Hello there! This is Antonella, a Venetian born and raised travel and culture addicted tour guide and tour leader. When in Venice I don't offer only the factual information clients expect but also a cultural context that creates a more rewarding experience. I sense the kind of guest in front of me and adapt in no time delivering a tailor-made tour. When I don't lead/guide I act as an active member of a theatre company. My passion for theatre is very useful for my profession as I never "lecture" my guests: I actually engage them. When I don't act I write, obviously about travel! I live in Venice since I landed here for university studies. Later, I never wanted to leave the city, which I love deep down, if not to travel the world, of which I feel a citizen. I love my job because it allows me to combine passion for foreign languages and for this incredible city, with history, art, architecture, food (get ready for some gourmet tours!) and for theatre which, as a matter of fact, in Venice is a long-time tradition. -Government certified tour guide license issued by the Province of Modena (Italy) -Government certified tour leader license issued by the Province of Venice (Italy) -Port of Venice permit of access issued by the Venitian Port Authority (Italy) -Wine tasting Advisor issued by Onav and EBT (Italy) -Master in journalism at the Scuola di Giornalismo A.Chiodi (Venice, Italy) -Master in non profit economics; major in history of microcredit at the University of Ferrara (CARID) -Degree in economics of tourism; major in marketing re-launch of a Tout Operator at Ca' Foscari University of Venice No restrictions at all.

Antonella was an extremely engaging guide.... Her pre-tour communications were excellent and much appreciated. During the tour, Antonella was very we informed, giving us just the right amount of information without sounding like we were attending a lecture. She is very knowledgable and personable and made our tour very enjoyable. Thank you Antonella!!

A great way to spend the day. We'd been looking forward to Murano and Burano and Antonella didn't disappoint. You won't go wrong with her as your guide.

Antonella was great! Very well-informed and having been raised in Venice, she knows every alley & shortcut. The tour was interesting, informative, took us to the key parts of the city, provided great historic perspective, and was enjoyable to be with. We recommend her without hesitation.

Antonella is a great guide, with marvelous stories of Venice’s history and legends. She could connect us with the best glass masters and lace makers, and we loved our very personalized time. I recommend Antonella enthusiastically.
