We thorougy enjoyed the very interesting tour made possible by Daniela. She is extremely knowledgeable and makes the visit extra interesting by explaining a lot and giving a lot of nice details that would orherwise, without a guide, have elided us. Recommandable!
Daniela was wonderful and excited to teach you all about Pompeii!
Daniela's incredible proficiency in English and her rapid delivery is matched only by her profound knowledge of all aspects of ancient life in Herculaneum. She has a way of weaving together all the many parts of her research and education and bringing beautifully to life a period of history that is fascinating and tragic, making it all very real. Extraordinary in every way. WAY more than 5 stars!
Excellent visit with Carmine who has a very good knowledge of Pompeii, he knew how to adapt his speech to all members of our small family. Pompeii is a must-see and grandiose site that requires a guide not to scatter.... We highly recommend this activity.
The guide was amazing! Not only was Daniela highly knowledgeable about the ruins, she was also very helpful at the ticket desk and pointing us in the right direction at the end of the tour. I also really liked the small museum on site, which highlights some sculptures and jewelry that have been found at the ruins - and of course Daniela was there explaining each exhibit! I recommended going early in the morning - this site is much less crowded than Pompeii but the morning tour was especially serene. Highly recommend this experience!
Claudia is a very good guide who we were passionate about, she knew how to interest children. She answered our questions.
Perfect in every way. Extremely knowledgeable guide provided an entertaining and educational experience. Highly professional. Highly recommended.
We booked this a few days in advance and received a whatsapp text the day before confirming Daniela would be our tour guide. Daniela met us promptly at 0830 and all we had to do was purchase our tickets to enter. Note, purchasing this does not include entry tickets. You will still need to purchase entry tickets or your own skip the line tickets. But when we went at 0830 there was no one there and it was not an issue. As a general tip, going earlier there are less people there. It starts to get busy around 1100. During the tour, Daniela was great and even went a little over our allotted time. Would certainly do again.
We had this tour with guide Silvia - she has a lot of knowledge, friendly and make our trip great! She showed us all good spots and give al her time to us.
Absolutely brilliant tour - Silvia was so knowledgeable and passionate about the site! Next time we will do the less known parts of the site I think!
