Maria Pia brought Veronas history to life . Perfect Tour. - Maria Pia was the most wonderful guide for a 3 hour tour of Verona finishing with Juliet’s house and balcony. Her knowledge of the subject was fantastic and she delivers her stories with such character and love. It was very hot but Maria made sure we had plenty of shady diversions to cool down plus water stops. I would 100% recommend Maria Pia …. You won’t be disappointed.

Verona Walking Tour - We had an amazing time on this tour, in large part to our fabulous tour guide, Maria Pia. Her bubbly energy was infectious and we learned a great deal about Verona through her magnificent story telling. It was an extremely hot day in Verona but Maira Pia got all of us water and tried to get us to the shade as much as possible. We thoroughly enjoyed this experience and would highly recommend!

What an amazing experience full of fun facts - This tour was amazing. There was a little bit of moving around with changing our time due to numbers being too high on the tour but I am so glad I agreed to change to a later time as it was just me and my fiancé with an amazing tour guide, Francesco which became like our own private little tour of Verona. Even with just the two of us booked at that time Francesco still went ahead with everything and even threw in a few detours with extra facts and history of Verona. All in all we have a fantastic time and would highly recommend. Francesco was funny, very friendly and very knowledgeable of Verona.
