Hi! I am Riccardo, photographer, art historian, surfer, traveler and of course, tour guide! I'm from Vicenza, a city one hour west from Venice and I've been living in Venice for a long time now: this city attracted me since the first time I visited it as a kid. Wandering around its alleys with my mum made me sense its magical atmosphere and immediately enchanted me. My bond with Venice grew stronger over the years, so I couldn't help but moving here as soon as I could. Venice is my home, it has been for a long time. I love it and our relationship is pretty intense — sometimes too much. Being a tour guide helps me share these emotions with my guests. Venice has many beautiful things: art, history and beauty everywhere, but also lesser known, underground curiosities. I want you to discover them through my food, photo and walking tours to help you to get the best from your experience in this magical place. Being in love with this city is what makes the difference from simply being an expert of it, know its soul is the only way to get "her" essence, and what I want is just to help everyone to achieve this magic connection. - Official Tour Guide License - Official Tour Leader License - Art History Bachelor's degree - Economics and Management of Art Master degree - Professional Photographer - Architectural Restorer none

Overview of your Venice tour
Discover the hidden treasures of Venice with my unique tour! Let’s start from the heart of Venice, the iconic St. Mark's Square. Wander through the iconic landmarks, the breathtaking Basilica, majestic Doge's Palace, and the legendary Caffè Florian, Europe's oldest coffee house. Immerse yourself in the rich history and charm of Venice with this unforgettable adventure but visiting also its main Square where the locals never go! From here we are moving to the real, hidden Venice, leading you to less touristic locations off the beaten track. Hidden spots full of interesting curiosities, architecture and culture. My aim is to let you enjoy Venice in the best way. I'll take care of making you save time and money during your stay in order to get most from your time here through my recommendations. Through a nice and relaxing walk around the city calle, you'll feel and behave more and more as a real Venetian - and this is going to help you enjoy Venice in the best way. Let's discover Venice together!
