Latest reviews from our guests

Daniele was a great guide. We very much appreciated him taking us to the surrounding hills in his car. It was great to see more than just the old town to get a better feel for the area. His lunch spot was excellent. We enjoyed walking in the old city and exploring his hidden gems and “secrets”. A great day.

Lorenza was an extremely excellent tour guide. She has fantastic knowledge, not only for being a local, but due to her knowledge of history, culture, architecture, as well as great delivery in both English and Spanish...and a great sense of humor. She is the kind of guide that visitors enjoy to the max. Thank you Lorenza!!
