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.

The most beautiful Venetian city in Friuli
Overview of your Udine tour
Udine is a charming city in the heart of Friuli. It's the second largest in the region with 100, 00 inhabitants and its origins can be traced back to the middle ages, when thanks to its favourable geographical position it became an important trade center between the continental and mediterranean area. The first settlements were built on the sides and at the foot of a large and solitary hill nestled on a big plain, on top of which a castle fortress once stood. The long Venetian domination left its mark on the local architecture as one can clearly see in one of its most beautiful squares, Piazza Libertà. The historical centre is very well preserved and the roads are lined with beautiful old palazzi and stylish shops not to mention the typical osterie where you can stop for a taste of local wine, or "tajut" as the locals call it. For art lovers Udine also has a lot to offer: the Duomo, the civic museum in the castle, the Tiepolo gallery and a museum of modern art.
Your Udine tour itinerary
From Piazza 1 maggio through Manin Tower gate to Piazza Libertà. From there to the top of the castle hill, back to the piazza and to the Cathedral (Duomo). Passing the Town Hall (Palazzo D'Aronco) along Via Mercato Vecchio and Via Sarpi to reach Piazza San Giacomo. This basic tour does not include museums, this can be added upon request.
