    Top Shelf Experience

    "Margherita was an absolute joy to spend the day with. A local with intimate knowledge and history of Cinque Terre. She was professional, personable, helpful and provided great communication before the tour. I have used tour guides in many countries and have never experienced anyone better."

    "As you know our guide was Elizabeth Ferro. She waited for us outside the terminal and we walked to the train station. Elizabeth was great with detailed explanations of the 3 villages and the reasons for where they were. Elizabeth was kind and patient with each of us. We had the best guide we could have dreamed of."

    Margherita is awesome

    "Margherita was a wealth of information on La Spezia and the coastal villages. Her years of experience and her passion for the country and agriculture are very apparent. Margherita was an excellent guide and I highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed. "

    Wonderful experience with the best guide!

    "My husband and I did an 11 day Mediterranean cruise, and this tour was the highlight of the entire trip! Not only did we love the absolute charm of Cinque Terre, but Valeria was so knowledgeable and very kind. She was easy talk to, and took us all of the local spots to try the best focaccia, bruschetta, cheeses, wine, and gelato. We would have never known to go these places, without her. It was an absolutely perfect day, and worth every penny!"

    Lovely day in Cinque Terre!

    "We had a wonderful day in Cinque Terre. Valeria was very warm, welcoming, enthusiastic and passionate about Cinque Terre and La Spezia. With that same spirit she showed us around, let us taste good food, told us stories about various places we visited and matched the whole experience to our interests and preferences we discussed in advance. Even when we had a slight change of plans last moment which required some flexibility regarding logistics and timing, she is the one who made sure it would be the best experience. And it was! I can recommend making a booking with her! "

    The Best Tour We've Ever Done

    "We travel often and do private/semi-private tours exclusively and sometimes it feels like we've seen them all in terms of the different styles of guides. Maggie was absolutely incredible and is hands down the best tour guide we've ever had. She was full of insights about the area that only true locals would know, she did a great job of pacing things, and she was a delight to tour with. If we could bring Maggie along to be our guide everywhere we travel, we absolutely would! Thank you so much for the fantastic tour Maggie...you are appreciated! -Evan and MacKenzie"
