Great day, learning about traditional food in Umbria - Our guide, Richard, was outstanding. He clearly communicated the place and time for pick up, so we did not have any delays in starting our tour. He was friendly, very nice, and knowledgeable about Umbria food and beverage. We were pleasantly surprised that Richard also showed us several interesting historical landmarks and provided us with Perugia map for further exploration of the area. We stopped in several cafes and restaurants, trying different dishes (delicious!), beer, and wine. We truly covered “a lot of territory” for 3 hours. We highly recommend this tour for anyone, visiting Perugia.

Beautiful Perugia- great tour! - We had a wonderful few hours in Perugia doing the tour with Richard. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the area is excellent. We learnt lots about local history and culture while wandering the streets, then had a fabulous lunch, sampling cheeses, cold cuts, a delicious truffle pasta and finishing with gelato. He was a great guide and we thoroughly recommend this tour if you want to deepen your experience of this beautiful city!

Fantastic - Sue was fantastic! We had such a great time with her, and learning about Perugia! Being a local she knows the area very well and was a wealth of information. Our son loved her and wants to visit her again on our next trip to Umbria.

Great overview of town with treats along the way - Nice walking tour of Perugia. You get an overview of the city with its history mixed in. Along the way, there are different food stops that all have a little local story. Richard, the guide, had made Perugia his home and he clearly loves his new town. The warmth and humor he shares with his stories make you want to come back and visit Perugia.
