    What a blessed relief not to have Yonas today and what a difference 1. copious, generous information 2. full of good humour and joy 3. most kind over the boat mix-up (my fault) 4. great attention to pick-up points and checking any questions about these places so no-one got lost or was worried --- THIS is a tour guide THIS is TUI standard or beyond ---

    Gabriella was our our guide and where should I begin? Her smile was as warm as the sun and her bubbly personality made my partner and I feel at home. Almost as if our gran was helping us navigate new areas. Could not thank her enough for make our day trip so memorable. The bus was clean and well driven thanks to Franco. The AC blasting was also a classy touch since our Scottish bodies were not accustomed to the Italian heat. 10/10 would recommend.
