About the Author
After growing up traveling with travel guru Rick Steves as his father, Andy had already led tours and updated guidebooks by the time he studied abroad in Rome in 2008. Andy found his calling in life to share his expertise with friends and fellow students while abroad. He turned this passion into a tour company, and has toured thousands of young travelers around Europe, connecting them with local culture, people and experiences.
