Hola! Encantado de conocerte

Beatrice

Ciao! I'm Beatrice, I was born in Firenze and named after the girl loved by the most famous Florentine poet, Dante Alighieri. In his poem, he describes her as the angel guiding him in his imaginary journey in Paradise so she became the symbol of eternal love! I've studied Archaeology and History of Art and after some years around the world doing excavations and expeditions I came back to my beloved Florence and started tour-guiding to share the beauty and love of my city. I have a cute cat called Merlin and in my free time, I like playing the guitar and doing yoga. My passion for traveling is infinite and I love seeing different places and knowing people.

My idea of the perfect moment at the end of a day is seating with a book and a cup of tea and enjoying a stunning view.

Our tour of Pistoia was fantastic, Beatrice our guide was very knowledgeable and very personable. Since my grandparents came from this city it made for a very satisfying day. We learn about the history, great pastry shops and had a delicious lunch in one of the squares.Great trip tp Pistoia

This tour was a little more strenuous than I had pictured, but the temperature was also higher than normal on this June afternoon. We had a great time seeing a different side of Florence with the absolutely delightful Beatrice. If you've seen the tourist highlights already, I highly recommend getting away from it all on a hike with her up the Oltrarno to the top of the hill and down through Piazza Michelangelo.Great excursion away from the crowds

Beatrice was an efficient, capable, personable and pleasant tour guide before, during, and after our trip. She helped us navigate by train from Florence to Pistoia, where she met us. Beatrice shared with us in a knowledgeable way the information she had about Pistoia’s history and culture, and took us to really interesting spots there including the Duomo, Baptistery, and a local bar/cafe with lots of history, where we enjoyed delicious coffee and pastries. Being a Saturday, we also walked through the local open-air Saturday market, which was very colorful and enjoyable. After a satisfying tour, Beatrice took us to a little place to get a local focaccia to-go, and then helped us get tickets to Lucca, our next destination. We were very pleased with our tour of Pistoia, and our choice of Beatrice as a tour guide, and highly recommend both! Laura Wonderful day trip to Pistoia

We are on a short visit to Italy. This was Karen’s first visit. I wanted for Karen and myself a more personal visit to a smaller city. Our guide was Beatrice. Our visit certainly met optimistic expectations and more. Beatrice is a lovely person, knowledgeable (she is a archeologist), attentive to needs and it was easy to feel comfortable during 2 hour trip. Pistoia is a lovely town with much history that Beatrice related well. This is less tourist centric but people we encountered were all friendly. Beatrice loves her city and shares her positive feelings as we toured. Beatrice is very engaging, communicated city history and travel logistics well and would strongly recommend to all. We had the added treat of seeing Beatrice’s 3 month daughter sleeping peacefully in stroller push by grandmother. We had a lovely and easy trip from Florence to Pistoia by train. WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE IN PISTOIA

I've been to Florence many times, but this time decided to to treat myself to a tour with a private guide. I could not have been happier than with Beatrice as a guide. She's of course a professional and very knowledgeable guide, but she's also just great fun to spend time with. Also, she perfectly customised the tour to show me some stuff off the beaten track, and even included a little local food tasting experience. I had a great time and can't recommend her enough! A great day in Florence!

We had a fantastic time in Pistoia with our guide Beatrice. She was extremely knowledgeable, interesting and spoke very good English. She was so accommodating in getting us to and from Florence and letting us extend our time in Pistoia to have lunch. This was our first time to Pistoia and we were pleasantly surprised with the town and all there was to see. We would not have discovered many of the historical areas or local restaurants without Beatrice’s help. Generally we are not big fans of tours, but this one was great and I would highly recommend it. A good way to take a break from Florence. Definately go to Pistoia with Beatrice!

Beatrice was an excellent tour guide - extremely knowledgeable, passionate about the history and architecture of Florence, great communication prior to the tour with lots of tips on how to maximize our time in and around Florence, including a restaurant where we ended up going to that evening - all in all she was a delight to spend time with!Wonderful tour!

Beatrice guided us through the Palazzo Medici and Palazzo Vecchio with a small break in between. She definitely knows her Medici and taught us a lot about them. On the way she also told us a bunch of small little facts that one might be oblivious to if just strolling around for yourself. She was kind and could answer most of our questions right away. We think the price was fair for a private tour. Thanks again!Custom tour through medici history

Beatrice was a fantastic guide. Great knowledge of the city and kept my boys engaged all morning. We did a trek outside of the city and had such a great time. If you are in Florence, Beatrice is a go-to guide. Treat yourself to a once in a lifetime experience!Fantastic Tour!
