Meet Francesca, your local guide in Lazio
About Francesca
Francesca is based in Rome, but she splits her time between the Eternal City and Tuscany, and she also regularly guides in Florence. She's been a licensed local guide for the past 10 years.
While she covers all the highlights, she also likes to run tours to lesser-visited neighborhoods, the Appian way, markets and food tours, and these cities’ countless secret places.
Part of what we love so much about Francesca's tours is that she knows how to make visits to unbelievably popular (and crowded) places like the Vatican, Colosseum, and Uffizi galleries feel personal and different. And she shares her practically limitless knowledge of history and art in a way that is causal and fun.
A mom of two daughters, she’s also a sure bet for arranging something the whole family will enjoy!

A note from Francesca
Ciao! Hi everybody, I’m Francesca. I’m a local guide for Rome, the Vatican City, and Tuscany. I’m originally from Livorno, but have been living and guiding in Rome for the last 10 years. I live here with my husband and two daughters.
I’ve worked in tourism for 15 years, and I love that my job is essentially to explore the art, history, and overall beauty of my city and region.
Both when I’m traveling myself or working with clients, I like to discover unique places and villages that give you the real flavor of local life. I enjoy working with people from all over the world and look forward to helping you plan your visit to my corner of it.
Rome, in particular, will amaze you with its romantic corners and wonderful scents & tastes, and I am here to show you all its secrets!
