Cooltours by Anna
I think a little introduction to my blog is essential, so an easy post to express where and why Cooltours came to my mind 2 years ago.
By chance I have been "hired" by a tour company located in the USA, pretty known and highly recommended on travel guide books, this happened when I was working at a winery in Gaiole in Chianti, Capanelle estate, a winery-cellar I still consider one of the very best in the area!
The tour guide looked at me while I was running one of the thousand wine tasting tours of the year and said " I believe you are a Ferrari in a garage".....
It took three years for me to realized I wanted to venture in this job, I started thanks to that and other colleagues trusting me and welcoming me in their companies and still today I dream of a cooperation between human beings although the inside of several people is "struggle" all the time and for everything, what again I do not like at all.
Finally I trained myself by working and I thought that I was ready to show and share my personality and do it my own way.
What about the name? At the very beginning I wanted to call my company "wine something", "Tuscany something" , "blue sky, sunflowers".....then I looked around and said: WOW how many companies are using names like these? So I came out from the touristy flow and I decided to combine in my company name the words "culture" and "tours" so the idea of giving clients a 360 degrees experience, not a wine focused one or a historical one , but a combination of both so cultural knowledge and wine&food tastings thanks to off the beaten paths exploration in the Tuscan countryside, visits of less known touristy villages where we can savor the locals, the real lives and people with their good, background, experiences.
Of course the combination of the two words resulted in the informal English word COOL which highly describes ANNA, the tour escort and professional driver I am today.
