Hello everybody, I'm Gaia . My name means happy and actually I'm very happy because I do the most beautiful job in the world: I'm a tour guide! I have a deep passion for art and in particular for painting. After classical/art studies I graduated in Law. But culture and history remained my passion. Thanks to my parents I had a childhood immersed in the history of art, from the ancient Roman and Greek myths to the contemporary and modern art. This upbringing has transformed me in a guide specialized in museum. To guarantee you a high-quality service I decided to follow a course to become an official guide in The Netherlands and I'm proud to be a member of this association. During my study I could deepen my knowledge of subjects such art, history and the famous water management. I'm a big fan of the famous Golden Age period and the many things that developed during that time: the 17th century. In particular, the beautiful paintings by Rembrandt and other great artists which are a true highlight. I love to show people around and to let them fall in love with Amsterdam and the the other wonderful places in The Netherlands. But my opinion is that a tour is not only share knowledge about history, art and coulture but create a meaningful and personal experience. I love to build a genuine connection with travellers! I love to create memorable experiences for everyone involved in a tour: also for kids and teenagers to whom I feel particulary connected sharing with them my enthusiasm in a light-hearted way. I'm particulary suitable for group of friends, family tours but also for travellers with particulars need and attention as people with limited mobility. I have experience of touring with wheelchair users both in Amsterdam and its most popular museum. -Licensed guide: member of official guide organization in The Netherlands. -Diploma after a course by institute Roc in Amsterdam to become guide in The Netherland. -Museum guide -Municipality license to guide in the city center of Amsterdam -Licensed Journalist in Italy -Bachelor diploma degree in Law. -Driving license I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences

Amsterdam in miniature, but quieter and probably easier to get around…It's Haarlem, one of the other gems of The Netherlands. This picturesque city is just 15 minutes by train from Amsterdam and is the second oldest city in The Netherlands, in the 17th century it was a scene of important artistic activity and the residence of many painters including the Golden age's master, Frans Hals, to whom the museum that bears his name is dedicated. Haarlem is also a vibrant shopping city with unique boutiques in the lovely little streets that surround the main square or 'Grote Markt'. Not only that: Haarlem is also a flower city!: in fact it is very near to the Bollenstreek, the most famous bulb growing region in The Netherlands. Let's have a nice tour throughout its medieval center starting from the historic heart of the city: de grote markt where we can admire the magnificent basilica dating from the XIV century, the old city hall and the Meat Hall, once the municipal slaughterhouse and home of the butcher's.
Gaia G was the best guide for our excursion to Haarlem. I would recommend her tour of Amsterdam too. You know when you have perfect confidence in someone? That’s how we felt with Gaia. She showed us hidden gems and shared relevant history with us. Her tour was the highlight of our trip!
Gaia is a wonderful guide! She is very informative and make the tour so much fun! She is rated number 1 on our choice of guides when we tour again in the Netherlands!
Very, very pleasant! She's a problem solver and she know so much history. She can adapt to anything as long as you're flexible also. A great guide!
-Let's tour throughout its medieval center starting from the historic heart of the city: de grote markt where we can admire the magnificent basilica dating XIV sec. the old city hall and the Meet Hall, once the municipal slaughterhouse and the butcher's guild. We will visit this attractions from the outside, but in case for example you would like to see the basilica we can cetrenly enter (paying the ticket) -Let's visit the famous 'hofjes' , enclosed courtyards gardens where used to be housed poor, unmarried and widowed women. Here we can have a look from the inside. -And than go to the monument in honor of all the Dutch people living in Haarlem taken an killed in the concentration camp during the Second world war.

I suggest to go by train (just 15 minutes far from Amsterdam). But it would be also possible to book a taxi.
