I would like to present myself as an expert of Itineraries in Florence and Tuscany. Florence is my base town, but I have lived for a long time in Siena Province, Chianti and San Gimignano. Certainly I have expertise in every corner of Tuscany. I offer and enjoy also giving tours in other destinations in Central Italy Liguria, Emilia, Umbria and Rome. My university formation is in the Fine arts and history. I am a licensed tour guide, tour manager and tour agent. I have followed several other courses in languages, wine production and Italian food. My professional experiences were for long time in art galleries. As a child, I traveled a lot with my family, as student I liked the idea of being an expert and knowledgeable tour guide. My passion for art, history, outdoor living, landscapes, cuisine made this possible in my mature age. That is how I started in 2009 my experience as a tour guide. I worked as free lance for several local companies based in Florence. Since 2016 I am promoting my services on this Platform ToursByLocals. I have no words to explain how great experience it has been since than. As of today, I prefer giving guided tours in the museums of Florence. But, I am passionate of exploring surroundings, towns, villages or trails off the beaten paths. My regular tours are result of experience . They are well balanced in order to provide to you the most relevant information and awake positive impressions and sensations. I am ready to listen and to shape the choice of the schedules, itineraries, the pace or the stops in a common agreement, when reasonably convenient and possible. If you want, for any reasons, to personalize itinerary please feel free to inquire. We will exchange our opinions in order to value feasibility and look for the best results. Each of the tours I propose have something personal and unique. I value and respect your choice to come to Italy, therefore I will do my best to be a qualified part of your memorable experience. The journey, the places, the sensations that you will keep the memory, the unique experiences are my goal I am an open-minded, energetic, professional, and smiling person and ready to advise, for your personal benefit and advantage. Tour guide license, tour manager license, tour agent, italian professional driving license, sommelier certificate.

Overview of your Florence tour

The world famous area of Chianti Region in Tuscany is waiting for you to explore it. Rolling hills, breathtaking landscapes, harmony of the colours, sounds, scents and flavours will be an unforgettable expereance. The tour starts with a drive through the most scenic roads of the region. Visiting the wine cellars or their shops, is one of the great attractions. You may be accommodated at 1 or 2 location, as you wish. Tasting of the famous red wine Chianti, white wines if available, and Supertuscans, arround Greve in Chianti. The town itself is an attraction. It's main square, oval shaped surrounded by vaulted walkway and numerous characteristic shops will be for you a joyful and personal breakaway. You may buy wine to take away, or to ship back home. In the late '80 II lived in Greve. I went to visit most of this properties. Some even before they turned into modern and attractive places. I consider myself a good conosseur. There are many options. If you have any particular estate ask about the availability.

We are a couple in our 50s on holiday for a few days in Florence. Our tour to Tuscany with Sinisa was memorable and the highlight of our trip! Sinisa was knowledgable, spoke English fluently and gave us a lot of context about the places we visited by offering interesting and unique insights. He was relaxed, engaging and gave us a lovely stress-free day. We felt comfortable and safe with his driving and his suggestions of places to visit. The wine tasting experience was unique and romantic! We did not feel rushed at all and travelled at a good pace. He offered us a perfect combination of having time on our own and being with us admiring the scenery, exploring the towns and wineries. Thank you very much, Sinisa!

What a great tour! We travel to Italy every year and spend quite a bit of time in Tuscany tasting many wines including Brunello and Chianti. We've attended wine events in Bordeaux and have been collecting French and Italian wines for our cellar for many years. Because the Chianti Classico Expo in Greve in Chianti happened to be occurring, we contacted Sinisa about modifying the tour to include the Expo. Sinisa was always responsive to our communications and he agreed to modify the tour. Since one of our stops was the Chianti Classico Expo, we asked if he would like to walk with us through the Expo. His knowledge of wine was impressive. He knows his wine and he knows the area. He also took us to two other wineries. Whether you are a novice or a wine connoisseur, Sinisa is an outstanding guide. Don't hesitate to book him. Thank you Sinisa for making this such a wonderful tour!

Sinisa has lived in multiple villages in the Chianti region. His in depth local knowledge created a wonderful, customized tour. One lane back roads to beautiful, locally owned wineries was a highlight of the tour. Sinisa accommodated our requests along the way and was very patient. A great tour.

Sinisa's knowledge of the Chianti region was impressive. My husband and I enjoyed learning about the area and, of course, tasting wine. We would recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning about Chianti.

Sinisa was wonderful. He had great communication with us before the tour and was supportive with my husbands unexpected limited mobility. We were still able to see the countryside and, have a lovely wine tasting and hear about the wonderful history of Florence. Recommended.
