Marta Toso
Hi, I am Marta. I was born and raised in Italy, in the area of the stunning and unique Venice. I have been working in tourism for many years and when I am not working...I travel! I love all the wonders the world has to offer, but the Country that runs through my veins is Italy, and to the people who decide to visit it, I want to give the same excitement that I feel when a travel experience takes my breath away.
I’m also a tour leader and a travel assistant. Moreover, I have some experience in teaching Italian as a foreign language, because I am proud to do my part in spreading Italian culture and the beauty of our language.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"Cultural tours, tasting experiences, funny activities."
How did you get involved in travel?
"I graduated in tourism, then I worked for many years in a major Italian outgoing travel company. Thanks to that, I got the chance to work in many countries and connect with partners from all over the world. After many years dedicated to helping Italians discover the beauties of the world, I felt the desire to reverse course and give back the welcome I had abroad by helping those who would like to come and meet this amazing, tasty, noisy, quiet, modern, traditional, crazy country called Italy!"
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"I will never forget all the people I met because they are the ones who made my travels, anyway nature always plays its role too, so my unforgettable experience was when during a safari in the Kruger National Park in South Africa we came face to face with a roaring lion."
