Hi! I am Riccardo, photographer, art historian, surfer, traveler and of course, tour guide! I'm from Vicenza, a city one hour west from Venice and I've been living in Venice for a long time now: this city attracted me since the first time I visited it as a kid. Wandering around its alleys with my mum made me sense its magical atmosphere and immediately enchanted me. My bond with Venice grew stronger over the years, so I couldn't help but moving here as soon as I could. Venice is my home, it has been for a long time. I love it and our relationship is pretty intense — sometimes too much. Being a tour guide helps me share these emotions with my guests. Venice has many beautiful things: art, history and beauty everywhere, but also lesser known, underground curiosities. I want you to discover them through my food, photo and walking tours to help you to get the best from your experience in this magical place. Being in love with this city is what makes the difference from simply being an expert of it, know its soul is the only way to get "her" essence, and what I want is just to help everyone to achieve this magic connection. - Official Tour Guide License - Official Tour Leader License - Art History Bachelor's degree - Economics and Management of Art Master degree - Professional Photographer - Architectural Restorer none

    Weekend in Venice and were lucky enough to have Riccardo with us as our guide for the late night version of Venice (an amazing experience) and then again pretty much all day with us on Saturday. First of all: Riccardo’s knowledge about Venice- from a historical viewpoint as well as a more modern sense- is AMAZING. He left no stone unturned as we traversed this magical...

    Who knew there were quiet, non-crowded areas in Venice?!? Riccardo showed us where they were while passing on fun historical tidbits and knowledge.

    Ricardo was a fantastic tour guide. He provided history and background on our tour through Venice as we traveled into the hidden gems of the island. He was very personable and shared details and stories about the area that only a local would be able to pass along. My multigenerational family enjoyed the tour immensely. He offered helpful suggestions and and...
