Guide was excellent- explained significance of areas visited in cont of Greek history and mythology…. Very thorough! Very pleasant guide who negotiated the walking restriction in one member of our party quite well!

Marili was terrific .. very knowledgable .. professional . Considerate given a very hot day .. and we covered it all .. made our trip I felt the deep quality of the guide and knowledge was the most impressive . Recently i chaired the National Museum of Australia .. wish we could hire and recruit her to Canberra !!

My family has toured with Context from Argentina to Great Britain and Rome, and in all of our wonderful, brilliant tours (every single one), Alessandra in Florence is unmatched in her ability to engage her group and transmit her vast knowledge of art history. She is a natural and gifted teacher for all ages. We were with Alessandra for six hours - six hours that flew by even for my 15-year-old son. She wove together a coherent, rich story for us of the Uffizi’s vast collection to help us understand Florence as it rose to power and then started to weaken. Alessandra helped my 13-year old along too, finding just the right gelato stops when he needed it. She pointed out details of the David that we would not have seen without her. Alessandra is delightful to be with. She has our highest and unqualified recommendation.
