Client Testimonials cont: It was a wonderful way to spend the day learing about Rome - seeing and hearing things we would never had learned on our own. We wish we had more time to spend with you exploring and learning about the history and people? We only wished we had written down more of what you had said and perhaps used a tape recorder to play back and label our pictures. We look forward to coming back to Italy and touring the Tuscany aread with YOU. Patti and Ken Kosich, CA USA - May 2007 Peter, A million thanks for your time, patience and attention last week. What a wonderful day! Everyone appreciated the itinerary, your wonderful relaxed style, the informed descriptions and the anecdotes (even if some were a tiny bitlong-winded). It was the best tour ever - and was certainly the high point of the vacation. "Next time" - if there are 6 of us - we rent a van and ensure that we all arrive on time and travel together so that we can all benefit from your many gems of wisdom and stories during the drives between towns and villages. Again, thanks for the wonderful tour - I hope to hear from you soon and to see you next summer. Regards, Virginia and John Canada We were set to see Italy on a Mediterranean voyage and had engaged Peter for a day in Rome at the end of our cruise. Well, the cruise was cancelled and we were devastated. I emailed Peter of our dilemma, and he said it was probably a blessing, that we could see much more of Italy on land. Through his website and emails, I was able to book hotels and plan an itinerary for our 10 days in Italy. Our trip turned out to be absolutely wonderful. All of his recommendations were on the mark, and made for an experience that we could not have done on our own. We engaged Peter for a day in Tuscany and half day in Rome. Our time with him was priceless. His knowledge of the land, history, and arts is simply indescribable. He took us to more places (including excellent places to eat) in a day and a half than we could have seen in a week and we learned so much in the process. He even helped us with our luggage and checking in to our hotels! We know that our Italian experience was far better than if we had been on a cruise. I am convinced that Peter was the "blessing" in our situation. If you want to truly experience Italy, you need to see it with Peter. Evans and Joanne Peters Douglasville, Georgia USA 2005 Dear Peter Thanks for your email. Coincidently, I caught up with Paz yesterday and was pleased to hear that they had a great trip. They particularly enjoyed meeting up with you and made the comment that you made their stay in Rome. Thanks for looking after them so well. Michael Nolan, Manager Director, Bayview Travel, Melbourne, Australia "When it became known to our friends we were planning a trip to Italy, Peter Kilby's walking tours were recommended. Not just recommended, it was a "must do". He was easily contacted and we booked a day in Rome with him. We were very pleased to have had contact with him at the start of our 4 week Italy holiday. He is more than a guide, having lived in Italy for many years. He has his finger on the pulse of culture, history, politics and great places to visit, not just in Rome. Not only was he our guide, he became our Tuscan friend, he is definitely on our Christmas Card list. We have friends recently returned from Italy, who have also enthused over his talents as an English and Italian speaking font of knowledge, a real find. We would thoroughly recommend visitors to Italy contacting Peter, you will not be disappointed, he goes the extra mile." James Watson and Pam Knight - Hawkes Bay - New Zealand. "The afternoon my husband and I spent with Peter Kilby in Rome was without question one of the highlights of our Italian adventure. Peter has an impressive command of historical knowledge and a palpable affection for the country, putting both to use with humor and dramatic flair as he peels back the facade of modern day Italy and exposes the facinating and intricate layers of antiquity. We could only have wished for the benefit of his company at other points along our journey." Jack and Jane Louis - Austin, Texas - USA, 2005 return to main page
