My goal??? To show you my city with passion and energy! Together we will discover the city behind the facades! Walk through hidden courtyards off the beaten track and discover secret treasures and experience the real Milanese atmosphere, the one which reveals itself only to the natives. I was born in Milan from a real Milanese family and it was here that I went to school. With my grandparents I would wander through the narrow streets by bike and of course see the opera at la Scala , so I had the opportunity to learn and appreciate the tradition hidden behind a busy and modern business city. My luck starts with my name, Fedra, which comes from the ancient Greek mythology. My favorite subject is art with its history and I'm continuously studying to deepen my knowledge about this fascinating world. After graduation I went to Germany for 5 years to study tourism and later I worked for 19 years for the German Airlines at the front desk. I love working with people from different countries. Like every Italian I love food culture. . This is quality of life! Good food and wine belong to your Milan experience an so. . to our tour! March 2017 license as tourist guide for Food and wine itineraries. I have been a licensed tourist guide for Lombardy since 2009, Member of GITEC Guide Italiane Turismo e Cultura Official guide for Armani Silos I am not a driver guide but I can arrange trasportation upon request.
