George was an excellent guide and really made the city come alive for us. He explained the history of the neighborhoods we toured and pointed out things we would have never noticed or understood. He also gave great recommendations for restaurants and a wine tasting. We would definitely book him again in the future!

Richard

Zarina was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the history of the area. Very leisurely and fun day.

Bluette

I liked it when the host would have prepared the location and yet be flexible with what the guests preferred yet still in the general planned itinerary. I like it that time was not an issue meaning the host didn’t mind extending.
