Hello, I am Tullia, a tour guide based in Padua. I grew up amidst the serene waters of the Venetian lagoon and the rich history of Padua, which has profoundly shaped my outlook on life. The fusion of natural beauty and cultural heritage in Veneto has instilled deep appreciation for this region's unique tapestry in me. Inspired by the old University of Padua, centre of knowledge and innovation, as well as by the awe-inspiring frescoes by Giotto in the Scrovegni Chapel, I am driven by a thirst for intellectual curiosity and a profound appreciation for artistic beauty. With a deep-rooted passion for slow travel and a genuine desire to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds, I am dedicated to sharing the magic of Padua and Veneto region with others. Through my work, I strive to provide guests with a gateway to the soul of this region, allowing them to immerse themselves in its art, architecture, history, and culinary treasures—a transformative journey that encapsulates the timeless allure of Veneto. Please note that even if my calendar is full, you can still contact me and I'll be happy to help you or provide suggestions. I can arrange luxury transportation in a Mercedes with a professional driver. For easy communication on the day of the tour, I suggest downloading WhatsApp on your smartphone.

Step into a world where nature and history intertwine on this immersive tour through Padua’s most captivating green spaces. One of them is Prato della Valle, a masterpiece of Enlightenment-era design with its elegant canal, historic statues, and vibrant greenery. Another one is the Orto Botanico, the world’s oldest university botanical garden, where I'll uncover its vital role in medicine and science amid rare and exotic plants. But besides green spaces, we'll also visit the Basilica of Santa Giustina, home to the relics of St. Luke the Evangelist, where breathtaking frescoes and sacred history create a truly awe-inspiring experience. Join me on this unforgettable journey through Padua’s green heart, where history, art, and nature come alive!
