Ciao, I'm Stefano. A true Tuscan and Florentine local. Born and raised here in Tuscany, in a cold and sunny day of December 1982. I grew up with my grandparents in a place called Fucecchio just 30 mins away from Florence. I learned from my farmers grandparents, love for my land and passion for wines. My first grape harvest that I remember it was when I was 3 years old and of course I pressed grapes with my feet. Since than wines and farming are part of my life and . . . I am a Wine and Beer licesend SOMMELIER since in 2017. I believe in "mente santa and corpore sano", it means healthy mind in helthy body. The only way to really appreciate and taste food and wine. I love trail running and gravel bike riding, in my recent past I was competing in short distances, up to ultra marathons. My bike is called Hildebranda and my van is called Parceval. I have 2 litte girls of 12 and 8 years old. My wife is scottish so I speak english everyday for living. Now it has been 15 years or more that I live in florence, in different neighborhoods to experience the city at its best. For my last 12 years I lead tours in Tuscany, Cinque Terre and Chianti Classico. I did vespa tours and Fiat 500 tours, wine and food experiences and bike tours. I am a LICENSED EXPERT HIKING/BIKING GUIDE for hikes and adventures in the hills around Florence, Tuscany and Cinque terre. I love to organise also MULTIDAYS tours biking, hiking or driving in TUSCANY, UMBRIA and CINQUE TERRE. I love old pilgrimage roads, perfect fro gravel bike rides, so cool. I have organised multidays gravel biking trip like Florence to Rome, or Florence to Assisi or Assisi to Rome, amazing bike rides. I love jumping into new adventures and so I am also an ACTOR for tv commercials for toys , wines and anything I think it worth to advertise with my face. I did theater for few years and this helped me a lot to be a tv commercial actor. Last but not least I have a UNIVERSITY DEGREE in tourism Business with a Thesis in Social tourism - Impacts of tourism in different societies. One more thing I am funny :):):) Wine & Beer Sommelier FISAR Hiking Guide AIGAE University degree in Turism Business - UNIFI Special driving License KB for Taxi and NCC Outdoor first aid - AIGAE BLSD - AIGAE I am not a Licensed art city guide and I won't be able to guide you inside musuems or historical churches.

Incredible tour with Stefano! He picked us up at our AirBnB and took us out to some lovely wineries and even showed us a great wine bar for lunch and beautiful small town in Tuscany. We would absolutely recommend a tour with him if you're looking for a unique wine experience in Tuscany.

We just finished the first of 2 days we will be with Stefano. We were wine tasting and he did all of the prework to have the tours ready and having 4 different wineries that were all very different from each other. He could not be more helpful and he seems to know everyone in the Chianti Region. Great experience - Go with Stefano if you can do it He is great !
