Very informative. Delivered in a professional and friendly manner. Very relaxed atmosphere throughout the tour and we could see everything at our own pace. Guide happy to make diversions to see various sights around the area. Our ticket said pickup was included but it seems this is not typical of this tour. The company kindly honoured it and arranged transfers. Thank you.

Esperienza simpatica aiutata dalla disponibile professionalità della guida. Sinceramente in relazione al prezzo pagato mi aspettavo decisamente di più. €. 196 per 4 persone sono un costo decisamente abnorme per un giretto a piedi di 3 ore e qualche stuzzichino che complessivamente non fa un solo apericena disponibile x 10 €. in un qualsiasi locale del centro di Milano (e non ditemi che Catania è più cara). Se dovessi rifarlo preferirei pagare le 3 ore alla guida e poi con quanto mi rimane avrei la possibilità di prendere è per me e gli altri miei familiari stuzzichini in abbondanza e forse mi avanzerebbe ancora qualcosa. Non lo consiglierei.
