Fantastic Informative Tour - What is not to like walking through the town of Cortona? It is a place steeped in history with beautiful surroundings. Our tour guide Catia was excellent. She was extremely knowledgeable of the history of the area and her personable approach, enthusiasm and sense of humour made it easy to interact to convey this information. We learned a lot about Cortona during our tour. The one on one personal aspect of the tour was also greatly appreciated . Highly recommended.

Excellent tour of Cortona - Catia was an amazing tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and informative. I enjoyed the way she informed me which architecture was from the estrucan, medieval, or renaissance times. She was especially informative regarding the Saints who formed the various churches in Cortona.

Private tour of Cortona - Debora was an excellent guide! Very personable, very knowledgeable and interesting. Debora was able to recommend specific shops and local family run traditional restaurants. We visited places we would have missed had we not done the tour with her. She also pointed out interesting architectural elements such as renaissance facades covering medieval structures. I would highly recommended.

Cortona walking tour - Our guide was Debora, who was warm, bright and engaging with a good command of English. She brought Cortona to life and pointed out many details we would have missed had we been on our own. My favourite moment came when Debora led us down an unprepossessing side street and showed us three examples of Cortona's architectural history - medieval, Renaissance and modern, all in the same street. It was stunning. Highly recommended, both the tour and our guide.
