Welcome to Veneto! I 'm Sabrina and I am an authorized and passionate tourist guide, working in the Province of Venice and Treviso. I've been working in tourism since 2005 and being a tour guide has always been my dream. It goes without saying, that I love Italy as well as the region where I was born, Veneto. I am very proud of being Italian and taking tourists around to discover the treasures of my home land is most rewarding indeed. I have always been fascinated by the past, because the past provides the insight needed to uncover the reasons for the present. After my diploma in Tourism, I took a Master Degree in Language Sciences, focusing on Germanic Philology. I wanted to satisfy my curiosity by discovering historical works and languages, following the path of the history of human kind. I took many exams about Venetian history, and I also studied for a semester at the Warwick University in the UK and at the Venice International University. I am now studying to get a second Degree in Art History. These in short are but a few of the reasons why I am passionate about my work: I love observing past artwork and understanding its history, as well as sharing my knowledge with others. I try to pass on this enthusiasm of mine to everyone I meet. In this way they too can see the world with wonder, just as I do.

The perfect tour for first timers in Venice
Overview of your Venice tour
You have just arrived in Venice and don't know what to do and where to go. This is the right tour for you! I am an experienced tour guide and I've been working in Venice since 2005. I know every hidden corner of this place. During the tour I will not also highlight the city history and take you to the main sights, but also I will also share with you useful information about how to move around, what to see and where and what to eat (that's one of the most important things!) We will meet in Campo S. Giacometto, next to the Rialto Bridge. I'll take you around the area of Rialto where you will see the local market (only in the morning) and the beautiful shops and bacari (local traditional cafes). We will then cross the Rialto bridge and go towards the house of Marco Polo. And then through the tiny picturesque streets in the Castello district to reach finally St. Mark's Square. The walking tour can be personalized. I can take wherever you want.

There is nothing better than getting a tour of Venice than from someone who has grown up in Venice. Sabrina is a wealth of knowledge. I learned a lot during our tour about the history of Venice. I have a different perspective of Venice now.

Sabrina was a great guide to Venice. Very knowledgeable and personable. Was able to patiently answer all our many questions. We would highly recommend her to others.
Your Venice tour itinerary
-Meeting place in Campo S. Giacometto, in front of the church of St. Giacomo di Rialto, next to the Rialto Bridge (this is just a suggestion. I can also pick you up at the hotel where you are staying and start the walking tour from there). -The itinerary will go through the area of Rialto, then we will cross the Rialto bridge, we will walk along the Fondaco dei Tedeschi (and climb to the top if it is open!), through the Castello district and finally St. Mark's square. -This is just a suggestion because the tour can be personalized according to your needs.
