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 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.
Thanks for the wonderful words! Isabella will be delighted to read them!
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.
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
The Cathedral of Modeno was beautiful and the stories of the city and the building were terrific....
Thank you
Caterina is an enthusiastic guide to the history and culture of Modena and the surrounding area. This includes the food culture and the agriculture. She took time to answer our many questions and yet managed to keep the tour on track for time.
Thank you
Caterina was a fabulous guide: outgoing, knowledgeable, responsive to our questions and needs. She was what we needed on a rainy but thoroughly enchanting day in Modena!!
Thankyou very much! Glad you enjoyed
