All our products can be booked on line, both immediately or on request, and our offer also includes original and tailor-made activities, which can be customized according to the costumer's needs.

The success of our working method and our focus on customer care allowed us to grow quickly both on a quality and on a quantity level in these first 5 years of activity. Our numbers can be considered evidence of this: in particular, the 742,350 bookings received from 1January 2013 (last update 2 April 2015) and, above all, the opinions of our customers, to whom we regularly ask to leave a review after using our services. In little more than one year we have collected almost 1,500 reviews and all of them are guaranteed, as each of them is linked to a specific reservation code. Our editorial staff reads them one by one and answers to the customers who are not completely satisfied. We are firmly persuaded that these reviews can provide us with valuable suggestions to improve our services. Our up-to-date average score (9/10) rewards us of the work done so far and encourages us to improve further, to reach, why not, a full 10/10!
