Margherita was a pleasure to spend the day with. She was really helpful with changes to our booking, getting train tickets and had ready answers to all our questions. We visited three of the villages and she recommended a great restaurant for lunch right on the edge of the water. If you're looking for a guide while touring Cinque Terre, I'd thoroughly recommend her!Super Helpful, Knowledgeable & Friendly

We travel often and do private/semi-private tours exclusively and sometimes it feels like we've seen them all in terms of the different styles of guides. Maggie was absolutely incredible and is hands down the best tour guide we've ever had. She was full of insights about the area that only true locals would know, she did a great job of pacing things, and she was a delight to tour with. If we could bring Maggie along to be our guide everywhere we travel, we absolutely would! Thank you so much for the fantastic tour Maggie...you are appreciated! -Evan and MacKenzieThe Best Tour We've Ever Done
