Hello, I am a Licensed Tour Guide with a two decades experience and would like to share with you my great passion for Florence and Tuscany. I was born and raised in Florence, I measured in History and Art History (University of Florence), got a Master of Arts in Communication (CESI, Paris) and then became a licensed Tour Guide of Florence and Tuscany. After long stays in the USA, Latin America, France, Spain and Russia (that's how I learn four languages!) I decided to come back to my hometown and make a job of what I love best: Florence and its surroundings, the incredible beauty of its art and architecture, its thrilling history, the harmony of Tuscan landscapes as well as the flavors of local food and wines. I love to suggest and plan itineraries, going from best-known monuments (gothic Cathedrals, masterpieces of Renaissance painting, Michelangelo's statues) to hidden beauties (secret gardens, little medieval churches, narrow streets full of surprises). And I love to tell stories related to the places we are visiting, true ones as well as Middle Ages legends: I am myself a great traveller and I know how important is to customize the tours to the taste of my guests, with the goal to make their trip always a unique experience. During the winter I work as a photographer and I teach photography, another great passion of mine: this gives me the opportunity to propose the unique "Florence Photographic Tour", a walk through the streets and squares of the city center seeking for the best corners and points of views in order to bring back home unforgettable pictures (so different from regular postcards!). Not only I will bring you to places most tourists don't even know about, but I will also help you valuing your subjects by catching the best light and experimenting unusual perspectives. I look forward to showing you the treasures of Florence and Tuscany and having a good time with you! - Licensed Tour Guide of Florence and Tuscany - University Degree in History - University Degree in Art History - Master of Art in Communication - Biking Guide - Professional Photographer and Teacher of Photography - I am a driver and I can transport up to 4 people in my personal car. For bigger groups, I can rent a van. - I am licensed to give tours in English, Spanish, French, Russian and Italian. None.

When we travel we always would like to bring back home memories, emotions and… wonderful photos! As a professional photographer and teacher of photography, I will give you a lot of tips on the different ways you can snap a building or a statue, on how to catch the best perspective and how to capture the most fascinating light. I will bring you to exclusive places from where the view of the monuments of Florence is absolutely unique (like the terrace on top of a building or a window just behind the Duomo) as well as hidden corners of the historical center most travellers don't even know about (the courtyard of a private palace or a little square concealing a wonderful Romanesque church). And, of course, I will also tell you stories and legends related to the spots we are going to photograph. This tour will allow you taking very original photographs (so different from the standard postcards everyone can buy…) reflecting the spirit of your unique travelling experience.
A walk in the city centre of Florence, including some of the highlights: - Duomo Square, - Ponte Vecchio, - Signoria Square . . . as well as some less known spots: - Santa Felicita, - Santi Apostoli, - Santa Trinita, - Santo Spirito. An alternative itinerary can be agreed with the travellers. Having this tour in the early morning or in the late afternoon (particularly in summer) is highly recommended in order to capture the best light.
