Amazing, Insightful Tour with Danilo This was our first visit to Calabria and the first time we’ve hired a private guide to take us around. I wanted to visit the wonderful hill top towns of Altomonte, Civita, Morano Calabro in the north, and the charming seaside towns of Pizzo, Tropea, Scilla in the south. Danilo did not disappoint. He created a customized itinerary for us, which included rafting on Laino Borgo and a visit to Reggio to see the Riace bronzes. The olive oil mill was wonderful, the cooking class was amazing. Even though it was in Italian, Danilo translated for us, and my husband was able to prepare the wild boar recipe later on. We visited the wine region of Ciro Marina, and Ippolito Winery. Paolo took us on a tour of the vineyards, the Turkish marketplace with a beautiful view of the sea, and guided us through a food and wine tasting (wonderful!). Danilo was attentive to our needs. When we lost WiFi in our hotel in Altomonte due to a small fire nearby, Danilo took us to his home nearby so my husband could quickly download his emails. Danilo’s love for Calabria and the people is clearly evident when you spend a few days touring around with him. He had so many stories to share about life in Calabria, his family, his friends (his wedding stories were hysterical). I would tour with him again in a heartbeat, I can’t emphasize enough how amazing this experience was for us. If you are planning a visit to Calabria, visit with Danilo, you won’t regret it!
