Best walking tour in Verona - Francesco was a superb guide. He combined a zest for a life with extensive knowledge of the history, art, architecture, and culture of Verona. His enthusiasm and love for his city was infectious. We learned so much and enjoyed his company tremendously. Do not miss a tour with Francesco.

An enthusiastic visit to the city of love. - Francesco was the perfect person to welcome us to Verona and guided us through out the city so enthusiastic. He perfectly adjusted the tour to our needs and preferences but he didn’t missed to point out some real important things to himself, that he wanted us to know. It felt like walking Verona with a friend. And we really enjoyed every minute with him.

Excellent tour of beautiful Verona - This was an excellent tour. One of the best we’ve done in Italy. Francesco is a high school English teacher and loves the history or his city. The tour was interesting, lively and he took his cues from us with regards to pace and timing. Loved everything about it.
