Hi everyone I am Elisa.

Travelling in Italy is always a unique and endless discovery, given that it is a small country but it offers an infinite variety of experiences. There is such a huge heritage that you could come several times and always meet different traditions, history, flavors, life styles.

Breathtaking landscapes, romantic villages and lake view restaurants: Lake Como needs few introductions. Known all over the world, loved by numerous VIPs where you can discover some of its most suggestive corners. A few kilometers from Milan, it offers pleasant destinations for all tastes: a trip to the mountains with the family, a romantic walk along the lake, a visit to the sacred or literary places, a boat tour to the villas overlooking the banks and to the charming ancient villages.

Since 2005 I am working in tourism industry, as an employee, manager and free lance. My 360° experience has permitted me to develop a deep knowledge of travelers needs and expectations, increasing my skills on customer care and problem solving related to services management and unexpected issues.

I am a very personable and flexible person, being so curious and travel addicted. I developed ability to interpret the needs of a group, patience, authority combining a down to earth attitude. I consider myself knowledgeable and insightful, friendly and accommodating. I always take one more step than I thought I could, looking for a way to move outside my comfort zone so that I can test new approaches. I prefer new challenges instead of repeated and routine activities.

As I am used to take risks and try new experiences I am able to support others doing the same, that creates complicity and empathy. Working as a full-time tour guide since five years, step by step, my views have broadened sharing this experience with guests from all over the world.

I will be more than happy having you in Italy and help you explore the most remarkable places of my land, You are always welcome contact me if any questions with regard to your tours.

I am pleased to share with you my personal affection to such a wonderful place, filled with memories and romance of my youth. A deep discover of the unmissable spots, where musicians, artists, actors, writers fell in love!

The central part of Lake Como is well-known for the breathtaking peninsula of Bellagio, the 3 branches of the lake and the tip where the provinces of Como and of Lecco are contiguous.

You will be amazed by Bellagio, located at the base of a promontory that divides the lake into the branch of Como and Lecco, which is one of the most elegant and famous towns of Lake Como with its character of great charm.

Varenna will seduce you with its narrow alleys, the lovers walk, its villas and the Vezio Castle. It is a small fishing village and is located in the middle of the eastern branch of Lake Como and it extends from the lake towards the slopes of the homonymous mountain, known for its precious marble quarries.
