Hi everyone, my name is Cristina and I am a regularly qualified guide of the city of Ferrara and its province, later extended certification to the entire Emilia Romagna region. It will be a pleasure to show you the numerous monuments of the various cities of Emilia Romagna and to make you discover the history and the legends that every city or small village keep, you might find that even in a small town there are always new and interesting places to discover, after all Italy is known all over the world for art, tradition and culture as well as for superlative food in every country. I am waiting for all of you to discover monuments, art and culture of a wonderful province and region where you can find also nature and the typical enviroment of the Po Delta Park. The historical center of Ferrara and all its province is also recognized by Unesco as world heritage thanks to its medieval city centre and Renaissance urbanistic structure of the town and walls. Three specialized courses (organized by the Town Hall of Ferrara and held by professor of Art Academy of the University of Bologna) for tourist guides to lead groups inside art exhibitions at Palazzo dei Diamanti in Ferrara. Course for leading religious itineraries in Ferrara and its province during the Jubilee of the year 2000. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver or public bus or private bus or trains. I can arrange for you tours where you can fly over some cities with an helicopter with a specialized flyer.

Christina gave us an in depth tour of the D’Este Castle and the surrounding areas including the old Jewish Ghetto. We now appreciate the full history of Ferrara and the politics of the day. A very worthwhile tour.

Thanks a lot, I am really happy you appreciate the tour, many greetings to you all, Nice Regards Cristina P.s If you ever come back to Ferrara or Bologna I will be happy to meet you or your wife and friends again!
We met Cristina at Estenze Castle. Our focus was on Jewish Ferrara but we started at Estenze Castle as the main attraction. The visit was interesting and educational with perhaps too much emphasis on explaining all the paintings and ceiling frescos but YMMV. The cathedral was closed but the walk through the ghetto and the visit to the MEIS Jewish museum was well worth it....
