Excellent tour of the Polish Battlefields - Anna was an amazing and very knowledgable on everything Cassino. The tailored tour catered for both someone with a keen interest in and someone with minimal knowledge the war, and Anna took the time to answer all of our questions as well as asking some of here owm, making the whole experience feel very personal. If you are looking for a tour of Cassino, then look no further than Anna!

Great tour! - Anna Priora is a brilliant tour guide. She provided a tremendous amount of background to the actual battle and highlighted various sites which allowed a visual perspective of the battlegrounds which added to the overall experience.. The tour material, as presented by Anna, was never boring and her continuing commentary was very informative. Finally, Anna's pleasant demeanor and sense of humor greatly enhanced the overall experience. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in the Battle of Montecasino.

Great tour - Ana was an excellent Tour guide! She picked us up right on time and delivered us back to the train station on time. Travel by train from Rome was easy and tool 1:45 - 2 hours. One thing to note is that Cassino is unlike other European battlefield sites that I have been to in that there are not museums and battlefield relics (e.g., bunkers, artillery, tanks, etc) around the town of Cassino. So, this is more of tour that shows the overall view of where the battle took place. The view from the monestary is beautiful....

Anna’s Monte Cassino Battlefield Tour - Anna was an excellent guide with a wealth of knowledge of the Monte Cassino Battlefield. This was the first guided battlefield tour I had been on and the experience was well worth it. Weeks later I am repeating the very moving anecdotes that Anna had told me during the tour.

Great Tour of Monte Cassino and the Liri Valley - Anna organized a customized tour for my wife and I, focusing on exactly what we wanted to see. She has excellent knowledge of the history of the battles and we spent a very enjoyable day with her. We visited the Polish Cemetery, the Domek Doktora, Hill 593, Masseria Albaneta, the Bialecki Sherman Monument, and the Abbey itself. We enjoyed lunch with her in town and then in the afternoon visited the Commonwealth Cemetery and Canadian sites on the Hitler line. The day was much more informative and way easier to do than if we had just gone on our own. It was very reasonably priced. Anna had everything organized and all we had to do was wait for her to pick us up at our hotel. Thank you very much Anna for a fabulous day and I hope we may be able to do another tour with you one day.

A brilliant trip & tour with Anna - Anna was fantastic , so knowledgeable & friendly . We were on the tour with 2 NZ guys who were also great company . Everything Anna said either confirmed what my father told me or answered queries I’d had for many years . What brave boys they all were & we should never forget throughout the generations what they did for us all . I’d love to return in the future with my children & would without doubt want Anna as our tour guide Thanks so much Andy & Angie
