“Our guide was great and his degree in arts and literature was amazing as his attention to accuracy was fabulous. He was able to give not only the historical information but the political and financial impacts during the centuries. We had time for a drink along the way which was great due to the heat. Juliette balcony was towards tje end however full of tourist. The balcony is for tourist as the balcony is all wrong. Our tour could talk through all the fresco paintings and it was incredible. They tell a story or a picture of values and morals.”

“nette Stadtführerin. Allerdings wurde uns der falsche Treffpunkt durch den Anbieter mitgeteilt. Erst durch mehrmaliges Telefonieren mit dem Orga-Team konnten wir zu einer bestehenden Stadtführung dazu stoßen. Dadurch ging uns eine halbe Stunde verloren, eine Entschädigung dafür wurde uns nicht angeboten.”
