Anna is a professional and thoughtful guide who knows everything about the history of Cassino. We had a great unforgettable day with humour and education. Don't miss this tour. I love the way she drove us to key sites to give us perspective of the town. We will be back.

Great tour
cathmodlik, Sep 2023
Really enjoyable tour with so much information from our very knowledgeable guide. You couldn't get someone better to take you to these sites. Very friendly and personable guide. The timing of everything was great and didn't feel rushed. The only down side for me, was being squished in the back seat of the car on a very hot day without aircon and I missed some of what was said from road noise with the front windows open. My window didn't open. My husband on the other hand sat in the front and had an excellent journey.
An unbelievably thorough account ….
MARY_N, Sep 2023
Anna gives an excellent and thorough account of the battles that surrounded the area of Monte Cassino. She is a wealth of information and has a remarkable knowledge of history in general. If the battles of Monte Cassino interest you, I highly recommend this tour! Thank you so much Anna!

Anna's knowledge of the battles at Cassino and the lay of the land and places where battles occurred gave us a feeling for what our uncle experienced in one of the battles.Anna was a wonderful tour guide.

Amazing Anna, Terrific Tour!
Kelsey_G, Jul 2023
Anna was the most amazing guide - she went above and beyond helping us to figure out train issues from Rome to Cassino. She was welcoming, kind and friendly and has a wealth of knowledge! She tailored our tour towards our country's (New Zealand) specific facts and histories which was much appreciated. There was so much to see and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment! Thank you so much Anna!!!

Going to see places that we would have missed if we were on our own. Anna was very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour with her to anyone.
Fantastic, informative & enjoyable tour
Helen_C, Jun 2023
I really want to give Anna 6 ⭐️’s!! The tour was fantastic. She bought history alive for us. I now fully understand why Cassino was such a difficult conflict for the Kiwis and all the Commonwealth forces. Thanks so much Anna! Would highly recommend this tour 🙂 Brett & Helen Perth, Western Australia 🇦🇺
Great tour
JOHN_B, Jun 2023
Fortunately for me, I was the only one taking the tour today. I was able to pepper Dr. Anna with questions and she had the answers to all of them. Her knowledge of the Cassino battles is tremendous.
Response from Host, Jun 2023

Well worth it
Anton_H, May 2023
Very inspiring tour. Gives you a better under Of the battles than you would get from reading about them. It also helps that the tour consists of small groups, which allows you to get more interesting information out of your guide. Would recommend

Outstanding experience with Anna
Alison_G, Apr 2023
Anna was so accommodating, she gave my Sister and I a very personal tour, explaining everything in great detail. There was no time pressure and Anna went to great effort to show us exactly where our Father fought. Thank you Anna for making our tour such a memorable experience we will never forget x
A must do tour
David_R, Apr 2023
I knew a little about the conflict as my father fought there in the war but Anna really knew her stuff and her descriptions really brought the battles to life and gave you a sense of how hard fought a victory it was at great cost. The monastery is incredible considering it was all but totally destroyed and the commonwealth cemetery was very emotional reading some of the inscriptions😢
Sensational
tigerbomber, Nov 2022
Anna was informative and entertaining her knowledge on WW11 and in particular the battle fields of Cassino was outstanding. She went out of her way to help us with our travel plans, we cannot thank her enough for the wonderful experience. Highlight of our trip!
