What People Are Saying

"Excellent! I watched and rewatched it. It gave me a great structure to better appreciate the Paris Walking Food Tour I took later and just in general, a grounded understanding that enhanced my first time in Paris. Thank you Andres!"

Jeanne

"This was an excellent introduction/orientation for Tokyo Newbies! Mandy was well organized and most interesting with excellent pictures and maps - it is no small task to gallop through centuries of history and the landscape and food of a city the size of Tokyo! Thank you!"

Ellen

"Though we've seen the Vatican Museums, Livia Galante introduced us to far more of the treasures within the Museums. Most helpful to travelers would be the map she shared of the various sites of art-historical interest. Her selection of works and comments were - as usual - brilliant and inspiring to travelers on foot and in armchairs. She's the best!"
