SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO VISIT. - IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL TRIP. WE HAD AN OUTSTNDING GUIDE PAOLO READY TO HELP US ALL THE TIME WITH A COMPLETE KNOWLEDGE OF THE HISTORY OF THE PLACES WE VISITED. I NEVER THOUGHT THAT THESE VILLAGES WOULD BE SO NICE. WE HAD A WONDERFUL LUNCH WITH A BEAUTIFUL LAKE FULL OF DUCKS.

Just what we wish all of our tours were like. - Pedro was on time, very personable throughout the day, and knew the subject matter. But he didn't fill the time with canned speeches Instead, he seemed to naturally tailor his narrative to my interests. It was relaxed and comfortable all day. He didn't rush me through places like so many guides do. He seemed to sense things I had a special interest in and delve into them more. The pace was so perfect I didn't notice it -- not slow, not fast. But we covered all the sites. I couldn't have asked for a more pleasant, informative day.

Absolutely Awesome. - Fred was so friendly and timed everything perfectly. We had a great time learning about each of the cities. It’s a super convenient and time efficient way to see so so much in a day. Each one being different from the next, all three places were really nice and we felt like we had enough time at each. Totally recommend this tour and if you can request Fred go for it!

A medieval roller coaster ride - Our guide was a good person with some relevant historical information. This was overshadowed by the uncomfortably small and filthy car she rented for this 10 hour trip. She was also a very poor driver, so much that Dramamine and a blind fold would have been helpful.
