Guide Bio

I am the founder and owner of an outdoor adventure company. I have been doing guided tours for more than 25 years. In 2003, I established my company to show guests the beautiful surrounding of Lake Garda. I love to go off the mainstream path, as there is so much more to explore.

For me, the great excitement of guiding is to get to know so many different people and different cultures. I love to work with guests to see in their eyes how beautiful the tour is. I can feel their emotions of happiness and fear. It’s rewarding to see how people can grow through their own obstacles and fear. To see the gratification in their eyes once they have finished the tour is just breathtaking!
