Hello! I am Ilenia , Florence local guide, and I will be happy to guide you through the streets of the most beautiful town in the world: Florence! What I offer are experiences that will make you discover Florence in different aspects: history, art, food, and traditions. I love this town and the surprise I can see in the eyes of my guests when I show them Florence. I was born in Modena, the town of balsamic vinegar, Ferrari, and Pavarotti. When I was 23 I left home to go to London to learn English. That experience has been really unique and made me feel like I wanted to discover the world. After that, I started working for an Italian tour operator in hotels in Maldives, Kenya, Tanzania, Egypt, Greece, Germany, and Switzerland. This experience helped me to improve my English and learn how to find always the best solution for any of my guests. But as I reached Florence. . . I fell in love with the town, history, and masterpieces. Any corner of this town hides a secret, legend, or piece of history. That's why I decided to become a local guide, to have the possibility to share my passion with Everybody. When I do not work. . . I sing! Music is a passion and I try to find also some time to play with my band. I really hope to meet you here in Florence and help you to discover this beautiful town. See you in Florence!! - License as a local guide and tour leader, since 2016. - 15 years of experience working in Hotels as guest relations, receptionist, bookings. I can not drive a car with tourists, but I can find a driver with is own car/van.
