About Tour Guide Al F.

Al, Authorized Tour Guide in Venice


Hello! I’m Al, an authorized tour guide based in Venice, and I’m passionate about sharing the beauty and rich history of this incredible city. I was born in Pretoria, South Africa, I had the privilege of growing up in a diplomatic family, which allowed me to travel widely and experience different cultures from an early age.

I hold a Master's degree in Administration from the American University, which has given me a strong foundation for both my academic and professional pursuits. However, my true calling lies in guiding people through history, art, and culture.

Having worked as a tour guide in various countries and across Italy for many years, I’ve developed an intimate knowledge of Venice’s art, architecture, and stories. Guiding visitors here is not just my job – it’s my passion. Venice is my home, and I am deeply connected to its history and its glory.

As a historian and author of several guides and articles, I aim to make each tour an enriching experience, blending historical insights with a genuine love for this magnificent city. My mission is to ensure that every visitor leaves with a deeper understanding of Venice’s cultural heritage and a sense of awe at its beauty.

Whether you’re exploring the hidden gems of the city or marveling at its iconic landmarks, I’m here to provide you with an unforgettable experience, one that celebrates Venice’s incredible legacy.
