      Good

      Too many questions on this survey. I already gave it top rating! Let me submit and get on with my life.

      Everyone who comes to L'Aquila needs to take this tour. It is a must. Thank you for such a great experience.

      Marino_A, May 2024
      Learning of the history of L'Aquila was such an great experience especially because my parents came from this area. Our tour guide was exceptional. She was informative and very passionate about the history here. A great experience all around.

      Is there a bus???

      Rosemary_B, Sep 2023
      We were booked for a 10am train trip. We drove 1 1/2 hours to get there. When we arrived we could not find a park, consequently we were late and missed the bus. The lady in the office was extremely rude. She said she tried to call, there is no missed calls on my phone. She could put two of the group on the next bus. We sat in the piazza to have coffee and the bus did not arrive, Is there actually a bus? No refund is given!

      Response from Host, Sep 2023

      That is TOTALLY fake. We gave you a total refund despite you were late, we tried to call you starting form 10.10 till 10.20 with no answer (we have screenshots of our calls, let's see who is right...). We have scheduled departing times that we MUST respect for our clients, since there were other people waiting for your arrival that paid the ticket as you did but they were in time! However, dear mrs. Rosemary, the client must be in time for the departure, if there's any problem you could have called the customer service telling that you were late, but you didn't. Sometimes admitting guilt is a virtue, arrogance has no chance for us. That's why, despite all your absurd behaviour, we gave you TOTAL REFUND. Just another thing: THERE IS FOR SURE THE BUS, departing (in time) everyday, 365 days per year. Next time you'll be in time, we'll be glad to give you our best services, like we do every tour, every day. Andrea - Director

      Excellent adventure

      Journey to the historic L'Aquila

      Daniele_M, Oct 2025
      We were accompanied by a guide, very prepared, kind and nice. Two hours spent in the blink of an eye by the interest she herself created in telling the story of the Eagle. Not to be missed. I apologize but I can't remember the name of the girl I thank.

      Giorgia_C, Jul 2025
      Mariangela delighted us with her experienced and exciting guide. It was a fabulous excursion, enriched by folk tales and legends. Strong point: the electric shuttle with access to pedestrian areas and inaccessible places. Two hours fly! Highly recommended.

      It is worth it

      Cinzia_Z, Jul 2025
      The guide was very prepared, nice and helpful. Highly recommended for those who do not want to walk and want to have an experience with a small group of people and have a guide who during the journey between one stage and another tells you the story from the foundation onwards.

      Gradevolissima esperienza

      MARCO_R, Oct 2024
      Buongiorno, piacevolissima esperienza in compagnia di un tutor preparato (Andrea), disponibile e soprattutto innamorato della sua città. Unica pecca il poco tempo a disposizione per apprezzare adeguatamente tutte le bellezze della città. Peccato non avere a disposizione un pacchetto extra large di questo tour tipo 3 ore. Marco Rionda
