Hi there! Nice to meet you

Eleonora

My name is Eleonora. I am an architect and urban planner and I have been living in Rome for more than ten years. I am a licensed tour guide and tour leader and I can speak Italian, English and German.

I love to travel, but most of all I love to seek new adventures! I feel at home in many different places and I like to help people feeling the same way.

I am a very cheerful person, always happy to meet new people. I like to cook, to eat and to enjoy the best food with others. I am also passionate about art, street art, theatre and music.

Last but not least, I am a true urban explorer: I am never tired of walking around town!

We were lucky to have Eleonora as our guide during our visit to the Colosseum and Roman Forum, and she truly made the experience unforgettable. Her passion, and engaging storytelling brought the ancient ruins vividly to life — for both us and our teenagers. She struck the perfect balance between historical depth, fun facts, and interactive moments. It never felt like a lecture — more like a fascinating journey through time. Thanks to Eleonora, we didn’t just see the monuments, we understood the stories behind them. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience the true heart of ancient Rome!

Eleonora was an amazing tour guide for our family of five, which included our three children, now young adults. Not having been to the Vatican before, we were so grateful for her knowledge. She had the perfect personality to keep all of us engaged and interested. She covered a lot of information and territory within our 2+ hour tour. Given the volume of crowds, a private tour is definitely the best way to see the Vatican. We highly recommend Eleonora as your private guide!Excellent Private Tour of the Vatican

A wonderful and informative experience, despite a very hot day this was a smooth journey through stories and incredible scenery. a very knowledgeable guide who could easily relate to the present and the past, find connections between human behavior and the collecting habits of men with great power and wealth, and could tell us about the buildings, the landscapes and the incredible art treasure that exists. we left the vatican extremely happy with the visit and the experience. thank youWonderful and informative experience

I would highly recommend Eleonora if you want to do a private tour of the Vatican/Sistine Chapel. This was the first time at the Vatican for our 18 and 20 year old granddaughters and Eleonora struck the perfect balance of providing interesting info about the most important features of the Vatican museum and Sistine chapel without getting bogged down on any one subject. Even though my wife and I have been to the Vatican several times, Eleonora made it interesting for us as well. She also did a great job of maneuvering our little group through the throngs of tourists. To top it off, Eleonora has a great personality.Best Tour of the Vatican and St Peters

First day in Italy, just off the plane, 4 adults and 3 small children. If this first family adventure was to be a success we had to do a Coliseum tour that first day... Eleonora made it happen and with her having an architectural background and with what appeared to be a Nanny's understanding of small children the experience couldn't have been any better. She read her audience (us) recognized what we had just endured and made our first visit of the trip a memorable experience. I will always seek out when traveling "with locals" for that personal feel, friendliness, understanding and on hand to provide quick suggestions for any other assistance you may be in need of. Thank you so much Eleonora for such a wonderful experience. DanEleonora is the best!

Wir hatten eine fantastische Führung mit Eleonora. Sie ist wunderbar altersgerecht und geduldig auf die Fragen unseres 8jährigen Sohnes eingegangen und hat es gleichzeitig geschafft, die Tour auch für uns Erwachsene zu einem Erlebnis zu machen. Ganz herzlichen Dank aus Österreich!Großartig - vor allem mit Kind!
