I grew up in Tuscany and spent much of my life surrounded by its beautiful hills. After studying communications and event management, I worked at our family transportation company. But, I realized that something was missing. Given how much I enjoyed talking and telling stories about Tuscany, people suggested that I should become a guide. So I decided to try and got my national guiding qualification in Florence. I started giving traditional cultural tours, but later decided to focus on organic food and wine tours, my real passion. Through the eyes of a local, you’ll find out more about Tuscan specialties, sample local wine and learn more about agriculture in the region. I am passionate about teaching and sharing my knowledge. I always try to adapt my tours to my guests needs, preferences and interests. My tours can be also lead by my colleagues, who are also passionate about wine, food, agriculture and Tuscany.

Giacomo, Thank you so much for you help in facilitating our tour last week! We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the Tuscan countryside! What a great way to spend the day outside of Rome and Florence! Giovanni was terrific; full of knowledge of the area and agricultural processes and policies in the area! Will highly recommend Unique Tours Factory in the future to everyone we know who's traveling abroad! Thank you!! Nancy, Derek, Jill, and Chris
