Tuscany with Susanna
Local tour guide in Italy
I was born and grew up in Stuttgart, in Germany, but I have lived in Tuscany for the last 15 years. My first language is German, and I am also fluent in English and Italian.
I have always loved travelling. After my postgraduate degree in Tourism from the University of Berlin I decided to stay in Tuscany, ...(read more)because I find the art and history of this region absolutely fascinating. Both art and history truly come to life for me when I am showing my guests the stunning sights of Florence and surroundings and telling them about what happened in those very places.
I am a fully qualified and state-licensed Tour Guide for the City and Province of Florence and for the City and Province of Siena.
