Katastrophal

Deie Basilika war an diesem Tag für Führungen gesperrt, ein Guide war nicht vor Ort. Telefonisch war unter der gegebenen Kontaktadresse niemand erreichbar. Die Ansage auf dem Anrufbeantworter nur in Italienisch. Die Viator Nummer aus Italien nicht erreichbar. Insgesamt mehr als ungenügend.

Diese Erfahrung tut uns leid, leider hatten wir im COVID-Heim organisatorische Probleme, zum Glück sind wir ab 2021 wieder zu 100% in Betrieb und alle unsere Touren sind mit 5 Sternen.
Zögern Sie nicht, uns zu kontaktieren, wir bieten Ihnen gerne eine Tour zur Erholung an.
Aufrichtig,
