My tour guide was Mehran. An amazing vivid storyteller! He brought to life the best landmarks the city has to offer, including Bergamo’s best gelato place in town. If you wonder what that place is, you will have to book a trip and ask him. Thank you Mehran!

Mehran was a very knowledgeable guide and a very pleasant person on top of it. He brought us to a fantastic viewpoint we wouldn’t have found on our own and he gave us lots of inside information about the city in general and its history. To be recommended!
