Mauro is a gem of a person and planned a fabulous ride around Como, Lugano and the hills . He took care of all the arrangements , was a fabulous host and a terrific guide . Rode the Multistrada 950 - bike was excellent condition and everything was taken care of. My only regret is I had so little time . Soon again if fortune favours me . Thanks Mauro - it was a pleasure meeting you and thanks to your superb riding skills I felt confident and safe following you along the twists and turns of the road.

I booked this tour for me and my husband on a whim just to give us something to do for the weekend...and it was an excellent decision! Our guide Cristina responded to us within an hour to inquire about our food preferences and to also ensure that we didn’t have any allergies which we found to be very helpful and thoughtful. Once we met up at the designated time, she was very informative about each place we went to and she showed us some different restaurants that we may not have ventured into had we visited Verona on our own. At each place, she asked us if we wanted photos and let us take our time to marvel at everything after explaining the history behind it. We even got to see the arena which was sooo beautiful in person. If you want a tour guide that is going to show you more than just the typical tourists routes, book with Cristina. She made our experience worthwhile.
