A Wonderful and Informative Tour

We really enjoyed our tour with Andrea! His clear and engaging explanations brought the cathedral and the city’s major sights to life. We also appreciated his good sense of humour and his passion for some of the fascinating artefacts we discovered along the way. A very enjoyable and informative experience!
