Our Michelin Star extravaganza!

I loved this small and beautiful town. Isabela was very nice and friendly. The Cathedral was gorgeous. The market was very interesting and the food they offered to eat there was pretty good! We also loved having dinner with 3 Michelin stars Chef Massimo Botura. It was the highlight of the evening!

Isabella - the best guide in Modena

Isabella is the perfect guide. She knows her city and its history extremely well. She also is very patient. She listened carefully to our questions and answered them clearly and thoughtfully. We learned a great deal from Isabella and thank her for a wonderful experience.

Operator response

Do not bring a car and a dried out tour

We did the Modena tour. Personally I didn’t enjoy this. First a whole episode about the parking in the city of Modena and fines then whole thing about the old church. It give my a dried out feel. No thanks.

Operator response

Good morning Dear customer, you took a tour with us with our guide of the city. Giving us 2 stars just because you couldn't find parking in Modena is not our problem. We do not offer free parking. If you had asked us we would have shown you where to park. We have nothing to do with parking!!!! Write a review to the municipality of Modena not to us!! How incorrect to write this!! Please change your review
