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.

Would Recommend - 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.

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.
