Had the absolute pleasure to meet and work with Emanuela. A joy, visited places in Milan I never even knew existed. Professional and simpatica at the same time.
If you ever need to live the city as a local and not a tourist, you must use her services. 5 stars all the way !!

Well. You certainly made an impression with my clients ! They have been in touch with their Canadian agent to say that out of all the guides they’ve EVER had, you were the most informative and the best !
