Siempre recomiendo tomar estos tours, y esta no es la excepción. Nos tocó Laura en vez de Oliver. Buscamos la bandera y no vimos nada, cuando ya se juntaba gente junto a la guía, es que escuchamos que era nuestro grupo. Esperamos a alguien que, parece, nunca llegó y por eso comenzamos unos minutros tarde. Luego el paseo fue cobrando importancia y se volvió muy ameno. Con bastantes detalles, algunas curiosidades y un poco de historia. Personalmente ya había realizado este tour el año pasado con otro guía y, esta vez, conocí algunos lugares escondidos por los que no habíamos pasado en esa oportunidad anterior. Así que, siempre hay algo más por descubrir, dependiendo de la mirada que nos presente nuestro guía. Encima, Torino es un lugar plagado de historia, aunque de la historia que no se ve tanto ¨para afuera¨, sino que, mayormente se descubre en su interior, y cuando algún local te cuenta sus secretos. El paseo dura dos horas aproximadamente. Gracias!

OTTIMO! MEGLIORE! What a full and fabulous tour. So many gorgeous piazzas! So much interesting history and information! We covered so much of the best of the city! Legendary coffee places and cafes and great tips for additional things to include. Angelo is extremely professional, well-informed and passionate about his city. It would be impossible to improve upon this tour. I would love to do more tours with Angelo. Grazie mille for an outstanding tour!
