Hi there! Nice to meet you

Francesca

I'm an art historian and my area of expertise is Religious Art of the Baroque Period. Rome is a stratified city: every monument tells about a specific historical time, from the Ancient Period to the XX century. The story of Europe starts from here! Exploring Roman Art is the best way to understand the story of the city and our culture deeply.

Every tour for me is an opportunity to know other cultures and personal stories, creating new connections with people from around the world.

I've lived in France and Portugal and I speak Italian, English, and French. I'm a very curious girl, enthusiastic about life and I enjoy sharing my knowledge with others!

We thoroughly enjoyed our morning tour with Francesca. She is a lovely and delightful young woman and we felt comfortable with her from the very start of the tour. Her vast knowledge of art history and the historic center of Rome was impressive. It made for a very fun, interesting and entertaining tour. We learned so many things that we would have never known had we tried to investigate the city on our own. She provided many helpful insights and then followed up with a very informative text that provided additional information. We highly recommend Francesca - she clearly loves her city and is a marvelous representative.Francesca is a treasure!

Francesca was the perfect guide. We were looking for places away from the main tourist attractions with a focus on art history. Francesca provided an insightful and interesting tour of several historic art locations across the city. It’s also great when you can connect with your guide which Francesca did with my wife and me. Such a lovely person. It really made our visit to Rome. Thank you Francesca!The Perfect Guide

Francesca showed us art and history around the city that we would have simply walked past without her and she explained the context and significance of the sights too. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her!A wonderful first morning in Rome ..

Francesca brought our experience of the Trastevere neighborhood to life. She shared her mastery of the many layered history of this special “village” of Rome and opened up our understanding through a woven tapestry of historical and present-day stories, perspectives, personalities and anecdotes. She is a true scholar and a personable guide. Following her knowledgeable lead through the neighborhood was an immense pleasure. Without Francesca, we never would have discovered the most special details and corners of this magnificent part of the city.Experience the Real Trastevere
