Silvia was so fantastic.... - Silvia was so fantastic. She walked my mom and I around a few squares and the arena and she knew so much about the city’s history. We were so grateful for her knowledge. We can’t wait to be back in Verona!

How we were able to learn a lot about Verona in an entertaining way❤️ - Francesco (Frenk !) is the perfect guide! He is very flexible, we had booked the day before another tour, the guides have coordinated with each other, put together an individual tour and so we had with Frenk! the perfect complement. Besides his versatile knowledge he is very entertaining, we laughed a lot! On the way he pointed out to us very many hidden details, away from the guidebooks. In a prepared folder he showed us in between pictures from the past of the city, so that we were also allowed to travel into the past. Even after the tour, he sent us information about what else we can do in Verona, because the weather changed and we were looking for indoor alternatives. We can highly recommend him and we are happy about this encounter! Beatrice and Klaus

Family in Verona - Maria Pia was absolutely fantastic! We are a family of four, 2 teen boys, and she made our Verona tour so interesting, even for the teens! She asked what we were most interested in & if we wanted more stories, history, architecture, etc. She was so knowledgeable, friendly and animated. Maria is a master storyteller and is so animated, you can’t help but get drawn in!! Highly recommended. We couldn’t imagine a better experience. Thank you, Thank you Maria!!

Local Guide Maria Pia is best! - The local guide assigned to us - Ms Maria Pia was simply wonderful. She went out of her way to show us the most within the limited amount of time that we had in Verona. Her love for her city is clearly evident through her sharing of detailed information and stories. Her bubbly character and cheerfulness warmed our hearts.

Highly recommend this tour! - Francesco was an amazing guide with extensive knowledge of Verona and the settlement of Italy. It was clear Francesco was very passionate about Verona and its history! We had a lovely tour of the Arena, followed by a truly off-the-beaten-path tour of many important areas of Verona. We had a great time and really enjoyed seeing/hearing about areas where not as many tourists tread.

Best afternoon I could have wished for in verona! - Strolling through the unfamiliar streets of Verona, in the heat of Italian summer, I'd spotted Fransisco by the Madonna Fountain, as we had agreed. With his smile from ear to ear and a friendly welcome, I knew this tour was going to be amazing. And I've couldn't be more right! Francisco is frienly, informative, and easy to listen to. The entire day was full of bright lights, story telling, and interesting facts.The Verona Arena is a extraordinary place to visit. But the things I will never forget, were the local places around the Arena, which I would never visit on my own.. Highly recommended tour & tour guide!
