Great tour by Paloma

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a fabulous tour with Paloma. She was friendly, knowledgeable and informative but also great fun. She answered our questions and responded well to what we were particularly interested in. The tour was just what we wanted, key highlights but also unusual places off the beaten track. 5 stars - highly recommended

Paloma was fab!

Published on Nov, 2024

If you are lucky enough to have Paloma as your guide then you are pretty much guaranteed a great time. There were only three of us on our tour (plus Paloma) and so that made the tour even better as well. Paloma showed us many interesting sites and did not hurry us at all, allowing time for photographs where needed. Paloma''s local knowledge was clear to see and the tour was well worth the money we paid.

An excellent tour with Paloma

Published on Nov, 2024

My group of four booked a small group tour, which (lucky for us) turned out to be a private tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant, sharing all sorts of local insights regarding history, architecture, and food. We'll come back and do another tour with Paloma someday!
