My name's Elisabetta Ivaldi, tourist guide for Parma and its province and tour manager in the world. I've been working in the field of tourism since 1987 and in 1991 I took the license of Tour Manager and started working with groups of tourists around the world.

I've been Tourist Guide for Parma and its province since 1992 and I work in Italian, English, Russian, Spanish and French.

I really love my town and I try to transmit my passion to all the people who want to discover the land where I live, rich in history, art, culture, music and food traditions which have made it famous all over the world.

Two very important elements in my job are both research and study and this is the reason why in 2006, after the degree in Foreign Languages and Literatures, I took the degree in History of Art as well.

Since 2009 I've been Guide in the Reggio Emilia territory: the town, the Canossa castle and Brescello, set of many films with the two heroes don Camillo and Peppone, based on Giovanni Guareschi's novels.

Since 2010 I've been also working as a tourist guide in the Modena town and territory.

Besides the classical itineraries I offer the popular "Gourmet Tour" for those who love food!!

Moreover:

• Special visits for schools (every age)
• Specialized visits to museums and exhibitions in town and province
• Visit to Parmesan cheese factory, Parma ham and Culatello di Zibello D.O.P. curing plant, Traditional Balsamic Vinegar factory (on request: tasting and lunch with local product)

I speak Italian, English, French, German, Spanish and Russian, so contact me in order to optimize your itinerary and enjoy your time at the best.
