Hi! I am Roberto, born and raised in Siena, a city in the heart of the Tuscan region of Italy. I am a highly dedicated and professional driver. I am enthusiastic and curious, inspired by my work and delighted when discovering hidden corners and new realities with my clients. Human interaction and intuitive insight are the secret to doing this job well. I pride myself on being sensitive and available, listening carefully to travellers' needs and paying the added attention it takes to make a travel and dining experience outstanding. My personal interests have served as training for the work I take great pleasure in doing. I have travelled across four continents and thoroughly enjoy meeting people and exchanging ideas. I am an avid reader and live by my father's creed: "Read! Ignorance is your worst enemy. If you don't know history, you don't know who you are. If you don't know geography, you don't know where you are". Last, but not least is my passion for eating and drinking…and well! I am a "buon gustaio" (literally translated: "good taster") and have extensive experience thanks to my mother's cooking. Meals in my family were the "family briefing"; that moment when excellent food and better wine brought us together for a peaceful rundown of our day. As for the future, I am dedicated to deepening my knowledge and expertise, in particular in the areas of food and wine. I have learned countless things from my experience so far and am looking forward to unearthing new hidden treasures together on a day tour soon! Certified Driver with professional experience as a driver guide.

Overview of your Florence tour

No trip to Italy is complete without a visit to Pisa, home of Galileo Galilei and the Leaning Tower. The grandeur of this ancient, Maritime Republic is reflected in the Square of Miracles, where the tower is enveloped by the Cathedral, Baptistry and Monumental Cemetery. A climb to the top of the tower confirms the surrounding splendor. Discover Lucca, originally Etruscan, turned Roman colony in 180 B. C. The wealth of its history can still be found in a visit to the ruins of its Roman Amphitheater, the Guinigi Tower and a walk on the walls that once protected it from outside invasion. An enemy to Florence until 1328 and temporary site of exile to Dante, this charming town provides an enchanting backdrop to a meal, a walk and certain adventure. Let me take you on a tour of these beautiful cities and tell you the secrets of the two of the most important cities of my region.

Roberto did an outstanding job of getting us where we needed to go and allowing us time to see and do as much as we could in each spot. He made sure to give us historical information along with ideas on what was truly worth seeing in both Pisa and Lucca while allowing us to make our own decisions on what we choose to do. I can't say enough about how pleased we were with Roberto as our guide and the itineraries that we ended up choosing. Highly recommend any of the tours provided by Roberto.

Roberto was knowledgeable and very efficient. He shared with us the history of the region both present day and ancient. He took us to unique points of interest. His time was our time. He didn't rush us and allowed us as much time as we needed it. He was very friendly and was happy that we were interested in the history and culture of this region. He picked us up and dropped us off as originally requested.
