About

Maria Lombardo

For me, the essence lies in creating unique experiences, to be treasured in the drawer of memories. And why not come back for new adventures, each time discovering hidden corners and emotions never felt before?

Being a tourist guide is my true passion, which I cultivate with dedication, keeping constantly up to date. This commitment lets me convey enthusiasm on every tour, striving to involve my guests authentically. Every story becomes an opportunity to spark curiosity and passion, so that each visit turns into an unforgettable experience.

I love music, Latin-American dance and Argentine tango, art, literature, cinema, cooking, aesthetics, taking part in meetings and conferences in the tourism sector — and I adore unwinding in wellness centres.

The territory

Member of Terre di Pisa

Andamo con Mari is part of Terre di Pisa, the destination brand for the Pisa hinterland promoted by the Chamber of Commerce. It brings together more than thirty municipalities and local operators — hospitality, culture, food & wine, wine and truffle — to reveal the authentic Tuscany beyond the Leaning Tower: villages, hills and slow travel. Being a member means telling and championing this territory with a shared vision.
