I'm an Architect, specialized in Restoration of Monuments and Valorization of Cultural Heritage, subject that I also teach, but I'm also a licensed tourist guide; I love to travel all around the world and I've visited many nations to follow my passion for photography and my curiosity in learning about different countries and their own various cultures. I've chosen to become a tourist guide and I've been doing this in the last years cause I want to share with other travellers from worldwide the great love I have for my island on all the different aspects that can offer to visitors: architecture, history, nature, food and wine, fine arts, archaeology, music, popular traditions, brightness of the sky, heady scents, deep blue sea and mucht more. . . but also less famous aspects like the ones concerning the Second World War on the tracks of the Allied landing in Sicily in 1943. I'll lead you to the discovery of symbolic places for our ancient and contemporary history that deserve to be rediscovered, lived and appreciated, and I can build personalized itineraries on your personal needs and curiosities. Come with me and i'll introduce you to this exciting kaleidoscopic world that is Sicily, my land! I speak fluently english and french.

An half day walking tour in Catania's city centre to find places related to the famous opera composer.
Overview of your Catania tour
A tour dedicated to the lovers of the great Italian Opera, a tribute to the "Swan" of Catania, Vincenzo Bellini, author of many operas included the masterpiece Norma, one of Maria Callas's prefered ones. In this tour we will start with the visit of birthplace of Vincenzo Bellini, now the museum dedicated to him that contains original scores, manuscripts, instruments and personal belonging of the artist; after we will have a look at the ancient theater, an oper air construction built in the II sec A. C. just close to the museum. Inside the baroque Cathedral of the city, we will see the tomb of Bellini and we will end the tour with a visit of the Opera Theatre, the Teatro Massimo Vincenzo Bellini, considered one of the most beautiful Italian theatres. I've been going in this theatre since I was a child cause my parents are really opera lovers. I consider it as a part of my life, a place in which my soul feels happy! Join me on this tour and I'm sure that you will fall in love with Bellini's music.
