1st Class Tour with Anna - A thoroughly interesting and entertaining tour with Anna. We took an easy train ride from Rome at 08.00hrs down to Cassino where we arrived at 09.52 where Anna met us and 5 other people. She was easy to find and we set off on time. If you really want to understand a particular battle then of course you need to visit the ground. Anna explained the four battles for Monte Cassino with consulate ease making it interesting for enthusiasts and novices alike. Her answers to questions were inciteful and in depth. Clearly no script here. Stops were at just below International Ridge, the bridge over the Rapido at St. Antonio, the Commonwealth War Cemetery and of course the Abbey of Monte Cassino itself. We were dropped off in good time for the return train to Rome.

An incredible tour for a solo traveler - I just completed my tour as I write this. Anna was a wonderful guide and I was very pleased with the experience. I joined the tour solo and she was wonderful to talk to as we traveled between the many interesting locations. She did a great job explaining the history and answering my questions. I hope to come back with friends and family to see this wonderful place again!

Worth every penny - One of the highlights of our visit to the area. Anna was hospitable, welcoming and exceptionally knowledgable. She instantly gelled the group and ensured that all the party enjoyed the tour. The fee for the tour was money exceptionally well spent!

Monte Cassino tour with Anna Priori - Wonderful Monte Cassino Battlefield Tour with Anna. Everything was perfect and the whole family from battlefield and WW2 interested Dad to more interested Abbey visiting Mum, Granny and kids were engaged from start to finish Very poignant to see where’ so many fought and died during the four battles of Cassino So moving to visit the Commonwealth cemetery and where the 36th Texans suffered trying to cross the Rapido Anna is so engaging and interesting and explained military and religious details with such clarity the whole family wished we had all day to hear her stories. Perfect highlight of our trip to Italy Hope to come back again one day

Five star tour - Anna met us on time at the train station in Cassino. Her knowledge of the battle and the surrounding area was incredible. When she found out that my father was a Polish soldier who fought there, she made sure to point out the Polish Cemetery to us. She dropped my husband and I off at the Polish Cemetery at the end of the tour (we knew that this was not included in the tour), and she made sure that we knew what time a bus would return us to the train station in Cassino. We would recommend this tour 100%. Anna was amazing! Thank you

Monte Cassino Battlefields Tour with Anna Priora - Anna was incredibly knowledgeable and we learned such a lot. The tour was run very efficiently with attention to the individuals in the group. Her friendly and humourous nature was engaging. Anna even went out of her way after the tour to help us with a specific request. We would highly recommend her, but book early.
