Welcome to Venice, the beautiful and vibrant city that has been captivating visitors for centuries. Home to a rich history, renowned art, and sumptuous cuisine, Venice has something for everyone. I have been creating memorable experiences for my guests for a while now. My passion is to share with you the unique secret gems of this stunning city - the hidden places discovered by locals and lost in time. My range of activities includes private walking tours through cobblestone streets to boat rides through stunning canals, perfect for romantic evenings, to take you off the beaten track into secluded areas only known to locals. I also offer organised gondola tours along and guided visits to ancient sites and galleries. Furthermore, I can provide suggestions to taste traditional Venetian recipes or for exhibitions about Venetian jewellery or glass-blowing techniques; all within the comfort of a friendly atmosphere, as well as customized packages tailored to your preferences. I can offer excellent knowledge of my homeland's culture, geography and traditions, being a passionate promoter of Venice's natural beauty and its cultural landmarks, inviting visitors to appreciate its charm just like locals do. I promote socially responsible tourism with respect towards nature while giving travellers an authentic European experience. Not only that, but I am always available to help create extraordinary memories during your stay in Venice, so join me on one of my many activities. A few words about me. I've been a teacher of English in high schools since 1987 when I moved to Venice from Naples, where I was born and raised. I developed an interest in modern Architecture and Design when I started teaching at the Venice Art School. Hence, besides the language, I teach my students the history of some notable buildings, especially in Venice, so they can see and enjoy them first-hand. Beginning April 25th, 2024 a new access fee will be implemented for visitors to Venice. While some visitors are exempt from this fee, others will be required to pay. For detailed information, please visit the official website: https://cda. veneziaunica. it/en Please contact me for a customised tour or if you have any questions about my tours! Docent at the Olivetti Showroom since 2017. Research and management of the guided tours for the Danieli Hotel on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the house in 2022. I do not have a license to give tours of the Doge's Palace, St. Mark's Basilica, the State Museums or the Civic Museums.
