Hello and welcome to Brescia, Verona, Lake Garda and Lake Iseo My name is Davide, and my goal is to help you experience this beautiful part of Italy as a real local, not just as a visitor. I am a licensed tour guide with over 20 years of experience, an art historian, and a professional cook with a deep passion for local food and wine. My guiding journey began in Stockholm, Sweden, continued in Rome, and eventually brought me back to this extraordinary area of my beloved country. Why Brescia, Lake Garda and Verona? Few places in Italy combine history, beauty and everyday life so naturally. From a sunset walk through Verona’s romantic streets, to the lively alleys of Brescia’s Carmine district, or sitting in a family-run vineyard tasting Valpolicella or Franciacorta, this region reveals its charm through people, traditions, hidden corners and centuries of fascinating stories. Last but not least… my tours are designed for curious, thoughtful travelers who want to truly understand the places they visit through engaging storytelling — without being lectured. I like to combine solid and serious knowledge with a relaxed atmosphere, a touch of humor, and plenty of room for conversation, fun, and a good laugh. Join me, and let’s turn your time here into a memorable, engaging and enjoyable experience. - Licensed Tour Guide of Brescia and Verona - Licensed Tour guide of Rome - Licensed Tour Guide in Stockholm, Sweden - Licensed Bicycle and Trekking guide active in all of Italy - Art Historian with Master degreee at the University of Milano - Professional Cook

Overview of your Brescia tour
One of the strongest aspects of Brescia is how unexpected everything is, Brescia surprises at evey turn. Its beauty, its past and modern significance, its vibrant way of life, its layered and complex history. Still, in a country often associated with flair and performance, Brescia is a city that doesn’t shout to be noticed. Its people are confident, warm, and grounded, secular and playful. This is not just a scenic walk — it’s a tour that connects architecture, power structures, and everyday life over 4000 years. Ending with a local drink "Pirlo" gives you a taste of contemporary Brescia as much as the walk uncovers its past.
