"Oana’s deep knowledge of both the artists and the their works of art displayed in these churches really made for a unforgettable experience, particularly as she filled in a lot of the gaps in terms of the day to day life of the artist, their motivations and the comings and goings of their lives…"  Terence Wallis, Indelible Adventures

 “I was delighted with our recent touring experiences in Rome, arranged by Italia Pretiosa (Conti Travel). The guide was exceptional in her deep knowledge of the history of Rome and her sensitivity to our particular interests throughout the days. Although I am returning visitor to Rome. Our day exploring Ancient Rome with her was one of my best travel experiences ever!  I dreaded heading to the endless collections of the Vatican Museum, but she provided a great overview and then honed in our specific interests in the Hall of Maps. Throughout her English was impeccable! Our driver was a punctual, charming chauffeur throughout our stay from Civitavecchia through Rome and back to the ship in Naples. We were particularly relieved to spot him smiling by the car when as we cleared the Israeli guard, the Italian Military and the Ambulanza outside of Synagogue."   Dr. Sharon Hostler, University of Virginia
