What To Expect
Cosenza
Cosenza, inhabited since the dawn of time, was the capital of the Bruzi who thrived in a prosperous and rich city. The historic palaces, stately buildings, churches and the Duomo still testify to the grandiose past of Cosenza. The narrow streets, the uphill and downhill alleys and the narrow glimpses of domes and greenery cover the city with their web of wonders.
Teatro di tradizione Alfonso Rendano
The beating heart of the ancient city, the Alfonso Rendano Municipal Theater is the only Theater of Tradition in Calabria. Overlooking the splendid Piazza XV Marzo, it boasts a prestigious history, which has spanned time, marking an indelible trace in the cultural fabric of Cosenza and the entire region.

5.00Simone was a wonderful tour guide. We started with a wonderful lunch in the old part of the city. We then toured. He explained the history of the old and new parts of the city. We visited the duomo, walked the streets, answered our questions. We then made our way to Corso Mazzini where he provided explanations of the beautiful artwork that lines the mall. It was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Cosenza!

4.00Ernistina was an excellent guide—knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and respectful of local culture. For travelers who enjoy history, art, architecture, and authentic local food, this kind of tour is well worth it. If I were going back, I’d book a similar guide, maybe to Scila or somewhere similar. Our tour also included lunch which was delicious. Would I recommend? Yes. Particularly to first‑time visitors to Cosenza.

5.00Our guide Ernestina was absolutely amazing and full of knowledge. We were not rushed at any point and she answered all of our questions. It was extremely nice that a lot of people knew her and came up to say hello. We recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for local information!!
Ernestina is an Incredible Tourguide and Cosenza is an Incredible City!

5.00This tour made me fall in love with Cosenza. The city is so much more beautiful than I had imagined. It is rich with history, culture, museums, beautiful architecture and wonderful cafès and restaurants. Ernestina is incredibly kind and knowledgeable. She made a reservation for us at a restaurant that turned out to be one of the best meals we had in our entire stay. She made us fall so in love with this city that we are talking about moving there! I could not recommend this tour more. Five stars (if I could give it 10, I would!)
Trip of a lifetime

5.00The highlights on this trip are innumerable. From panoramic train rides to beautiful Lake cruises. To going on the steepest cog rail train in the world. To huge gondolas going up the side of the mountain face. I was fortunate enough to have an endearing couple as my guides John and deb Showcasing Switzerland. We had dinner at one of a kind place at 7,000ft. Muottas Muragi. Food was delicious!! To church Bells ringing in Andermatt and a trail face cut into the side of the mountain offered tremendous views of alps and North face of Eiger.!! My journey was like a living post card and I marveled at every turn.. All the best to everyone at Echo rails for such a great adventure!!
