| Luciano is an excellent guide. Our tour was well planned, we covered a great deal in just a few hours and he was completely responsive to our needs. Highly recommended! |

| As this tour was postponed a day, it was taken by Francisco who was first class - an excellent communicator,friendly, enthusiastic about his city and who went the extra mile(or more!) to give us a very full and interesting tour, covering so much of Buenos Aires, it was fantastic. We would highly recommend him as a guide. We did not meet Luciano but thank him for being so helpful in re arranging our tour on account of the ship's late arrival. |

| Due to an accident the prior day Luciano was not able to tour us. He had tried unsuccessfully to reach us to see what we wanted to do. Since he was unable to reach us, he met us at the ship terminal and brought another guide with him. His name was Francisco. He gave us the opportunity to cancel or tour with Francisco which we did. Both Luciano and Francisco were extremely professional. Francisco gave us a fabulous tour and we left with fond memories of Buenos Aires! Tours by Locals is Great! |
| TOURSBYLOCALS RESPONSE: We pleased that you enjoyed your tour. Francisco is Luciano's colleague and it's great that he has such competent back up. |

| Luciano gave us a great tour of the city and took us to places that ship shore excursions do not go and to other places that we requested. While his command of English is good, he struggled at times to give explanations. We would recommend him to friends. |

| Luciano was a charming and very informative guide. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would recommend him highly. He made our tour and lunch at a local restaurant in Buenos Aires a most amazing experience and we really appreciate the time he spent with us. Thanks, Luciano. |

| Had a real fun time with Luciano in BA. He even provided some colorful umbrellas when it started to rain. He knows his stuff and went on and on about local culture and sites. Easy to talk to and makes your day pleasant, fun and informative. Take his tour if you can. Its the best! |

| Luciano was a wonderful tour guide. He is so knowledgeable about the culture, politics,history, art and architecture of Buenos Aires and everything else. I don't think I have ever encountered a guide who could answer every question I posed and I ask a lot of questions! My family and I loved all the stories and anecdotes. They brought the city to life. It was just like touring with a friend. He tailored the tour to those things that interested us most. Thank you Luciano! Beverly, Eric Melissa and Josh |

| Luciano was there at the appointed pick up at the airport and started the tour in a very friendly and jovial manner. It's obvious that he loves Buenos Aires and is very proud of Argentina. We took in a lot of the top sites but the highlight was a steak lunch he took me too - delicious wine and one of the best steaks I have ever had. Along with provoloneta! Food was awesome. Luciano was super flexible, very knowledgeable, and I highly recommend him!!! |
| TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Hi Lawrence, thanks for your words and hope you had a light digestion! |

| Luciano was prompt and knowledgeable and made for a very interesting day touring the highlights of Buenos Aires. There was good interchange of ideas and we were prepared for the rest of our stay with places to revist. I could recommend him highly and the company as well. |

| The tour with Luciano was very informative and pleasant. It was like we were touring with a family member and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We came away from this tour and the Tango tour with a very good understanding of the country and its history. I would highly recommend Luciano to anyone looking for pleasant and informative company and direction. |

| Luciano is passionate about his country and his knowledge & enthusiasm made this a fantastic tour. We learned so much about Buenos Aires and have a real appreciation for its history and people. The tour was varied, interesting and balanced. The restaurants he recommended were excellent, he patiently answered our questions and catered the tour to our interests. At the end, he even made an extra trip back to our hotel after I left my water bottle in his car. We would highly recommend a tour with him! |
| TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thanks Brenda, it was a real pleasure to meet you!! It was a very funny lunch and thanks for that!!
un abrazo! |

| Luciano was very helpful in our understanding of the culture and history of Argentina, along with showing us the highlights of Buenos Aires. He is bright and very "simpatico". We would recommend him very highly. |
| TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Hi Judith thanks for your comments and it was a pleasure to spend the firt day of this year with you!!Take care, Luciano |

| Fantastic tour! Luciano was a great guide, showing excellent knowledge of the city, being very accommodating and organising the tour around my specific needs. His command of English is excellent, with no language problems whatsoever. On top of this, his knowledge of the city's roads and driving were most impressive, being able to show me far more of the city in a short amount of time than a tour bus would have otherwise. In summary, a perfect tour that I'd recommend to anyone! |
| TOUR GUIDE RESPONSE: Thanks Tom!! I had lot of fun with you and I´ve enjoyed learning many aspects of Australia too. I wish the other tour guides in Argentina and all around the world can have travellers like you!! |
