I have been a professional photographer for 30 years. I speak Italian and English. I offer both a photoshoot and a unique experience in the city. You will have the chance to visit the most beautiful parts of Venice while I take pictures and share some enchanting Venetian stories. We will see romantic canals where gondolas proceed silently and lightly and the water becomes a mirror. We will cross ancient bridges and hidden and mysterious places, rich in history and stories.

The guided tour is the most complete and structured way to discover Villa Valmarana ai Nani, where rooms, frescoes and family stories take shape step by step. Thanks to the staff of the Palazzina, visitors will be led through the main rooms in a story that interweaves the constructive history of the Villa and the Valmarana family, together with the reading of the cycle of frescoes. The itinerary is entrusted to a trained Guide, able to combine rigorous content and accessible narration that explores both the interior spaces, with the interpretation of the great cycle of frescoes created by the Tiepolos, and the exterior spaces, with a careful eye to the description of architectural choices and the taste of the time. The visit lasts about 1.30 h and is available in Italian and English.
