Guide #37692
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

Riccardo was the perfect guide for my mom and me in Venice! We had both been to Venice before and were looking for a more local experience, and Riccardo delivered. He shared wonderful local anecdotes and was incredibly flexible, improvising throughout the day based on what we were interested in. He took us to local neighborhoods, galleries, and shops, and even found us...

Fantastic tour of Murano and Burano! We visited great artisan shops and were able to set our own pace. The public ferry system can be confusing, so it was nice to have an expert to travel around efficiently.
