Our association was founded in 2005 with two objectives: firstly to create, organise and promote cultural activities in Tuscany and, secondly, to guarantee foreign visitors a fascinating journey through the history and cultural riches of the region. We achieve this through having guides tailored to the needs of particular tour groups. Our guides are qualified in a range of disciplines: art history, archaeology, geology, history, art and architecture, and thus we are able to offer guided tours of all aspects of the region. Our guides are also multilingual, at present we are able to offer tours in Italian, English, French, Spanish, German, Swedish, Russian, Greek, Turkish Chinese and Japanese. Because of this range of expertise, we are not limited to providing only standard guided tours but can offer a much broader range of tours and experiences linked to specific interests: everything from tours linked to a specific aspect of a city to science, art, history, food, fashion and costume. We can also organise thematic based conferences, lectures and workshops. The subject knowledge and teaching experience of our guides guarantees a skilled approach appropriate for all ages at all times and in all activities and tours. Our association also offers a complete service for the client including the necessary and often complicated booking of visits; dealing with and managing relations with the various companies, museums and institutions; and arranging access to, and guided tours of, temporary exhibitions throughout Tuscany. Finally, we are able to provide guides to escort clients between venues, meet clients at the airport and ensure their smooth arrival at their hotel and personally accompany clients during their time in Tuscany. |
