Antonia was great. She is very knowledgeable. She allowed us time to ask questions and she always knew the answers and kept us interested with fascinating stories and visual aides. She was also very kind and patient when I had a medical incident, and she stayed by my side until she was sure that I was ok. Her timing of breaks and photo ops were perfect. It was a great day. We have used “Walks” in the past for Italy and France and have always been satisfied with our tours. Thank you!

Highly recommend this company - have so far completed 3 tours in different countries and each have been a positive experience. The tour guides really know their subject matter - I’ve learnt new things from each tour and they try their best to make sure the areas and timings visited are as less crowded as possible.
