Ekc - Scrovegni Chapel, Padua - Tour Guide?

Ekc, You mentioned in another post a fantastic tour guide you had for the Chapel. Could you provide the name and contact info? Thanks! Janet

Ekc did post the tour guide info and email address in the thread on Italy tour guides.

His name is Guido Gambone and his email is guidogambone at gmail dot com.

Hi Janet! Guido is actually our trip "organizer" - he arranges everything and accompanies us on our trip. He hired the Chapel guide - I will email him and get the contact information for you!

No problem Janet! If I remember correctly, Serena also gave us a tour of the Palazzo della Ragione in Padova, including the Salone, which was invaluable. The interior of the Salone is fantastic and she explained everything about it. She also had us stop for a coffee beverage at Caffe Pedrocchi, which was divine!

I'm glad this was clarified too. It sounds as though Guido is a general private guide but can't take people through the Chapel.

ekc - how does that work. Did you hire Guido for a tour of the area and then he booked Serena for the Padua sights? Can you elaborate a bit on this. Do either of them have web sites?
