Latest reviews from our guests

Claudio is a super friendly person and great guide. We really enjoyed his tour of this beautiful city! He structured the tour around our interests and took time to explain all the sites and answer our questions. He also had good recommendations of restaurants, bars, food in general and sites of interest. I would highly recommend his tour.

My time with Mico was absolutely fantastic. He knows so much about the history, background and current status of bologna that he could fill several books. He was professional he was entertaining. He was very funny and made the entire tour one of the best I’ve ever taken. Everyone would be lucky to have him as your guide. He truly made the entire city and it’s past, and what it has to offer now totally come alive. Plus, the fact he knows the best gelato in the world. That we only spent a few hours together I consider him a friend and hopefully when I return to visit this fabulous city he will be there. If I could have, I would have taken several more of his tours!!!!
