About the Guide & Historian
Dr. Danila Bracaglia is a licensed tourist guide and historian.
She holds a degree in History and Archaeology and is officially authorized
by the Italian Ministry of Tourism to work as a professional guide.
Her work combines professional guiding with historical research, offering in-depth battlefield tours focused on the Italian Campaign of the Second World War.
A Professional Guide with a Historical Background
Before specializing in WWII battlefields, Danila trained and worked as a licensed tourist guide, developing a solid experience in cultural and historical interpretation.
Her academic background in history and archaeology provides the foundation for a method that goes beyond storytelling, focusing instead on historical accuracy, context, and interpretation of the landscape.
Specialization in WWII Battlefield Tours
Over the years, Danila has focused her research and guiding activity on the Italian Campaign of WWII, with particular expertise on Anzio, Monte Cassino, and the Allied advance to Rome.
Tours are designed to read the battlefield on the ground, using archival sources, maps, aerial photographs, and war diaries to explain how and why events unfolded in specific locations.
Guiding Families of Veterans and History Enthusiasts
Many tours are created for families of Allied veterans wishing to understand where a father or grandfather fought. When requested, historical research is carried out in advance to reconstruct individual or unit-level experiences and connect them to the landscape.
An Educational and Respectful Approach
Each tour is conducted with respect for the historical sites and the human stories connected to them. The aim is not simply to visit locations, but to understand their meaning within the wider context of the Italian Campaign.
