Martina

I'm Martina, a licensed tour guide since 2015 and certified sommelier specializing in travel consultancy for Italy, with Florence as my primary expertise. Living and working in Florence, I've developed an intimate knowledge of this Renaissance city – from its world-famous museums to hidden artisan workshops, from Michelin-starred restaurants to authentic local trattorias.

My passion extends beyond work: I regularly explore art exhibitions, attend concerts and theater shows, and discover the best venues with friends. This genuine local lifestyle enriches the travel advice I provide, offering insights no guidebook can match.

While Florence is my specialty, I also have solid experience in Pisa, Siena, Lucca, the Tuscan coast, Bologna, Venice, and Rome. This broader knowledge allows me to create comprehensive Italian journeys that connect multiple destinations seamlessly.

Whether you need expert travel tips, a thorough review of your existing itinerary, or a custom travel plan built from scratch, I combine professional expertise with authentic local perspective.
