We are two licensed local guides who have been sharing Mantua and its territory with travelers from all over the world for over 20 years.
Our work is built on a deep knowledge of art, history, and local culture, combined with years of daily experience guiding visitors from all over the world. Guiding is not just our profession — it is a responsibility we take seriously, towards the places we interpret and the people who choose to discover them with us.
Our experience
With more than two decades of professional activity, we have accompanied thousands of visitors through Mantua’s historic center, its museums, palaces, and lesser-known corners. Over the years, we have collaborated with cultural institutions, schools, tour operators, and private travelers, adapting our tours to different interests, backgrounds, and travel styles.
This long experience allows us to create tours that are accurate, engaging, and well-paced, offering not only historical information but also context, stories, and insights that help visitors truly understand the city.
We have both always worked as conference interpreters and translators. We have spent considerable time abroad and have in-depth linguistic and intercultural knowledge, which enables us to manage groups from foreign countries in the best possible way.
Licensed and certified professionals
We are officially licensed tourist guides, authorized to guide in Mantua and its surroundings. Our qualifications are the result of formal training, professional examinations, and continuous education.
Being licensed means working with responsibility, respecting heritage sites, staying up to date with historical research, and ensuring a high standard of quality and reliability for every tour we lead.
A local perspective
Living and working in Mantua gives us a daily connection with the city and its rhythm. We know how it changes through the seasons, how exhibitions evolve, and how local traditions continue to shape everyday life.
This local perspective allows us to go beyond standard itineraries, offering authentic experiences and a deeper understanding of Mantua as a living city, not just a historical destination.
Our approach
We believe that a good tour is built on listening. Every visit starts from the people we guide — their curiosity, time, and expectations. For this reason, our tours are always flexible, carefully structured, and designed to be clear, enjoyable, and meaningful.
Our goal is to help visitors connect with Mantua in a natural and lasting way, leaving them with a richer experience and a deeper appreciation of its cultural heritage.
