A guided walking tour with little care! - Giosès was a very kind, attentive, patient, and very considerate guide. We didn’t feel the time pass in his company!

Do Not Miss Out on This!!! - This is the first time we have done a private walking tour and WOW, what a great experience from start to finish. Lavinia was our guide and she was just fantastic. She reached out to us shortly after our booking to confirm the time and date and gave us an opportunity to personalize our tour base on what we had already researched. We only had a request or two and left the rest to her. She met us at our hotel and was five minutes early which I certainly appreciate. We confirmed our game plan and off we went.
Lavinia was very knowledgeable of the sites on our tour and shared insider / local information with us. Not just about what we were seeing but also things we could experience during our stay in Palermo. She spoke excellent English (we are Americans) and knew the city as she navigated the markets and sites. She was genuinely interested in us and what we did and thought and so very attentive. I had mentioned my wife worked in a university library in the Staters and later on in our tour, she asked if we would be interested in taking a short detour to see an old book store that she thought Ann would be interested in.... and yes, it was a welcomed detour. This coupled with a real kinship made the atmosphere relaxed, fun and real.
Our three hour walk with Lavinia was well worth the cost which I thought was nominal for the experiences we gained. We also appreciate that having a small / private tour gives you the freedom of action to make changes on the fly and linger or speed up as needed.
Our experience with this Custom Walking Tour and Lavinia made out trip more awesome than we could have imagined. I strongly recommend using this platform to coordinate a private walking tour, you will not regret it.

Excellent guide - Martina picked us up on time from our hotel. I had sent Martina a list of all the places we wanted to see. In the 3 hours we were able to see everything except one place which was at least a 1 hour visit which we did by ourselves. Martina was very informative, explained everything in detail and gave us time to go into different sights to spend time to look around. She was fun, laughed at our jokes. and you could see. she. loved her job.
We would definitely use her again. if we visited again and highly recommend her to all future travelers.
