Lorenzo was great. Met at the meeting spot on time. Took us on a historic walk while explaining the history and culture of Genova. All the good and wine we've tasted were delicious, especially the fried fish. Lorenzo allowed us to visit stores as well. It was a really enjoyable day tailored to us personally. Would definitely do this again. Thank you Lorenzo
