Support on
My consultations are one-to-one calls designed to offer clear guidance, local insight and practical support. Each session is shaped around your needs to help you plan your trip with more clarity and confidence
Is this service right for me if I’ve already planned my trip?
Yes! Many travellers come to me with a trip that is already planned but want to make the most of their time in Tuscany. In this case, I recommend the ‘Refine Your Trip’ consultation; it allows me to review your existing plan, answer any questions and enrich your journey with personalised recommendations – from dining and transport to unique experiences like wine tours, truffle hunting and those local hidden gems that make a Tuscan holiday truly unforgettable. What’s the difference between Refine Your Trip and the Tailor-Made Itinerary?
Refine Your Trip is for travellers who already have a plan or an idea, including those who are already in Tuscany, and are looking for tailored guidance to enrich their journey. I’ll review your itinerary, answer your questions, and adjust the details, providing specific recommendations and local insights to ensure every moment of your trip works perfectly for you. How many days are included in the Tailor-Made Itinerary?
The Tailor-Made Itinerary includes the creation of a detailed day-by-day itinerary for up to 10 days in Tuscany. If your trip is longer, additional days can be added with a supplement of €20 per day. Can I book a consultation even if I’m already in Tuscany?
Yes. You can book a consultation even if you are already in Tuscany. This is particularly useful if you would like recommendations on restaurants, wineries, experiences, or places to visit during your stay. I’ll help you make the most of your time in the region with personalised suggestions based on your interests and location. Is this service only for first-time visitors to Tuscany?
Not necessarily! This service is designed for everyone, whether you are visiting Tuscany for the first time or already know the region. Tuscany is rich in small villages, local traditions, and unique experiences that many travellers never discover, even after several visits. My goal is to help you discover these aspects of the region and experience Tuscany beyond the most familiar destinations. Do you work with solo travellers, couples, families and small groups?
Yes! I work with solo travellers, couples, families and small groups. Whether you are planning a romantic getaway, a family holiday or an independent adventure, the consultation is tailored to your specific travel goals and interests. Can I book a Tailor-Made Itinerary for a larger group?
Yes. If you are travelling as a group of more than 8 people, please get in touch before booking so we can discuss your plans and confirm that the service is suitable for your needs.

My approach is personal, detail-oriented, and shaped around your travel style and priorities. You can expect honest recommendations, clear communication, and guidance built on direct knowledge of Tuscany.
What can I expect from the personalised plan?
The personalised plan is delivered in PDF format,
● With Refine Your Trip: The plan is built around your existing itinerary or specific requests discussed during the video call.
● With the Tailor-Made Itinerary: The plan is created from scratch and organised day by day.
In both cases, the plan is designed around your needs, interests and travel style. To provide you with a comprehensive guide, it may include a curated selection of the following elements, based on our consultation:
● Restaurant recommendations: For each restaurant or bar, you will find contact details, opening hours, Google Maps links, online booking links (when available), an indication of the average price per person, and a short review based on my personal experience.
● Local experiences: A brief introduction to each experience, along with practical information such as prices, Google Maps links and direct contacts with providers, including phone numbers, email addresses or website links.
● Cultural sites, small villages and cities: For places such as museums, monuments or villages, the plan includes a short historical or cultural introduction, booking links (when available), opening hours, ticket prices and practical visiting information.
● Transport & getting around: Personalised guidance on transport and mobility, based on your needs discussed during the call. This may include train and bus routes and stops all around the region, car rentals, taxis and recommended private transfers, as well as practical parking information, including free and paid options.
● Local shopping & artisans: A curated selection of local shops and artisan workshops, with short descriptions, contact details and Google Maps links.
● Scenic views & photo spots: Suggestions for the most beautiful panoramic viewpoints in Tuscany, including lesser-known spots I have personally discovered, with a dedicated map to help you easily locate them.
● Local events: Suggestions for local events, festivals, historical reenactments and food or wine fairs taking place during your stay. (subject to availability during your travel dates). What kind of recommendations do you provide?
My recommendations are always tailored to your journey and include restaurants and bars, local experiences (wine tastings and tours, cooking classes, truffle hunting, guided bike tours, guided trekking and hiking, horseback experiences, child-friendly adventure parks, and more), cultural sites, museums and small villages, beautiful beaches along the coast, transportation, food shops, local shopping and artisans, scenic views and photo spots, and local events. I also share practical advice on logistics, parking and hidden gems that only a local knows. Do you recommend hotels or accommodations?
To ensure you have full flexibility and freedom of choice, I do not recommend specific hotels and accommodations. However, I will guide you in choosing the ideal area or town for your stay. If you already have a place in mind or have already booked your accommodation, that’s perfect: we will build the itinerary and activities around your chosen location to make the most of your time. What if I haven’t booked my accommodation yet?
No problem. If you have not booked your accommodation yet, I can help you identify the most suitable area or town for your stay during the consultation.
Once your accommodation is confirmed, I will create or finalise the itinerary around your chosen location(s) to ensure the best possible flow and use of your time. Do you make bookings on my behalf?
No, I do not make bookings on your behalf. This gives you full flexibility and control over your travel plans. However, in every plan, I provide all the practical tools you need to book independently, including direct links, phone numbers and email contacts, so you can proceed easily and with confidence. What if my plans change after the consultation?
Travel is all about flexibility! If your plans change after our consultation, send me an email; I am happy to help you adapt or improve your itinerary. I will share alternatives and tips to ensure you have a wonderful stay. When will I receive my plan or itinerary?
● Tailor-Made Itinerary: Your itinerary plan is typically delivered within 10 days after the consultation. Delivery times may vary depending on the length and complexity of the trip, as well as any details that may need to be finalised following the consultation. Are your recommendations independent?
Absolutely yes. Your Tuscany Expert was founded with the idea of offering honest, authentic and independent guidance. I do not accept commissions from restaurants, experience providers, or local partners. This ensures that my recommendations are based solely on quality, relevance, and how well they fit your travel style, free from any external influence. Do you recommend self-guided trekking or hiking routes?
For safety reasons, I do not recommend self-guided trekking or hiking routes in parks, forests, or remote natural areas. Tuscany is a vast and varied territory, and conditions can change quickly. When trekking or hiking is part of your journey, I always suggest relying on qualified local guides that I can recommend, so you can enjoy the experience safely and with a deeper understanding of the landscape.
