Ciao, I am Giuseppe . Welcome in Tuscany!!! I am specialized in shore trips, walking city tour, day trips outside of the city and I am always positive, passionate and , above all, flexible . I was born and raised in Florence and I am never tired of discovering the secrets of my city, where Dante, Leonardo and Michelangelo have lived. Secrets that I want to share with you!! I consider myself lucky, because in Italy and my region I am surrouded by beauty and love for beauty heps us to live better. This is the reason, because 17 years ago, after traveling a lot, I started this wonderful job as driver-guide that allowed me to discover every corner of Tuscany. In these years I have tried to combine my earlier career with my best interest by studying and obtaining the titles of licenced enoturistic guide, licenced guide of Florence, Pisa, Siena and its provinces that allows me to cover an immense extension of my region to present it in an informative and entertaining style. My pastimes are swimming and walking for miles in the early morning in the parks of Florence or in its narrow streets when you still smell the scent coffee. Almost every morning, when I don't work, I explore a new town, a city crossing unknown streets, rediscovering the atmoshere of the past. I love to studying the wine-growing areas, but above all the history of art. My personality always tends to customize your tours and to make you perceive, through my explanations , the atmosfhere, the history and evolution of the cities and territory where we will walk or drive. With my van I can come and pick you up everywhere in Tuscany and especially in the ports of Livorno and La Spezia and we will cross the rolling hills surronded by cypresses, vineyards, olive trees and sunflowers. So if you want to feel a little Tuscan, let's go !!!! (Note!!!

Overview of your Florence tour

Ok, I am a licensed guide of Florence, but most importantly I was born and raised in this city; I have lived among this architecture, this art and this is what I want you to perceive when we will walk through that maze of charming streets and squares where you can still smell the atmosphere of old times and where we can stop in a local cafe for a cappuccino. We will discover the fundamental monuments that have written the history of this old capitalistic Republic of Europe and especially how, in the 15th century, a family of bankers, the Medici, knew how to stimulate, with their philosopher, geniuses as Brunelleschi, Michelangelo and Leonardo. Those who have begun to investigate, to apply Greek-Roman classicism to the arts creating harmony, three-dimensionality, Renaissance. . . The same authors of the so-called "school of the world" that we will meet not only around monuments, but especially in the greatest museums of the city: Academy and Uffizi. This is what I want you to feel amazed by!
