Francesca, our guide, took us to discover the wonders and secrets of old Bari. Very prepared and very witty, we spent an oasis and a half without realizing it. Very positive experience, it allowed us to appreciate this city and its inhabitants even more.

La visita alla città vecchia è stata completa ed interessante. La nostra guida Francesca si è mostrata molto preparata e disponibile. Ha alternato informazioni di carattere storico a notizie più di "costume" che hanno reso la passeggiata molto piacevole.

Fabio, archeologo laureato nonché nostra guida, ci ha fatto scoprire Bari dalle origini arcaiche fino al ‘900, facendoci comprendere la storia della città e del suo popolo attraverso un tour interessante e ricco di aneddoti. L’agenzia mi ha anche aiutato a trovare una visita last minute in un’altra città, con professionalità e cortesia.
