Hi! my name is Larissa Zverchkhovaskaia.

I am an official tourist guide, in Italian and Russian, my mother language, for the two most beautiful provinces of Tuscany: Florence and Siena.

My companion Stefano, as a pure Florentine, would say ” But what are you saying? Florence and Siena are simply the most beautiful provinces of the world”. As there is so much to see and do, it took me some time to realize it, but now I definitely agree with him. I still remember my first vision of Florence’s Duomo (The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore - www-duomofirenze.it): we were riding on a Vespa 50 and I was sitting behind, all of a sudden, as we rounded the next corner, it stood in front of us in all its magnificence, I just fell in love!!! In this site you can find a lot of information (remove s) and photos about Florence and Siena, I hope you enjoy them. Of course, if you hire me I will be more than happy to tell you all about the history, the traditions, the people and their customs, and guide you through these two marvelous territories. Heading down from Florence to Siena we will drive through Chianti and Val d’Orcia and come upon a lot of minor but very famous cities like San Gimignano, Montalcino, Pienza, Montepulciano and also an incredible number of well hidden treasures, not to mention the food and the wine that go hand in hand with them! I’m looking forward to being your guide!
