Buongiorno! My name is Simonetta, I'm a licensed Tour Guide in Friuli Venezia Giulia with almost twenty years experience. I was born in a charming little village in the western part of the region, which I have also included in my tours' list. Friuli Venezia Giulia is set between the coast of the Adriatic Sea and the Alps and boasts a surprising variety of natural and urban environments, rich in unique traditions, languages and flavours, which originate from its peculiar position, at the crossroads between different worlds. I'd like to share with you all the good things that our land has to offer: beautiful sceneries, history, art, good food and excellent wines, and all that mostly far from the crowds! To me, giving a tour is not just showing things and giving facts and figures, but rather help visitors plunge into the spirit of a place by making them aware of past history and present way of living. If, at the same time I can impart on them my passion for this wonderful part of Italy, then my goal is reached. In my tours I like to include a tasting of genuine local products whenever possible, as involving all the senses is part of the experience. Of course my suggestions can be tailored to suit your needs and desires. I'm also available to help you with accomodation, if needed. Just write to me and together we can craft the perfect tour for you.

Just about one hour from Venice, Pordenone is a lively town of about 50, 000 inhabitants in the south west of Friuli. Its highlight is the beautiful historical centre that stretches along a main street located on a low hill, very close to a navigable river. It was once a very imporant river port connecting the mainland with the Adriatic sea. Known as "urbs picta" (latin for painted city) because of its elegant medieval palaces whose facades still bear extensive traces of the original frescoes The town hall and the church with the beautiful campanile can boast almost 800 hundred years of history and the latter hosts, among other things, the works of our most celebrated painter "Il Pordenone". Under the porticoes lots of different stylish shops some of which still offer top quality classical style Italian clothes and shoes. Last but not least a wide variety of Italian style bars where you can stop for an aperitivo, a taste of San Daniele ham or a delicious chocolate treat in one of the oldest pastry shops.
-The Adam and Eve Bridge on the river Noncello, St. Mark's cathedral, -The Town Hall, the frescoed palaces along the main street, Piazza XX Settembre, Piazza della Motta -Stop at a local bar for aperitivo or coffee and pastry.
