Review of Walk About Italy Website
Walk About Italy’s site is lovely, easy to navigate and full of personality. Their About Us page is perfect, introducing each local guide so we feel like we’re already friends. They provide all of the important details for each tour, including beautiful photos of accommodations and descriptions of culinary excursions — very enticing! But you know what we really love? Their blog — it’s short, personal, fun and you can tell it’s written by a human (at least we hope so).
