Home of the Stars, Malibu and Santa Barbara Tour

My name is Simona. I am originally from Rome, Italy and now I live with my family in Orange County, California. I have worked in the tourism industry for over thirty years gaining experience as a travel planner and tour manager leading groups of American and foreign visitors through points of historical, cultural, and regional interest. My career started in the Caribbean, where I resided for three years before moving to the United States. I then specialized in conducting tours in the Southwestern and Northwestern areas of the United States through cities, National Parks, and Native American reservations. I have in-depth knowledge of seventeen states in the US. Also, I have a lot of experience in providing private services for VIP clients of different nationalities, including Italian and Spanish-speaking clientele. I would describe myself as a great communicator, detail-oriented, organized, cordial, reliable, consistent, and punctual. My goal is to make you feel at home and share my knowledge with you. I am very passionate about my work and I feel lucky to be able to meet new and interesting people. Living in Southern California is like being in a movie. There are many hidden parts of Los Angeles and surrounding areas that I would like to share with you while providing anecdotes, funny stories, and historical backgrounds. Let me guide you through all the famous spots while inebriated by the ocean breeze.
