A tour with a local licensed guide is always an experience that gives you the chance to embrace the local culture and save money and time. Personally, what has always fascinated me the most is the connection between the present life and the ancient customs, the authenticity of the people, and the hidden treasures of each place that have always more untold stories to reveal.
