Very knowledgeable and friendly.
Show moreClaudio provided an excellent bespoke tour of the city, customized to our interests and pace. Very personable, charming and fun to chat with. So many things would have been missed if we were not with him. He was really knowledgeable about the city, the architecture, the history and the food scene. We tried many of his food recommendations and all were excellent. Highly recommend.
