Hello! My name is Cristina and I'm a well - experienced tour guide since 2000, and besides, I am a tour leader since 2004. I use to take groups all around my wonderful island. I live in Lipari, the largest of the seven Aeolian islands in the north-eastern Sicily. I like travelling and I'm a trekking lover. I have a degree in Foreign Languages from the University of Messina, I speak English and French very well but I also speak Spanish fluently. From 2015 to 2021, I've been the president of the Association of Tourist guides called "Guide Turistiche Eolie Messina Taormina". I really enjoy doing my job and the advantage of it is changing itineraries every day: one day can be a guided tour of Lipari, so the typical magic condition of a little island or the day after, the fascinating environment of a visit to Mount Etna, the big volcano. Sicily is rich in archaeological sites, wonderful churches, small villages to discover or cities with an enormous artistic heritage. I enjoy illustrating the treasures of my region to anyone who decides to visit it. Not only history and monuments but also traditions, gastronomy and everyday life. I am lucky to guide travellers to the discovery of outstanding places such as the Aeolian Islands, Messina, Taormina, Etna, Catania and many more. Explore Sicily as a local, let's do it toghether! Group or individual visits, classic or tailor-made itineraries? I wait for you to show you the wonders of my island. I have a degree in foreign languages. I am a qualified tourist guide since 2000. I am a qualified Tour Leader since 2004 President of the association "Guide Turistiche Eolie Messina Taormina" from 2015 to 2021 I am not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Lipari tour
I will accompany you to discover the highlights of the most interesting Aeolian Island, Lipari: archaeology, natural beauty and local traditions! We'll stroll down the narrow streets around Marina Corta, Lipari's little fishing port, to reach the fortified citadel, commonly known as the Castle. We will see the major monuments in town, such as the Cathedral, dedicated to St. Bartholomew, patron saint of the archipelago and the outstanding Archaeological Museum of Lipari. We'll admire from above the little harbour of Marina Corta the exclusive heart of the island and the stunning panoramas all around us. Let me also invite you to do what I really enjoy the most: sit on a terrace, taste the traditional cookies and relax! We will have a memorable experience in a small café to taste the Malvasia, our local sweet wine, and the delicious biscuits made with sesame seeds. If you prefer, you can also enjoy a cannolo, a tube-shaped pastry shell stuffed with a sweetened filling of whipped ricotta cheese or a granita.
