Walking tour of Trieste - Excellent tour with a very knowledgeable guide. Gioia gave us a very informative and interesting tour. We covered a lot in 3 hours. We highly recommend this walking tour, especially with Gioia. However, at least 3 hours should be booked, but we recommend more.

Excellent experience - We walked with Gioia and we had a superb experience. Gioia has shown to be a very knowledgable guide and a very emphatic person. We planned a two hour tour but walked together much longer and couldn’t stop talking. Gioia also pointed us towards a nice restaurant and in the evening our family has enjoyed a really good dinner there. In short: we can recommend to do this walking tour, really enjoyable 😊👍

You can't get to know a city better! - An absolute recommendation! Gioia, the tour guide, is very competent and with his heart in the matter. It charmingly introduces you to the city of Trieste, gives recommendations for further excursions and tips on local specialties. I enjoyed every minute and learned a lot about Trieste and the region.

Great overview of Trieste! - Don't miss a walking tour with Goia. She was wonderful and just a fount of knowledge regarding the history, architecture and food of Trieste. She recommended a restaurant that was so good that we went there two nights in a row! I highly recommend this tour. She will show you anything you wish to see and will adjust the tour to your wishes. Excellent!

The Best of Trieste’s Sights and Flavors - Our guide, Gioia, was marvelous. I requested her based on reviews I had read. She did not disappoint! Gioia was fluent in English and communicated all information with precision. She was very knowledgeable and entertaining. She set a comfortable pace and always took our comfort into consideration. (Trieste is hilly!) Gioia took us to have lunch in a spot that served typical local fare. Without her we would never have known to order the plum gnocchi or the goulash! What a treat! Our day in Trieste will be memorable not only for the sights we saw and the history we learned, but also for a lovely afternoon with a delightful lady. Thank you, Gioia!

Amazing Trieste tour with Gioia - Our guide Gioia was amazing and gave us an excellent 2 hour tour of Trieste. Her knowledge of the history and culture of the city was incredible and she conveyed it in excellent English. We learned about the early Roman era as well as insights into current city culture. We also visited several beautiful churches and got the inside scoop on the good restaurants and more. Totally made our 1 day in Trieste special and would heartily recommend her to anyone.

A great experience - Gioai was excellent she was a proud and passionate woman of Trieste. Her explanation of the history, architecture, religions, people and food was superb. Very informative and very humoured also. I would thoroughly recommend this tour. She also took us to a true locals restaurant, then translated for us for our lunch of traditional well priced food off the typical tourist traps.

Recommended - This was a solo daytrip. Everything went well. Superb guide. All of her recommendations were spot on. Recommended. Two caveats: humidity and walking/hiking. Humidity does not bother me, but I could see it being a limiting factor to some. Pick the right time of the year to visit. I enjoy walking/hiking, and I came prepared. I recommend wearing appropriate sneakers and drinking plenty of water.

Customer service should be #1 - Our guide ignored some of our requests such as meeting us near our cruise ship and taking us to jewelry stores. He seemed very young and inexperienced.
