I had a day to spend in Genoa I had no idea it was such an interesting city. Fulvio was very informative and showed us things that I would never have found on my own. I am glad we this tour instead of just walking around
Gianfranco was a great guide. He took us to the keys sights and had a wonderful background in the history and culture of his city. He made it really fun and personal.
This is an excellent walking tour. Pace easy. Fantastic information every step of the way. Highlight is view from top of Castella? lift.
Very nice tour. The meeting place is hard to find: in a building with a small sign. On the stairs of the building would be more convenient! Nice info, a bit more depth would be good, e.g., how the Genoese used to live in this city. Nice that we could see some of the palazzos and the beautiful frescoes! Overall nice to see the city like this. Ending at the harbor front was fun.
Good fast paced tour. Seeing some beautiful out of the way places. Enjoyed John Franco as our group guide.
Guide never showed up at the meeting spot, we waited almost 45 minutes. We have requested a refund and haven’t heard back yet, hoping to hear
Fulvio was a very good guide. Lots of local knowledge. Personable. Definitely recommend him.
Andrea was congenial, excellent English, and very knowledgeable about relevant history. I’d do another tour with him.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and was careful to ask us which things we were keen to see. His English was very good and described things in a very engaging manner.
The tour with Gianfranco was really interesting. We learned some things about Genoa without tiring or getting bored. We were also fortunate to be alone, so the dialogue was possible and enjoyable. Highly recommended
