Giorgio Ghidotti was an unbelievable guide. He gave us details about what we were seeing that I doubt would be found in any guidebook. He seemed to sincerely care that we were having a good time and that we were enjoying ourselves. I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to know the real Bergamo.

Bergamo is certainly worth a visit. We had a great time and the old town is beautiful. Giorgio is a very knowledgable guide. A very good day.

I can't say enough about Giorgio. He is a kind man blessed with a wealth of knowledge about Bergamo. This was listed as a three-hour tour with a meeting point in Bergamo. Instead he offered to pick us up in Milano and drive us back and we were with him for seven hours!! He even picked up lunch!! Giorgio has a true enthusiasm for his work and seems to just enjoy showing people around. Take any tour you can with him!

Très jolie ville avec une âme qui est son centre historique, ses ruelles tortueuses, pentues parfois, mais très accessible malgré la hauteur grâce au funiculaire, aux bus ou taxis. En bas, la ville moderne a aussi un charme avec plusieurs bâtiments officiels ou banques avec une belle architecture.

Annelize_P

Très gentil guide. Plein de petits détails. On avait toutefois de la peine à trouver un fil conducteur dans ses explications.

Bernardo_A

Muy buena vista, muy amena e instructiva. Nuestro guía inmejorable. Actividad totalmente recomendable.
