I was born in Vicenza, a beautiful town in the magnificent Land of Venice, where I have been an official guide for more than 20 years. I love sharing my passion for the region where I live: in particular, as an Art Historian I enjoy manufacturing customized cultural tours among the Palladian villas and in the amazing city of Vicenza. Select one of the tours listed below or contact me, so we can design a taylor-made one just for you. For me, it is not just a guide's knowledge that makes a tour successful, but also their personality and sensitivity to your needs and wants. Let yourself be guided with a smile.

Villa Barbaro and Villa Emo both in interiors and exteriors
Overview of your Venice tour
The tour starts in Piazzale Roma in Venice, where your driver and your guide will meet you and pick you up. Then we reach villa Barbaro in Maser. There you explore the rooms of the world renown Villa Barbaro with an art historian at your side: Andrea Palladio and Paolo Veronese were able to create one of their most admired masterpieces here, and its arcane frescoes deserve an appropriate description. Between nature and architecture, the culture of the Venetian villas is at its best in this area: you'll see an amazing Palladian house surrounded by a unique scenery and enriched by its ancient vineyards. Upon request, private spaces can be open and a wine tasting or light lunch can be organized in the villa. After a short drive we reach villa Emo, which is a haven of peace and one of the most iconic Palladian countryhouses. The tour ends in Venice where the driver will drop you off.
