Commentary - The tour is very complete and very informative. Claudio is very pleasant and keeps the group in tune with the information he provides at every point in the city. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to know beyond the basics of the historic city center. The only suggestion for improvement would be time management and the route of the hike. Overall very good tour!
