Edoardo

Born and raised in Italy's Marche region, I have explored the country from north to south during travels and study periods away from home. I have lived part of my life in amazing cities such as Venice and Bologna, and have visited Rome a lot since I have family and friends there. I am an experienced trip planner for destinations all over Italy, from the breezy Cinqueterre in Liguria down to the sun kissed Amalfi coast. If you want someone to help you with all-encompassing guidance and make the best out of your trip to Italy, I will be most happy to help you!
Francesca
Bologna, Ravenna +6
👋 Hi, nice to meet you! My name is Francesca, I'm 28 years old and I live in a small town in the province of Ravenna. I speak English and French. 🎨 I'm an art expert because of my two degrees in Cultural Heritage and Visual Arts at the University of Bologna, where I've lived during my studies. This is the main city I chose to speak about in this platform because I've lived it with a student life's eyes (so pubs, restaurants, places to have fun, listen to some music, dance...) but also because I love art through that part of me too (museums, art galleries, history, traditions, culture...). ✈️ After University I've decided to take a break and I've moved to Canada where I've lived for more than one year, then I came back to become a Travel Designer thanks to a course in Milan. 🧳 This year I've also got the certification to be a Tour Leader with the goal to go with families, groups of friends or couples during their travels to show them more than they expect!
Lucrezia
Bologna, Modena +4
Ciao! I’m Lucrezia, a 21-year-old working student from Northern Italy and with a big passion for travelling and discovering new cultures. While I've explored different parts of the world, my heart always brings me back to Italy - its landscape, traditions and food. I have a deep love for nature, the outdoors, and sports, but I also enjoy good food and the small pleasures of everyday life. From scenic hikes and peaceful walks, to local cafés and hidden gems, I love sharing authentic experiences that make you feel truly connected to a place. Travelling with awareness and respect for the places you visit is something I deeply value, and I’d love to be your local reference to experience Italy in that same mindful and genuine way.
Emanuele
Milan, Como +10
Hi! I’m Emanuele, a passionate traveler and sports enthusiast with a love for discovering cities through their hidden corners and authentic experiences. While I’ve explored many places around the world, my heart is in Milan, a city I know inside out. I enjoy everything from iconic landmarks to quiet streets off the beaten path, and I love sharing those special spots that only a local can show. Whether it’s culture, food, history, or hidden gems, my goal is to create personalized experiences that make you feel truly connected to the city. I believe travel is about curiosity, discovery, and living a place fully (and I’d love to be your guide to experience Italy in a mindful, authentic way).
Corinna
Milan, Palermo
I’m a licensed Italian tour guide with over 20 years of experience, based in Milan and deeply connected to Palermo. I don’t just “know places”, I understand how they work, how they feel, and how to help you experience them in a way that makes sense for you. I’ve worked with international travelers, small groups, luxury clients, and independent explorers, so I know how different every journey can be. Milan is my daily life: I know its rhythms, its hidden corners, and how to navigate it beyond the obvious. Palermo is part of my roots and professional path, a city I know in depth, not only its beauty, but also its complexities. What most travelers miss? The balance between iconic highlights and the authentic experience of a place. I help you avoid stress, wasted time, and tourist traps, and instead build a trip that feels smooth, meaningful, and personal. I especially love working with curious travelers who want more than a checklist … people who want to understand, not just see.
Elena
Rome, Bari +8
Hi there! I'm Elena, and I've been calling Rome my home for nearly two years. While I'm an avid traveler who loves exploring new horizons, my favorite journey is the one I take every day through the winding streets of the Eternal City. Living here is a constant discovery. Even after two years, I never stop exploring Rome from different perspectives -blending its ancient history with its vibrant, modern soul. I know how overwhelming Rome can be for travelers, with so many 'tourist traps around every corner. I'm excited to share my personal database of cool finds with you-from hidden architectural gems and quiet courtyards to the best local events and spots that usually stay off the typical tourist radar. Whether you're looking for the perfect view, a unique cultural experience, or tips on how to navigate the city like a local, I've got you covered. Rome wasn't built in a day, and it certainly can't be seen in one-but with the right local insights, you can truly feel its magic. Let's explore the real Rome together!
