Ciao! Buongiorno! I'm Alex, a licensed guide and travel planner from the beautiful Veneto region Come with me and ENJOY A DIFFERENT DAY off the beaten path! Local and immersive experiences, fun and a relaxed atmosphere are the right recipe for a perfect day: this is what I want to share with you! I really love when you can have a good mix of the italian outdoors and unique local experiences: no crowds, no rush and the feeling you are really immersing into local life. To be honest I think this is the better way to discover a territory. Why to hire me as your local guide? 1) REAL LOCAL GUIDE: I have been living in the Veneto region almost all my life so you can be sure you will have a real local guide. 2) OFF THE BEATEN PATH: I'm a very curious person, an explorer and a nature lover: I love exploring, trying new experiences and looking for the hidden gems of our territory to give travellers something different from the standard group tours. 3) GREAT CONNECTIONS AND EXPERTISE ABOUT TYPICAL PRODUCTS As a former agriculture engineer and organic farming expert, I really know about local food & wine and along my career I got to meet many farmers producing unique products in the most charming and beautiful places of Italy. 4) UNIQUE COMBINATION OF EXPERIENCES What about a glass of wine in a beautiful organic agriturismo, a tour of the Dolomites with great insights about nature and history, a cooking class in a farm or meeting a local handicraft master after visiting an ancient villa in the countryside? 5) EXPERTISE IN MULTIDAY TOURS PLANNING AND GUIDING! Why only one day while you can have a full experience like 2 days visiting the Prosecco hills and the Dolomites? Or 3-4 days to see all sides of the dolomites, with mountains and castles and maybe enjoy some hiking and biking too This is why the motto of my tours is "Enjoy a different day"! And the Veneto region has it all! History with the famous villas by Palladio, middle age castles or World war one trenches and tunnels in the mountains Culture with local handicraft masters ateliers Food and wines with its typical products like the Asiago cheese, amarone and Prosecco wines or the famous "baccalà" fish Nature with the incredible Dolomites mountains, the hills around Vicenza and Padua or the picturesque Garda lake My goal is to give you not just a tour but a unique & custom experience where you can feel yourself like a local, discovering hidden places, meeting local people, tasting typical dishes and , what I love the most, bringing back home great memories. My tours are for everyone, You don't need to be an adventurer or a backpacker, you just need to be curious enough. The tours you can find here are just some examples: they can be completely customized to your desires or for larger groups. Please, feel free to Get in touch for more infos Ciao from Italy! NB.

Overview of your Venice tour

Dolomites! I'm in love with these mountains where I spent years hiking, exploring and guiding people from all over the world! They are reknown as some of the most beautiful mountains in the world and also a Unesco world heritage site. This tour, my best rated one, is a right mix between some touristic spots like the famous town of Cortina and some more peaceful ones to appreciate the essence of the area: - Enjoy stunning mountains and lakes, incredible views, great food at the mountain huts - Explore the area with an expert guide showing you around and taking you to the right places to get the best pics ever! - Enjoy picturesque mountain villages and the great views around the small town of San Vito - Take one of the most panoramic and iconic Dolomites cablecars and, if you want. also enjoy a short easy walk at the top, surrounded by a crazy 360 degrees Dolomites view! Every corner is worth a stop. No doubt you will get long lasting memories

We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Alex. It was so refreshing to get away from the city and see the natural beauty of the Dolomites. Alex was very knowledgably about the area and its history. We were so glad that we hired Alex as a private guide. We could explore at our own pace and learn about the area and life in Italy. Thanks for a wonderful day.

Incredible day with Alex. He was so kind, knowledgeable, and wonderful with our kids. The Dolomites region is breathtaking and Alex knew all the best stops, including great coffee/pastry and lunch spots. It was a special day and we’ll keep fond memories of our time with Alex.

Alex was great. He customized the tour to fit our needs and was great at adjusting when there were some unexpected issues we couldn’t control. Would highly recommend any tour he does and I’ll definitely reach out to him next time I’m back in the area.

Had a wonderful day driving through the dolomites. Alex was very informative and told stories about the area. We made enough stops to take gorgeous photos. Had lunch outside admiring the views. It was quite busy on the road with bikers and there was roadworks going on due to olympics next year but we trudged along.
