I agree with Susan above. Simone is the most literate , the best communicator, the sine qua non of guides. Sell replays, we would thrill to watch/tip again and again

Simone’s talks are of crafted in such away that they are interesting to a wide range of backgrounds. I have 6 years of higher education and I find them interesting. Although, I am not an expert in art, art history, Archology, ancient history, bring history alive. Makes it real even contexts the dots. So you come away feeling you have learnt something (many things quiet often). I do not feel that all the World Virtual Tours guides take as much time , effort and imagination into their talks. Some of the other tour guides have doctorates but are sadly lacking in the abilities that Simone L., displays. I am now very ill,and world is very small. These talks of Simon and Igor’s walks in Venice have expanded and lit my world these pass few months. Sometimes, it is my only escape from my four walls to the World Virtual tours. Most of you are great. However,Simone can tell a good story to whatever level. And not just read it of online books, you feel he his stuff. It is something to look forward to. Apologies, for the spelling and grammar. I am extremely dyslexic, linked of my health. Thank you all virtual tour guides.

Simone has the best communication skills. And yes he does know *everything*. I wish you would replay his talks, and let us tip him all over again!
