Benvenuti in Italia ! I am Angelica, born and educated in Tuscany, I had the good fortune to move around different family proprieties throughout my childhood during summer holidays - from Chianti hills, Pisa, Pistoia and the Tuscan coast. These experiences along with my passion and knowledge of Italy, led me to choose this profession. I hold professional certifications as an Environmental Guide and a Wine Sommelier. I am very passionate about history, great food, and the outdoors. I provide great care in customizing tours and love to share and transmit my passion for Italy with people coming from other countries, creating lifelong memories. What to expect ? If your dream is to live an authentic Italian experiance, the best way is to have a local native guide coming from an historical family from central Italy…like me !! I will plan and customize your tour itinerary arranging trains, boats, and minivans if necessary even round trips from Florence ! Depending your necessities and time permitting, we will walk on best panoramic trails that suit your desires. On request, we can have a local wine testing / a culinary experience with great chefs / gourmet seafood meals in restaurants with seaveiws / of course the best Italian gelato. To live an authentic Italian experience, what is better than being guided by a local native, passionate and knowledgeable about my homeland? Ciao From Italy! I have been leading hiking tours since 1998 !! ….But, before then I was educated in Florence, Tuscany. After my Art School I obtained a diploma in Fine Art Conservation and Restoration from U.I.A. the International University of Art, Florence. In this field I worked for many years, from restoring the frescos in the Hermes Store in Florence to old books, prints and drawings date back 15th 16th century. I have a License as Environmental Guide and Wine Sommelier Certification. I am not a driver/NCC. But I can arrange a private professional licensed driver/NCC for tours where necessary.

Overview of your Florence tour

The Cinque Terre on the coast of the Liguria region are five fishing villages dating back to the 11th century. Its breathtaking villages on the cliffs, as well as the dry terraces planted with grape vines in its mountains are the result of the hard work of the farmers hands that over the centuries have forged the landscape. For this reason, today the Cinque Terre National Park is included in the UNESCO list as a World Heritage Site. On this tour we will visit at least three of the five charming fishermen villages, by train, foot or boat, depending on weather conditions. It will be possible to experience the trails in the National Park, walk along the narrow streets of the villages, go down to the seaside, where the small old wooden boats and nets lie down in the harbor, and eventually, on good season, swim in the Mediterranean sea. For lunch, a family-style trattoria is the natural reward for reaching this wonderful place! We can include a one hour stop in Pisa, to admire the romanesque, leaning tower.

WOW!! We wanted to see Cingue Terre & Pisa on the same day for our family of 10. Angelica made it happen!! Bless her heart. It took a lot of planning/communication. It was a very long day but it was so worth it . Her English is very good and we had no problem understanding Angelica. She is so passionate about life and especially her Tuscany!! If you have an opportunity to book Angelica, please DON'T HESITATE!! I have worked with many guides and She is truly one of the best!!

Thank you, Angelica, for an amazing day. Angelica took us on an adventure to an unexpected world. There is no way to describe the beauty of this area, you just have to see it. We were able to be flexible on where we explored and met locals who have had family in the regions for 100's of years. This was a blast.

We had an amazing day touring Cinque Terra with Angelica. She met us at the train station & led the way for the rest of the day. Because of rain & rough seas the main trails & ferry were not open. We still went to 3 of 5 towns & Angelica was quick to arrange a wine tasting & lunch. For my husband and I, it was more about the experiences than making sure we completed an agenda. Angelica knew how to plan the day to move through the crowds & is so fun to be with. We ended the day in Pisa! Best. Day. Ever.
