The facts – Wine and Art discovery

Who I am

Hello

Hello!

I am Mariangela Piccoli and I am a licensed tour leader.

I assist and hang around with groups or single travellers in their travel itinerary, usually organised by a tour operator, a travel agency or other promoter.

My professional knowledge is based on my Public Relations degree, a wide knowledge of foreign languages and a rich background consisting in countless tours around Italy and abroad.

Wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.

Confucio

Don’t tell me how educated you are, tell me how much you traveled.

Mohammed

The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page.

Saint Augustine

Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.

Anonymous

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Lao Tzu

Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore

VISITED COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD

Travelling is my idea of happiness. I never stop looking for new places to discover. That’s why I turned this passion into my job.
