I am a licensed guide in Ravenna and Emilia Romagna. I was born in Ravenna and I love my job very much. It gives me the opportunity to meet people from all over the world. I can talk about the monuments in town, showing them not only the famous and gorgeous mosaics but also revealing hidden corners of the fascinating city of Ravenna. Every day I am enriched by the enjoyment of my clients and their happy eyes and smiles as they discover more than they ever thought about our wonderful history and beauty. After study and training courses , I have been working as a Tourist Guide and Enviromental Guide for many years; in Spring I work mostly with students, from primary to high school offering them city tours and excursions in nature. I like to create interesting itineraries such as: romantic tours, Hidden Ravenna, birdwatching in the Wetlands and in the Basilicas discovering other sorts of birds, made with glass paste…. . Ask me please, I will be pleased to propose something especially for you according to your own personal interest! A good review about Ravenna and me on NYT: http://www. nytimes. com/2015/03/01/travel/ravenna-italy-glittering-still. htlm The regional tour guide license obtained in 1997, for enviromental guide license in 2005. Many local training courses and more than 20 years of professional experience in Ravenna and surroundings, working also in many occasions for Hospitality Desk . I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

The mosaics of Ravenna are spectacular! Visiting them has been on my bucket list for years. Cinzia was a fantastic guide! Her knowledge was extensive and she provided a lot of historical context for both the mosaics and the City of Ravenna itself. We had a super hot day and she was able to adjust the pace to reflect that; she also slightly changed the order of what we saw to avoid some larger crowds. We would totally recommend Cinzia for your visit to Ravenna.

Cinzia gave an awesome tour of the Mosaics of Ravenna. She is so knowledgeable and well spoken. Ravenna is an easy walking town. The 5 main highlights are all close. The mosaics are incredible, along with Cinzia. We had a great day.

Cinzia was an excellent guide during g our time in Ravenna. She has a great knowledge and understanding of the important sites, especially of course the Early Christian Mosaics which were astoundingly beautiful and a must see. I would absolutely tour with Cinzia again and highly recommend her for any type of grouping.
