Hola!

I am an Italian public relations professional and tour advisor who has been traveling to more than 50 countries and living in various parts of the world.

I have chosen Merida as my current base for its many advantages, not least its incredible beauty and the stunning nature it is surrounded by.

I am easy going and enthusiastic, and I will let you see and live the city like a local.

I love the outdoors, nature, I am passionate about all kinds of wildlife; my biggest passion is the ocean and I am a proud Dive Master.

In addition to Italian I speak English and Spanish fluently and have some knowledge of French.

Simona was incredible! She took us into the local Merida market. This market is a maze of incredible local seafood, meats, produce, and local goods. I would have gotten lost in this maze of shops, but Simona took us around to eat all the authentic local cuisine. She took us to see some sights and we ended at a local cantina. If you are interested in local authentic cuisine, Simona is your girl!Incredible Local Food Tour

The tour with Simona was so much fun! She is not only very knowledgeable about the city and a great storyteller, but also very welcoming. Her warm attitude makes you feel like you are sharing a pleasant stroll with an old friend. I really appreciated her effort in accommodating all my allergies to ensure I could fully enjoy the experience. I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you, Simona! This will surely remain one of my best memories from this trip.Fun stroll in Merida

The tour with Simona was greatly enjoyable, she’s personable and knowledgeable about the city and the food. She accommodated my requests and I had several items to taste, definitely more than the 10 advertised. It was a great start to my trip, I felt safe tasting all the different delicacies at the municipal market and had a good overview of the city, of Mexican history and daily life. Highly recommended!

Simona was excellent as a guide. Personable and answered questions for us about the city and food. The tour itself is a rip off. 3 beers to share between 4 people. 3 tacos to share between 4 people. 2 marquesitas to share between 4 people. It was strange not to get a small single serving each as the “tasters”. Didn’t leave satisfied with the quantity of food or our experience. Simona was late and also left the tour early. Not worth it
