CIAO! My name is Nicoletta, (Niki), I am a native of Tuscany, born and raised in Livorno, mother of two wonderful kids, with a passion for this magical terrain and its enchanting places. I love my job! I’ve been a professional driver since 2010, working largely with cruise passengers docking at the ports of Livorno and La Spezia. After working with a variety of established agencies in Tuscany for many years, I opened my individual one in 2014 so that I could share my personal way of visiting Italy’s iconic places with travelers wanting a genuine, “tours by locals” experience. I also wanted to offer up some of the hand-crafted tours I’ve developed over the years, incorporating such elements as boutique wineries, to travelers in search of a unique itinerary... cater to small groups looking for a fun and friendly tour that gives you the most bang for your touring buck. My service encompasses shore excursions from the port of Livorno and the port of La Spezia, as well as day trips from Florence. Exploring Italy’s amazing destinations with visitors and sharing my knowledge with those who love to discover new places is the reason I get out of bed in the morning! I would be delighted to show you around our beautiful land, where everything is ancient, but where everything awaits to be newly discovered together. - Professional Driver Guide - My van has the NCC special license which grants access to the restricted areas of historical city centers - Private customizable tours (I am a professional driver guide but I do not have a tour guide license, therefore I am not authorized to accompany you or provide information inside the museums) A PRESTO!

Step Back in Time: An Unforgettable Shore Excursion in Tuscany
Overview of your Livorno tour
Fall in love with Tuscany on a relaxed, heartwarming day trip to Volterra and San Gimignano: two of my favorite towns, rich in beauty, history, and local soul. We’ll begin in Volterra, a peaceful hilltop gem with deep Etruscan roots and breathtaking views. Wander its quiet alleys, discover local artisans shaping alabaster by hand, and feel the magic of a place where time seems to stand still. Then we’ll head through the rolling hills to San Gimignano, the “town of towers,” where medieval charm meets unforgettable scenery. Take your time to explore, sip a glass of Vernaccia, and enjoy world-famous gelato in a sunny piazza. I'm proud to share these places that mean so much to me... and to walk you through their stories, flavors, and unique atmosphere. Let me guide you through the heart of Tuscany, with warmth, passion, and the option to visit local wineries if you’d like to add a delicious twist to your day.
Your Livorno tour itinerary
- After a scenic 90-minute drive from Livorno, we’ll arrive in Volterra, a hilltop gem rich in Etruscan history and timeless beauty. Stroll through ancient stone streets, explore artisan alabaster workshops, and admire landmarks like the Roman theatre and Palazzo dei Priori. With its peaceful atmosphere and stunning views, Volterra feels like a step back in time. - Next, we head to San Gimignano, famous for its medieval towers and postcard-perfect charm. Wander its cobbled streets, enjoy award-winning gelato, browse artisan shops, and soak in the magical atmosphere of this UNESCO listed town. - Let me help you to customize your tour: if you wish, we can include a stop for a traditional Tuscan lunch and wine tasting at a beautiful countryside winery. It’s the perfect way to savor the flavors and beauty of Tuscany before heading back to the port.
