Ciao and welcome to Firenze! You can call me Giuly :) As a graduate of Italian Language and Literature, I was already in love with Italian language, literature, culture, history and of course food! My admiration and fascination led me to Firenze, this amazing cradle of Renaissance, thirty years ago and since then I have not stopped feeling the excitement of living in this city for a moment. Now, let me share this excitement with you by taking you to every corner in this amazing city. Let's explore the hidden stories, witness the points where Renaissance started and have a journey through time. On top of my bachelor's degree, I studied Tourism and Marketing in this beautiful city which also led me to start working as a translator and interpreter of Italian to Turkish in many different fields with different entities including business corporations, political institutions, government offices and judicial institutions. Keeping all these, I wanted to add more to my list by completing a special training to have my license as an authorized tour guide of the city of Florence. As I have the pleasure of working as a professional tour guide in Florence and Tuscany for 12 years, I am ready to share my experience, joy and make you feel the Mediterranean magic of this enchanted city and area. Please feel free to contact for customised tours based on your interests including; Florence City tour, Tuscany cities tour, wine tasting, concerts, operas, events, local festivals, antique markets, gourmet tours, local food festivals, olive oil tasting, local food and other shopping point of interests and many more. I really look forward to meeting you and enjoy history, art, food, culture and hidden gems together. - Licensed Tourist Guide (authorization no: 2/2011of 02/03/2011 - Bachelor's Degree in Italian Language and Literature / University of Istanbul - Professional Translator / Interpreter (Italian, Turkish) - Expert Diploma in Tourism Marketing / Region of Tuscany -I am not a professional driver.
