Its Doric temples, surpassed even by those of Athens in noble simplicity and good preservation, produces an incomparable effect of majesty and grandeur.

Gianluca was absolutely amazing helping us sent up transfers and tours for our family trip. Francesco arrived early and was waiting for us in Rome to take us to the Amalfi coast. Gianluca had a fantastic restaurant for us to stop at on the way. Joe took care of us for travel to The path of the gods, Amalfi coast town tours and Pompei. He was great stopping for great photo opportunities and telling us the history of the coast. Best driver in all the Amalfi Coast! Angelo was the boat captain to Capri. This was a magical day. He became apart of the family. The entire team has become of new family in Italy! I can’t wait to go back and see my new friends! This was the best trip ever and it was because of Gianluca, Francesco, Joe, and Angelo!
Our guide Mario was exceptional. He was extremely knowledgable and his passion and excitement about the site was contagious. He was very friendly, relatable, and had a great sense of humor. I had a great time asking questions and discussing the ancient Greeks and Romans. I really recommend this tour!
This tour was amazing!! After Aldo picked us up at our flat, we started with the Buffalo Farm tour. Then, we traveled a short distance to Paestum. We chose the private guide option and Maria was worth every penny and more!! A private guide absolutely makes the tour - otherwise, you're simply looking at ruins with no context. Maria made the entire site come to life through her trip through history. Unlike Pompeii, in Paestum you are able to see both Greek and Roman ruins all in one place. After the Paestum tour, we traveled back to the Buffalo Farm for a fabulous lunch. From the aperitivo to the pasta, everything was insanely delicious - as was the wine. We highly recommend the cheese sampler plate. Each of us had a different favroite, but all agreed that every single one was sublime! Warning - you'll want to take more home with you. We couldn't recommend this tour more! We hope you enjoy this tour as well as we enjoyed it!
If you've been to Athens, this is a great treat. You'll see 3 greek temples unbelievably intact, alters, and much more. It was such a treat to see both Roman and Greek roads and to learn the history of Paestum and the surrounding areas. Our guide, Francesca, was very knowledgeable. The Bufalo Factory tour was pretty amazing too - and of course the cheese was creamy and tasty. Our base was near Amalfi. Our driver Aldo picked us up and kept us entertained throughout the day. Everyone enjoyed the day. If you are looking to see ancient history beyond Pompei, I recommend this day trip.
Marco was on time, polite, spoke good English. The local guides at each destination were also excellent. Enjoyed the tour!
