Ilaria was a knowledgable and interesting guide. She did a great job communicating details of the historical venue. NOTE: This tour is not for someone who cannot handle steps! The views from the Charterhouse were stunning. We found the story of the place fascinating. Our descent back into the city was also great. Just be sure you are ready to walk!

Insieme ad Ilaria ho avuto oggi il piacere di riprendere gli appuntamenti culturali dopo questo lungo periodo buio di pandemia. Lei come al solito semplice, disponibile ma sopratutto sempre ricca di sapere, una profonda conoscenza del mondo archeologico che trasmette in maniera puntuale e professionale sapendo stuzzicare curiosità ed interesse.
