Simone's information and guidance was absolutely priceless! He helped us finalize our itinerary and then provided us with his local recommendations for activities, hotels, restaurants and scenic drives. Everything he recommended could not be found in any tour book and will make this so much more of an authentic and special experience.

Dania was very open and comfortable to chat with. Provided some good spots to visit and provided local contacts in villages. Was informative with restaurants and non tourist locations. Will definitely use the service again.

This is the 2nd time I've consulted with a Go Ask A Local guide and once again, the local guide exceeded my expectations! Alfonso (a local guide near Barcelona, Spain) is so knowledgeable about Barcelona, he truly helped me improve our plans for our trip to his beautiful city later this year. He answered all of my questions, made excellent suggestions for the different age groups in our travel group. Time and money well-spent talking with Alfonso!!

This was my first time using "Go Ask a Local ", and if all the "locals" that are a part of this group are as good as Paolo, then I am going to be thrilled that I found this service. Paolo was outstanding. He was friendly and had a good sense of humour, he is very knowledgeable about his area of expertise, he was good with me recording our zoom session so I could refer back and right after our call, he sent me links to all the places we talked about, and links to interactive maps he has created. This info, even without the pleasure of a 1 hour zoom call with Paolo, was worth the fee. If you are going to be in Puglia, then I strongly suggest that you start your planning by spending an hour with Paolo on a Zoom call. It will be the best $125 you spent on your adventure.

We are delighted to have found Paolo- a Local expert on Puglia! In the hour we spent on Zoom, he answered all our questions and provided exceptional local insight to take our trip to the next level. Zoom enabled him to screen share and actually show us some of the places we are considering. Being seasoned travelers, we recognize a wonderful 5* guide. Thank you, Paolo!

Stefano Mazzantini was wonderful! He shared so much valuable information that we are now confident in completing our travel plans to Italy in April of this year. Besides his knowledge and experience Stefano possesses an awesome personality allowing for a fun hour of exchanging information.

Found the site online as I was researching to plan an upcoming trip to Puglia. Great info online. And although I am an experienced traveler and had devised my own itinerary on previous trips in France as well as Italy, Puglia seemed like it required a little more planning to avoid driving long distances and also because there is so much to see and do.I decided to schedule a consultation. Paolo was great, knowledgeable, helpful, and really nice. He had prepared by looking at the questionnaire and was able to give me advice and two itinerary options tailored to our interests and time. It was really worth it because he helped me make changes to the itinerary I had come up with. I think that alone probably saved us lots of time and driving. Of course, he also advised us on things we did not come across through researching online and provided helpful recommendations for hotels and restaurants. A really valuable resource. I will certainly be using it in the future.
