About Tour Guide Elena S.
Hello there :) My name is Elena and I am deeply in love with Venice. I was born and raised in the countryside nearby Milan but I consider Venice as my true home. I love its people, its beauty and its romantic atmoshere. I came here to study 13 years ago and I immediately fell in love with this amazing city. That is the reason why I chose to stay permanently. I built my life here and honestly I would't wanna live anywhere else!

Strolling down the quiet Cannaregio district
Escape the crowds and discover the real Venice in Cannaregio, one of the city's most authentic neighborhoods. Join me on a relaxing walk through quiet canals, picturesque bridges, and hidden alleys where everyday Venetian life still unfolds. I'll share historical facts and little-known details that bring this extraordinary district to life. We'll admire hidden areas of the city and uncover corners that many visitors never have the chance to see.

Hi, I'm Riccardo, born in the USA and raised in Italy. I specialize in wine tastings, a passion I've pursued for nearly ten years. As a certified sommelier with the Italian Sommelier Association, I curate wine tastings featuring Prosecco, Amarone Valpolicella and Soave. My tours stand out because they are always private and I exclusively select family-run wineries. We'll never rush. My motto is "Drink well, to live well"
