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.
