Ciao everyone, My name is Eleonora, nice to meet you (virtually for now)! I was born just outside Florence, and I have always been fascinated by its marvelous piazzas and its great artists, therefore I decided to study Art History at the University of Florence. I spent a few years immersed in the history of the city, but I also studied the rest of Italy. I travelled all over my country to discover its infinite treasures: from the great inventions of the ancient Romans, to the traces left by the so called barbarians, from the flourishing of medieval towns with their beautiful Cathedrals and town halls, to the birth of the Renaissance followed by the golden age of the Papacy. I have put together the stories of Italy's cities and towns, the lives of the artists and the history of the country, and finally I have weaved the big picture using all these smaller pictures. I have published essays about art and history, but now I do what I like the most: share my knowledge about the beauties of my country with travellers to help them understand what they are seeing. I have been working as a tour guide since 2010 in the two cities that I consider home: Florence and Rome. I have created tours that include some of the "must-sees", but there is always so much more to discover. I would be happy to customize an itinerary for you, according to your needs and desires. My tours are fun, engaging, informative and interactive. You will learn a lot of information and listen to great stories, but all in an easy-going, smiley way! The basic price is the same whether it is for 1 person or 10 people, however for those tours that include a food tasting or entrance tickets, the total price will increase according to the number of people. I am looking forward to walking with you through the streets of Rome to make the City and its art come to life. Ciao for now I am a Licensed Local Tour Guide. I have a Master's degree Cum Laude in Art History from the University of Florence. I also work as a Tour director for various agencies I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver

Overview of your Rome tour

Step into the heart of Ancient Rome and embark on a thrilling journey through time. This tour immerses you in the Ancient Roman Forum, where temples, arches, and marketplaces reveal the stories of emperors, citizens, and legendary events. We won’t go inside the Colosseum, admiring it from the outside to skip the crowds—but a visit to the Colosseum can be added upon request, depending on ticket availability. Through interactive storytelling, myths, and fascinating anecdotes, the ruins come alive for kids and adults alike, turning history into a vivid, unforgettable experience.

Elenora was fantastic for our tour of the Colosseum, Palatine Hill, and the Roman Forum. She was punctual, organized, and clearly understood exactly what we hoped to get out of the experience. She guided us effortlessly through the crowds and lines, kept the pace perfect, and shared fascinating insights, hidden spots, and details we would have missed on our own. Her knowledge of Roman history was outstanding, and she brought everything to life with poise, flexibility, and enthusiasm. Our three hours with her flew by — we easily could have spent five. I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an unforgettable Rome tour.

Eleonora provided the perfect tour for us. Prior to booking we exchanged a few messages on what our small group wanted and she put together a tour that met all of our wishes. She is knowledgeable and very good at imparting just the right amount of information. We enthusiastically recommend her for others.
