"The rain could not dampen our informative, personal and breath-taking walking tour with Maria. Perfect guide to this charming, historical town. I highly recommend Maria."
"While some sights were new to us others we already knew about such as the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Davide with his knowledge and travel experience made the entire time rich and alive for us. We’ve had many guides and private tours over time. Davide is among the very best. "
"We spent a couple hours with Sara yesterday getting an overview of Pisa, spending more time focused on the areas outside the Field of Miracles. While that tourist Mecca is gorgeous and interesting, we also enjoyed learning about everyday life of locals in Pisa. Sara is a great spokesperson for her city and her love for it shines through all of her stories. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Sara a bit and spending time in her lovely city. "
"We spent about 3 hours today with Maria getting to know Lucca. She was friendly, funny and detailed in her explanations of the history of this storied city. We enjoyed spending time with her and highly recommend this tour and, more importantly, this guide if you find yourself in Lucca or the surrounding area. She is wonderful!"
"We LOVE Sara! What do you do with teenagers in Pisa besides eating lots of pizza? You ask Sara to explain all about her city! The history, the drama, the secrets that can be found on and in the old buildings and our favourite 🤩 the food. Local biscuits, cecina, gelato. We’re sold on all of them and no complaints from the teenagers either 😉"
"Maria was flexible, friendly and very knowledgeable. Being a native of Lucca really added to the experience and stories she had. We highly recommend her. "

"Sara knew so many interesting Lucca tidbits, as well as insights about Lucca citizens. She clearly is a big fan of the entire area. We learned a lot and could probably have toured with her more.
Thank you"
"Maria Lucrezia was a wonderful and fun guide on our first full day in Lucca. She shared so many interesting stories of the city’s art, architecture and ancient history - and the tastings !! She made perfect selections. All the proprietors we met were as welcoming as she was. It was a perfect day. Highly recommended. Grazie Mille, Maria Lucrezia!"
"Right from the beginning, Emma introduced us to the charm of the locals in Pisa. We tasted different wines, cheeses, drinks and other foods along the way while learning the history of Pisa. We travelled off the beaten path and were able to see the true beauty of this Tuscany city. "
"We had a wonderful time in Italy, but without a doubt, one of the highlights of our trip was the tour with Emma. Her food tour was not only steeped with Italian history and lessons in the language, but also on the local culture. Emma went above + beyond to personalize the experience based on our interests and preferences. It was a thoughtful tour through the citys culinary “landscape”, with a perfect balance of sweet + savory, w/ wine tasting, and visits to hidden gems we never would have found on our own. Yay!
Emma herself was a delight— she was outgoing, friendly, and effortlessly funny. She exudes a charm that is distinctly Italian, blending warmth + wit in a way that made us feel immediately at ease. Her humor was infectious, and her passion for sharing the local food and culture left us wanting more. It wasn’t just a tour; it felt like we were exploring with a friend; really!"
