Great tour guide!

We had a great time with Elisabetta in Lyon. She was very knowledgeable and professional and she showed us details and hidden places in the city. Our visit to Lyon would not have been the same without her. We definitely recommend her services.

Perfect

Caroline is simply the best tour guide I’ve ever had. Please understand that I not only used to be a tour guide decades ago but I’ve hired numerous guides over the years, so I don’t say this lightly. She is the most professional, knowledgeable, and collegial person I’ve had the pleasure to tour with.
