Benvenuti! I'm Daniela, a passionate local guide specializing in Venice, Vicenza and the stunning Palladian Villas. I offer a variety of tailored tours across the Veneto Region, catering to first-time visitors as well as returning travelers eager to explore hidden gems beyond the usual tourist routes. My goal is to create a truly personalized experience, unveiling the beauty, history, and fascinating stories that make this Region so unique. With a deep love for history and fine arts, I have spent years immersing myself in the rich heritage, traditions and folklore of Veneto. I hold a specialization in contemporary Venetian history and have pursued a master's degree at Venice University, focusing on the history and art of this extraordinary city. As a true local, I take great pride in sharing my passion with my guests. Whether it’s a sightseeing adventure through my favorite spots, an off-the-beaten-path exploration, or a delightful food and wine tour, I craft experiences that go beyond the ordinary. Being a true "foodie," I love discovering authentic restaurants where you can savor traditional Italian flavors. I love working with independent travelers, building a friendly and informal connection with my guests. Flexibility is key, I enjoy adapting itineraries to match their interests, sometimes uncovering secret gardens or hidden gems along the way. In the end, every tour becomes a unique and personalized experience, shaped by the mood and passions of my guests. I truly love what I do, and I consider myself incredibly lucky to share my passion with others.
