Meet Stefano, your local guide in Tuscany & Florence

About Stefano

A sommelier and outdoor guide, Stefano has been leading tours all over Tuscany, Cinque Terre, and Umbria for more than 10 years. He specializes in easy walking and wine tours out in the beautiful Tuscan countryside at locally owned and operated wineries.

Stefano runs unique tours, what he refers to as “out of the box” experiences, and he focuses on bringing his guests to places where you can feel authentic Tuscany and get off the typical tourist trail.

Stefano is a driver-guide and his tours can also encompass visits to multiple towns and areas throughout Tuscany. Every tour can be fully customized to accommodate you, your interests, and travel style. If you’d like, you’ll be able to work one-on-one with Stefano to arrange the details of the tour together and to create something truly unique.

Please note: Stefano is a tour operator and has two other great guides (Alessandro and Manuel) on his team. Even if he isn't personally available, he can usually have one of them cover for him.

A note from Stefano

Ciao, buongiorno! My name is Stefano, and I am a native Tuscan! I was born and grew up in Fucecchio, a small village on the Arno river in the Tuscan countryside, but for the past 13 years I have been living in Florence while working as a guide all over Tuscany, Liguria, and Umbria.

I am a fully licensed guide, with a special license in hiking, and so I love to show people special green corners of Florence and Tuscany. I like to show them a different perspective of my city and region and what better way to do it than on two feet?!

I like to help guests get out into the countryside to see unique places and so that together we can taste local regional foods and wines and also to see Tuscany in a sustainable way.

In addition to guiding, I am also a licensed Wine Sommelier from FISAR and I am passionate about wine and good craft beer. When I have some time off from all the eating and wine tasting, I like to get out into the hills and forests around Florence for trail running.

I’m looking forward to meeting you and helping you explore a side of Florence and Tuscany beyond just the most touristic highlights. My region has so much to offer beyond the main Tripadvisored things, rushed day tours, and overcrowded museums. Let me help you discover them!
