Guide #14630
Hello my name is Ivonne a Licensed Naturalistic Hiking Guide of Marche Region and National & International Tour Leader. After traveling for many years and living in Australia for eight (working in the Tourism Industry as well as Life-Guard at the pool) I returned to live in Ancona, where I grow up. I love working outdoors, in contact with nature, artworks and people. I am very passionate about my work! I am a happy person, dynamic without being invasive, easily adapt myself to new situations and the needs of the people who I lead. I am also genuinely interested in making your experience unforgettable customizing a tour according to your interests-needs. I am keen to deliver a genuine Italian experience: History, Nature & Culture, and if you wish food and wine can be also part of it. The transportation is not included on my tour, however, feel free to ask me for a quote in case you need a car and driver for the tour. Why you should choose to be accompanied by a Local Guide? When you visit a new place, you land on an unknown planet, which you would like to discover the most authentic side. A Local Guide will accompany you in this experience wisely, not only telling you about the historical aspects as would any good book, a Local Guide will pick your choices, take you where you will get "surprise", show you places that probably you wouldn't have been able to reach on your own. I studied at the Art School then I worked many years as Graphic Designer until I moved to Australia and started to work in the hospitality field (discover my passion in working with people). I also worked as Life Guard in Australia so I'm trained for CPR. Then in 2012 I've decided to study to get the license as Tour Leader as well as Naturalistic Trekking Guide and since I got them granted I'm working and showing people the land where I'm from, I'm passionate about it. I'm working for the Cruises passages that stop in Ancona as well as Local Tour Operator & local administrations to promote this area. Since 2014 I became an entrepreneur and I also organize my own tour on my Facebook page: excursions throughout the Marche region.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and took us to some beautiful sites. She worked very well with me and answered all of my questions before we got there.
Tourguide Ivonne knows her town - she's born in Ancona. We learnt much about the past and the present of this historic harbour town, went up to the Duomo, further up to the old and new lighthouse, over trough the woods to the northern part of Ancona. Great views. In the afternoon we walked from the bar in Conero National Park to a "belvedere"/sight seeing point from where...

Thank you Martin and all the group :-) It was a beautiful adventure :-)
Ivonne was a delight. She showed us some beautiful and historical places (most places were both) and had stories to share about them all. Ivonne also picked out a lovely spot for us to have lunch and helped us make a reservation.

thank you Jamie for your review. It was my pleause to take you on tour at Riviera del Conero :-)
We very much enjoyed our tour of Ancona today with Ivonne. We walked through many beautiful areas of Ancona and stopped at interesting sites to learn more about the history of this area. Ivonne took us to a wonderful enoteca at the end of our tour to try several wines. She also gave advice on restaurants and nearby places to visit. Great day. Highly recommend!
