Buongiorno! My name is Michela, welcome to my ToursByLocals page! I’m an enthusiastic and passionate tour guide and I work in Venice, Vicenza, Padova and Palladian villas. I was born and raised in Vicenza, a Unesco World Heritage Site, and my love for art probably started there when I was very little. That is why I decided to move to Venice to study Art History at the Ca’ Foscari University and to become a tour guide. I’ve been working as a licensed tour guide for 15 years now, and the experience I gained and the knowledge of my land allow me to offer quality tours, fun and engaging at the same time. Before being a guide I’m a friendly and curious person who likes stories, anecdotes, and legends too. Whenever I can I like going off the beaten path, to discover something unusual. I love to share my passion for Art and for the beauty of the region where I have the chance to live. I can’t help but be amazed every time I walk around Venice, the magnificence of the Renaissance paintings, the hills and the villas in the Land of Venice. My tours are for those arriving in my region for the first time, but also for those who have already been here many times and want to discover something different. I really look forward to get in touch with you and to welcome in the Land of Venice soon! More about me: Licensed Local Guide since 2010 Licensed Tour leader since 2013 Masters degree in History of Arts and Preservation of Cultural Heritage, 110/110 with honours - Bachelors of Arts degree in Preservation of Cultural Heritage, 110/110 with honours I also worked many years as a guide in important art exhibitions, I was the event manager of an Associations of Architects, and I also did an internship at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice where I worked mainly with kids.

Walking and sailing around Venice
Overview of your Venice tour
First time in Venice? Or have you already been many times and want to discover the city more deeply? Venice is made up of over 116 islands and to discover how it is made it is worth exploring the city by walking through its narrow streets and sailing through its canals. With this tour you could do both! Follow me to discover the hidden corners of the city, the most beautiful squares and streets and Piazza San Marco, with the most important buildings in Venice. Let’s then take a private water-taxi that will take us to discover the dense network of canals on which Venice develops. At the end of the tour we will sail along the Grand Canal, which has been defined as "the most beautiful street in the world" and where we will have the opportunity to see the most sumptuous buildings in the city, the market area, Rialto Bridge, the Accademia and Punta della Dogana. A journey through time and history through the most curious and incredible stories that Venice hides.
