A journey through history and culture - We made the trip with Luigi's Bee, friendly Guide, helpful, prepared and very nice. He guided us along the old city telling wonders and anecdotes unknown to us and also saw part of the new city. Truly a fantastic and unforgettable experience, a warm thank you to our wonderful Guide wishing him all the best possible

Loved this tour - Ty we loved this tour! It gave us a good introduction to Taranto. Our tour guide was outstanding and I’m so sorry that I don’t know her name. We learned about the history and culture of this historical Seaport town. The overview was very helpful..

A different way to see Taranto. - You are taken on an interesting historical, and site seeing tour of Taranto much quicker that if you tried to cover the points of interest on foot by yourself. The tour is informative and the guide knowledgeable. However, the Ape Calessino we travelled in was in need of maintenance, seat belts needed attention. But its size ment you could easily weave in and out of the busy Taranto traffic! The company tended to leave it last minute to inform us of our booked time and we did not receive our pre booked arrival time, as I'd switched my phone to flightmode.

A different way to site see Taranto. - You are taken on an interesting tour of Taranto, visiting a mixture of historical and site seeing venues. The ageing Ape Calessino we toured in was in need of a little maintenance, seat belts were not that brilliant, but managed to weave itself in and out of the heavy traffic that clogged the streets on that particular day. Only criticism was that the company left it too late in informing me of my booking time, I'd switched to flightmode on my phone and didn't receive the allotted arrival time until I switched flightmode off when I returned to the UK! They should sent the message much sooner than on the day of the trip.
