Tourist Guide in Siena

Great journeys have this wonderful, that their enchantment begins before the departure itself. The atlantes are opened, we dream about the cards. The magnificent names of unknown cities are repeated.

(Joseph Kessel)

For a long time the desire to travel, to discover distant places and ancient people has characterized my choices in life. After years of university studies as archaeologist I mixed all my great passions to become a tourist guide in 2011. Together with your desires and the love I have for my land and my vocation, I will create a true sensory experience.
As a “senese” I will lead you all throughout district, you will not leave without tasting a good dish of “pici” or even without having left your heart in a sunset on the hills of the Chianti.

You shouldn't want to miss any of this, therefore don’t hesitate to contact me!
