Private hiking tours, the way Tuscany should be seen.

I'm happiest outdoors, and I've turned that into my work: leading small, fully private groups into the Apuan Alps, the Apennines and the Tuscan wetlands, for people who want depth over the standard tour. Just your group and me, never mixed with strangers.

My approach is slow and observational. We stop, we look, we name what we see: birds, mushrooms, the shape of the land. Photography is simply how I find these places: an eye trained to chase good light leads to quiet, beautiful spots a standard tour never reaches, whether or not you ever lift a camera. I'm a certified environmental guide (GAE · AGAE), mushroom-ID certified and a nature photographer. The short version is simpler: I know these places, and there's nothing I'd rather do than show them to you.
