There were 6 of us on the tour with “Frank” (Francesco). We’re all gardeners, and Frank made a point of showing us interesting plants, such as the oldest Plane tree in Italy. He gave us a ton of information about the history of the area, making it fun for us by giving us “points” for remembering important facts. He checked often that we were absorbing what he told us and would say things in different ways to make sure we got it. He had several visuals aids (maps, old photos, etc) that helped bring history alive. Thoroughly enjoyable and valuable 3 hours!
