Private Guide in Italy, Venice: Cinzia Trevisan
Private tour in Venice
I'm an official tour guide in Venice, Italy  I graduated Summa cum Laudem from the University of Venice with a degree in History and I'm specialized on Venetian and Byzantine Art and History
I lived in the United States for two years and spent time in California, Texas and Florida. Since 1979 I have worked in the tourist industry as an interpreter, tour leader and travel agent. In 2000 I obtained my qualification of Certified Guide in Venice. I love travelling and local cuisine, the sea, nature, animals, and 60s and 70s pop and rock. Over the years I have organised and held weekly meetings in English on Venetian history and art, offering the proceeds to art restoration projects carried out by UNESCO in Venice. I have personally designed the tour I offer in Venice. They are innovative and meticulously planned itineraries, conceived to learn not only about the major monuments of the world's most beautiful city, but to disclose Venice's lesser-known treasures, sometime accessible only by special arrangements.
My tours are different from traditional guided tours: they will be for you an extraordinary and unforgettable experience, to discover Venice both as it was in times past and as it is today.
These walking tours will make you crossing the thresholds of the past centuries and will take you in the history and beauty of Venice and its Lagoon, adding great value to every single step you'll take in Venice.
Languages spoken: Italian, English, Spanish, French what's up in Venice Carnival
Venetian Carnival is an event you can't miss. It means transgression, culture, tradition, art and history.In the past
Carnival has its roots in Greek and Roman times, to the feasts related to the Cult of the Dionysus and to the Latin Saturnalia, celebrating the end of Winter. In Christianity it became a period of merrymaking before Lent fast.
In Venice Carnival began on Boxing Day, December 26, and reached its climax the day before Ash Wednesday. While it lasted, the law was for more or less held in abeyance: the wearing of masks and disguises abolished social divisions of the duration. Today
In the last 20 years Carnival in Venice has been re-established and recreates the atmosphere of the glorious past.
Masks have reappeared, and 18th century garments and traditional costumes again mingle with other grotesque disguises. The old custom of giving balls and theatrical shows has been revived, along with an array of ancient Venetian games. | Add your Opinion about this guide and tour here  | | Customer's Opinions | Philipe, Argentina, Mendoza
just the face of the Doge's Palace amazed and surprized me! It was interesting - and what inside? so mighty, enormous, majestic and unimaginable??? indeed - Cinzia showed us another world! All is so extraordinary and interesting. Also all our excursion Cinzia told us about this or that room, what was it famous for or what was happened in it. I liked very mush the Casanova's cell and the attic above the Hall of the Grand Council. Very interesting excursion - thank you Cinzia. | Kane and Billy, Cuba, Havana
A tour Venetian Highlights was planned for us by our guide Cinzia. We prepared for it. We were going to visit the splendour of Venice to my mind. And we met with Cinzia. Very nice girl, knew a lot about history of sights, always knew how to answer our questions. and it was nice:). We visited everything, that was planned by our guide. With admiration I remember the golden Basilica of St. Mark - is a real symbol of Venice. He is luxurious; the Rialto Bridge - magnificent architecture. There are no words!; and certainly - the Grand Canal - he gives some unusual energy of life. Excellent!
The excursion was out of the ordinary. it is to be regretted that very quickly. Anyway thank you Cinzia very much. | Leo, Croatia, Split
I always admired wonderful arts in all displays. But to see such miracle with my own eyes - I never dreamt about it! Cinzia, our guide, arranged us a magnificent excursion during which we delighted the magnificent mosaics of St Mark’s Basilica and wonderful works of byzantine artists in the Byzantine Art Museum. It is splendid! and it is needed to see live, to feel deeply all the beauty! Thank you for a wonderful excursion in this surprising world of art. | Roger and Silvia, Estonia, Narva
If you want to know about Venice as much as possible, it's necessary to contact with Cinzia! Her excursion is fantastic! We were in the excursion only for several hours, but knew so many! all was very interesting. Cinzia is a magnificent narrator. She tells about history of Venice, and about great people, once creating in this wonderful town, and about sights. Excursion is well organized. We got enormous pleasure communicating with you! | Julia, Belgium, Brussel
Gourmet tour is something unreal! Cinzia - thank you so much for this holiday of body and soul! We spent wonderful time! Cicchetti and wines - are so wonderful! I liked them so much! never tasted anything like that! Thank you again! | Alexey, Russia, Volgograd
I liked very much the excursion which was planned by Cinzia Trevisan. The Doge's Palace it's a real place that should be seen by everyone I think. Its luxury is magnificent and really strikes! The Palace are so...GREAT! Cinzia sowed me all its beauty wich was made by the great people of that period. Really, I'm wrtiting now this opinion and don't know how to express what I felt when was there. It's UNREAL! | Page and Charley, Australia, Melbourne
Cinzia Trevisan organized a wonderful tour for us - we saw a lot of sights of Venice and knew a lot of intersting facts of each of them and of Venice itself. The excursion was well planned, we didn't waste time. What about Venician Highlights - in general, Venice in itself is a great sight like other cities of Italy, it is impossible to describe by words all the beauty of this wonderful city, it is necessary to see with your own eyes!
Thank you Cinzia for your time you spent on us:) | Sintia, Czech Republic, Ostrava
My husband persuaded me to visit islands. I was not going I must say:)But still - why not to attempt? We contacted with Cinzia and booked the tour in the Venitian Lagoon. Now, when almost a year passed I think - visiting Venice, you NEED to visit islands! Murano, Burano and Torcello are wonderful! Cinzia told and sohwed us so many interesting! I didn't expect that I would be delighted with glassmaking, fishing, boats, everything! it's really another world:) | Gerard, France, Grenoble
I already was on excursions organized by Cinzia. In this time I decided to absorb in the arts and contacted Cinzia. She offered me to get acquainted with Byzantine Art. Magnificent excursion! I made sure in her professionalism again! She knew what she was telling about.
Most of all I was surprized with the Byzantine Art Museum, in which I liked frescos and rich interior in Sala del Trono and Salone da Ballo.
I am sure that I will continue my acquaintance with Venice with the help of the best guide Cinzia. | Maxime, Finland, Helsinki
I always was not indifferent to painting. And my main task during the visit in Venice was to visit The Accademia Galleries house. Many thanks to Cinzia Trevisan. All was organized well. I was led on wonderful halls, where I could see Works of all without exception great masters of Venice with my own eyes! Excellent! An excursion was very informative and once more - thank you Cinzia for that you help people to touch the beauty. | Karl and Samantha, Germany, Hannover
Venice is a wonderful city. Cinzia is a wonderful guide. She knows everything about this city and she is able to use her knowledge. She is a good organizer. She is able to include in her excursion sightseeing, and walk on the boat, and the relaxation with a glass of wine.
My husband and I liked very much to travel with Cinzia and the excursion in Venice - delightful and admirable. |
