Hi everyone! My name is Gianluca, I am an Italian citizen, son of the beautiful and sunny Sicily. I grew up and live today between two towns: Calatafimi-Segesta and Salemi, amongst the northwestern low hills and the wide Belice Valley, just in the middle of the province of Trapani. I am a very thorough and punctual person with big attention to details: that is why I love to work as a TOUR GUIDE. I have plenty of interests and an innate desire to learn new things, during my University career I graduated in Cultural Anthropology and Ethnology, I qualified in Art History, Architecture and Geography. Since 2007, I have been interested in tourism and cultural heritage because in my country we look at our Sicilian tradition as something that is precious and valued. I became a qualified tour guide after a hard qualification examination, comprising matters like history, archaeology, art of Sicily and tourist legislation. I am ready to show you the beauty of Sicilian landscapes, always changing during seasons, offering you thousand flavours and tastes from traditional cookery of the Island and providing itineraries both for individuals or groups, in Italian or English language. From Trapani to Selinus, Marsala to Segesta, Palermo to Agrigento there are infinite ways and places to explore and experience Sicily: I am really close to the Western area, very rich of ancient sites and I have always been very knowledgeable about Doric temples and Greek theatres in Sicily. For example, Segesta is easy to reach and it is little far from the town of Trapani. Discover with me the secrets and treasures inside every museum, town or tourist destination from West to East! I can take you through the countless roads of Sicily; I am a professional LICENSED DRIVER and I own authorised vans (up to 8 passengers) and luxury sedans (up to 3 passengers), insured according to Italian specific laws about public transportation. We can create or choose together your itinerary for you and your family, your friends and other travellers. Please get in touch! Let me be your expert Driver/Guide!
