FOUNDER

Carmen Badiali

Hello! My name is Carmen and I am the founder of Mugello & Tuscany. My job is to guide you in organising your bespoke holidays in Tuscany. I will be happy to become your travel consultant for your tailor-made holidays in Tuscany.

I don’t want to make you feel just like another anonymous tourist in line. That’s why I personally select and test every single activity facility and venue before recommending them to you.

CO-FOUNDER

Nino Provenza

My name is Nino and I am from Tuscany, in Mugello, and you can say everything about me except that I am not someone who likes to try new things. I grew up on a farm, always surrounded by animals and nature.There my passion became my job.

Our core Team

Our staff is made up of people who share one thing: love for Tuscany.

Thanks to this feeling and to the knowledge of this area, we will be able to let you experience the most engaging and unique aspects of our territory.
To best accomplish this task we relied on a person who has shared the same passion with us for some time:

Simona

Gianni

The Tartufaio chief and his Achilles
Gianni and his inseparable Achille form a close-knit team, as the law of nature dictates. For him, a truffle dog must have very precise characteristics and, precisely for this reason, he chose not to rely on a Lagotto, but on an outspoken hunting companion.

Claudio and Gina

The inseparable duo
Claudio and his faithful Gina, an affectionate Lagotto, will conquer you instantly. Gina is sweet, loving and tremendously jealous of her Claudio. During the hunt will be the real protagonist, ready to give you moments of pure wonder.

Giovanni and Portos

Pure energy in truffle hunting
Giovanni and his young Lagotto, Portos, are a dynamic couple. Portos is the classic male full of energy, always excited to run in the woods. Watching him run through the leaves will be fun, but the real show will begin when he starts digging for the truffle!
