Guide Bio
Hello! My name is Alessandro and I’m a Sicilian archaeologist and Iicensed tour guide. What I love most about my job is sharing my passion for the land with others and spreading knowledge of the territory and culture of Sicily as I know her. I am always delighted to guide my visitors into an unconventional world of archaeology, food, wine and traditions. According to me, a place must not only be visited, but felt and lived in all of its multifaceted features. This is the concept I have of any excursion. We must not be tourists, we have to be part of the society in which we stay, blending our customs with their way to live. I think that this belief, in combination with my expertise acquired through extensive and continuing academic research and high-grade studies, makes me a totally different kind of tour guide.
According to me “Sicily must be experienced, leisurely and in depth”. This is the philosophy through which I live on my island and with which I launched my company “Uncovered Sicily”.
