Hello everyone! I can't wait to meet you in person here in South Tyrol, a place I adore for its beauty, the majestic mountains that seem to have a touch of divinity, and its unique culture—a perfect blend of Germanic and Italian influences that make this place truly special and exotic! I was born in Naples in southern Italy, where I worked as a tour guide in stunning and well-known locations. Later, I moved to Rome and continued my work as a guide. Meanwhile, my love for travel and communication skills took me across Europe, guiding groups of students and others to explore the wonders of the old continent. After working as both a tour escort and a guide, I found my way to South Tyrol, here in Bolzano. What brought me here? The love for these splendid mountains, nature, and hiking. I started working as a guide in Bolzano a few years ago, and I absolutely LOVE it! I can't wait to share with you the incredible history of this small city and show you its most beautiful and interesting places. See you soon!

Claudia was a very engaging guide who brought a deep understanding of South Tyrol. She provided a two hour walking tour of Bolzano that served as a wonderful introduction to the geography, the history and the cultural life. She demonstrated a high level of professionalism with a very friendly attitude. Highly recommended.

Claudia designed a very special tour for me that started in Bolzano and ended in the tiny mountain town of Palu del Fersina where my great-grandparents lived. She arranged a meeting with a researcher at the Mocheno Cultural Museum in Palu who was interested to see the photos and documents (ship’s manifest from Ellis Island in New York) I brought with me. We had lunch at a cafe which bore my family name! Claudia is very worldly and has lived and traveled all over the world. Such life experience adds a lot to her guiding style. She is so knowledgeable and obviously loves being a tour guide. I wish I was staying longer in Italy so I could hook more tours with Claudia!

Claudia was just excellent: she provided extensive, interesting comments on the political, geographical, and social histories of Bolzano. She has a fine sense of humor as well. One of the best of the many fine toursbylocals guides we have used. Highest recommendation.
