Great tour and afternoon with Thomas
"Thomas is a born and raised Genoan who loves his city and his tour exemplifies that affection and extensive knowledge of its history. We had a delightful walk around the interesting nooks and crannies of the city as well a stop for two "must eats" of Genoa. Thomas followed up with a list of 'not too miss' museums and restaurants for us. "

Great walking tour with Thomas
"I wanted to drop a note and a thank you to Thomas, an excellent tour guide in the city of Genoa. We walked through the city and Thomas shared history, culture and his own personal insights.

An Amazing Local Experience with Nefset
"Nefset orchestrated a beautiful boat journey along the Portofino and Camogli Italian coast for my wife and I. We stopped along the way to enjoy the beach and most importantly the very best of local cuisine. It was a first class experience that exceeded our expectations. Her extra travel assistance and special photographs captured will last us a lifetime. Nefset is the Best! 😁"
