Very practical and easy guide. It was very useful for our travel profile because it took us to the main places in Lucca without us knowing anything about the city before starting to explore with the app. I recommend it!!

I really enjoyed the self-tour, you can do it all by yourself with real-time map interaction + the explanations were nice to hear! Good value for money!

Valencia was an excellent guide and foodie companion Such a great choice of food to sample A fabulous few hours in a great city

It's really worth it!! The tour with the guide Andrea was very pleasant and the lunch at the winery was delicious

Alessandra was amazing! Take this tour. You will not be disappointed.
