What do you think is necessary to be a guide? Experience? License? Knowledge? Of course, they are more than important. I have been working as a tour guide for more than 25 years and I still think that Passion and Love are fundamental in this work. Without Passion and Love is not possible to explain anything. I consider myself very lucky because I still have the passion and the enthusiasm I had when I started this job and I am still surprised by the Beauty that surrounds me in all the Cities where I work: Venice, Verona, Vicenza, Padua, Treviso, Rovigo, and by the perfect and harmonic Architecture of all the Palladian and Venetian Villas. . . I think that a good guide has to love her land first. I am a curious traveller, I read a lot, I like music and I play the Celtic Harp, an instrument with an unbelievable power to heal me when something goes wrong and I feel down. When I do not work, I like travelling with my kids to find other treasures in Italy and in the World. The tours in my list are only basic tours and can be all customized according to your interests, requests and needs. If you have been already in the Veneto Region, do not be afraid to visit it again . . . . I can help you to discover new unexpected treasures . Choose an area that you would like to visit and contact me: I will customize your tour and give you the best solution. I work with professional drivers who can accompany us during the tour into different areas of the Veneto, villages and towns of good wine and food, and in the Venetian countryside not far from big cities in which it is possible to spend a different and amusing day, enjoying Arts and Crafts, Nature, local Cuisine and much more. My tours usually include everything and I can provide you with all information you may need about time, sites to visit, restaurants, museums, etc. A tour with me is a real occasion to discover the Region in a different way, not only because I am an experienced and professional guide, but also and above all, I work with passion and love for my land. I know the territory, even the smallest hidden treasures, and I know how to avoid the crowds, lines and noise. I also know how to make a tour extraordinary and memorable. It will be your personal, unique tour…and you will have another reason to come back to visit my Region. You have just to join me in this extraordinary visit of well known places and hidden treasures. Choose one or more tours from my list and contact me: it can be transformed into your new exclusive experience of Italy. Graduate of Ca'Foscari University, Venice. Degree in Japanese Culture and Literature. Licensed guide for Vicenza, Verona, Venice, Padua, Treviso, Rovigo and Palladian Villas. National guide (guide of Italy). Expertise is in Paintings, Palladian Architecture, Modern Art and Gardens. Proficiency certification for English.

Overview of your Venice tour

This is a perfect tour for people who are coming to Venice and staying at least two days. During the tour we will visit the famous sites like St. Mark's Square and the Doges' Palace, the Scuola Grande di San Rocco where we can still admire the masterpieces by Tintoretto, and also wonder through secret itineraries. Besides we will "dive" into the magic atmosphere of an "evergreen" city. Through my eyes you will discover monuments and places in a new way, you will enjoy the Beauty of a city that is floating on water as a "promised land" that can fullfill all our dreams. . . .

We spent 2 wonderful days touring Venice with Deborah. My wife and I had both been to Venice before so she was very happy to customize the tour however we wanted. She knows everything about the city's history, art, architecture and made this trip special and memorable. Deborah also had several great suggestions for our other free time in the city. We would recommend her to any other visitors without hesitation.

Deborah was fantastic ! She helped us with additional needed arrangements besides the tour with her. She was extremely prompt in responding to all the questions we had about our time in Venice. We are indebted to her for all her help and for going the "extra mile" to assure that we had the best time in Venice. Our family would highly recommend Deborah to anyone wishing to have an extraordinary time while in Venice.

Deborah was such a wonderful guide during our tour of Venice. She is very knowledgeable and really lets you as the client set the agenda for the day. We like regular breaks in sideway cafes between all the important sites and she was quick to accommodate us and keep educating us while we took in the the sidewalk cafe culture. She is a lovely person. We enjoyed our tour with her very much and we will definitely use her again on our next trip to Venice. One of the best guides we've ever had!
