I belong to a Venetian family of documented ancient origins. After obtaining my Tourism High School diploma, I lived for two years in the United States where I collaborated with the US Department of the Interior in San Francisco, at the Golden Gate Recreation Area, for the translation into Italian of the documentation on Alcatraz Island. I then worked for a year as a cultural representative at EPCOT Center - Walt Disney World Co. in Orlando, Florida. Once back in Venice, I graduated with honors in History from Venice University Ca' Foscari, concentrating my studies on Venetian and Byzantine Art and History. In 2000 I became a Qualified Tourist Guide of Venice and the Venetian Villas. I love traveling and local cuisine, the sea, nature, animals, and 60s and 70s pop and rock. Over the years I dedicated myself to the promotion of initiatives aimed at the dissemination of Venetian culture and held lectures on Venice's History and Art for the UNESCO Campaign on safeguarding Venice, contributing to the restoration of two 15th and 19th-century paintings preserved in the local church of Santa Maria Formosa. I recently obtained a master's degree with honors in Economics and Management of Arts and Cultural Activities, studying in depth subjects related to the international law and the protection of cultural heritage, UNESCO and to sustainable tourism.

This tour will take you to a less popular and very genuine area of the Venetian Lagoon, to spend an unusual and very relaxing Venetian day. We will begin with a stop at the Lido for a drink on the beach side, enjoying the sea breeze and a view of the Adriatic. Then we will ride on the boat to reach the Island of Pellestrina, crossing the port of mouth where the waters of the Lagoon encounter those of the Sea. We will stop briefly at the small fishermen village of Pellestrina to see the village, and then continue on to Chioggia. There we'll take a walking tour which will include its famous fish market, one of the most important in Italy. After the tour, we will have an unforgettable lunch at a typical restaurant "chioggiotto" to enjoy the genuine local cuisine. You will then have some time at leisure to walk around and shop, and then we'll ride back to Venice relaxing and enjoying the calm of the Lagoon. You can be very casual, and even bring your bathing suit!
