Hi, welcome to my profile! I am Cristina, and I live between the enchanting Euganean Hills and the wonderful city of Padua. The beauty of the places I was raised in shaped my passion and connection to history and art, and this inspired me to share those wonders with others. That’s why, in my more than 15 years of experience, my greatest commitment has been to transform standard visits into memorable experiences, where you’re not just a visitor but a fellow traveller. Whether we follow a classic itinerary or customize a tour built entirely around your specific interests and passions, you will discover the must-sees of Padua, as well as its most hidden and secret corners, its curious stories and traditions. We can admire together masterpieces like Giotto's Scrovegni Chapel or the Basilica of Saint Anthony with Donatello’s works, but also enjoy the vibrant Paduan life by exploring the world's oldest covered market, wandering through its historic food shops to taste local specialties, or relaxing while discovering the elegant 16th-century botanical garden.
