Somewhat disappointing tour!

Pauline_F, Jun 2026

Guide was good, very pleasant lady, local and knowledgeable; however food was limited to one pastry (at beginning of tour!), then three slivers of Parmesan cheese, and finally a glass of wine with 4 types of meat and a cube of Parmesan cheese.

Response from Host, Jun 2026
