Cristina was a very knowledgeable and engaging guide. Her English was fantastic and her passion for the city was infectious! She also adapted the tour to meet the needs of my parents and was kept the tour interesting for our 14-yr old son.

Una guida estremamente preparata e simpatica ci ha guidati alla scoperta della Pontificia Basilica di Sant’Antonio (e lo scrivo così perché ce lo ha spiegato Cristina) e di altri luoghi iconici del centro città di Padova. Alla fine delle due ore ci è dispiaciuto molto separarci da lei e dalla sua conoscenza della città. Grazie davvero.

Bella esperienza.
La guida Cristina, simpatica e disponibile ha reso il tour molto piacevole!
Puntuale nell' orario ed affabile nella presentazione ci ha accompagnato nel centro storico di Padova mostrandoci i principali luoghi storici e di culto con spiegazioni semplici ed interessanti arricchendole di simpatici aneddoti.

Abbiamo visitato il centro con la guida Cristina. 2 adulti e 2 ragazzi di 12 e 14 anni. Cristina è stata una risorsa meravigliosa. Ci ha introdotto alla città con riferimenti storici, aneddoti e consigli tutti interessanti e utilissimi. Abbiamo apprezzato moltissimo la sua guida, la sua professionalità e la sua simpatia.
Response from Host, Jan 2023
Grazie! E' stato un vero piacere trascorrere del tempo insieme esplorando la mia città.
Auguro a lei ed alla sua bella famiglia un sereno 2023 ricco di piacevoli novità e di tanti viaggi.
A presto, spero
