This tour will take you to the discovery of a very famous archaeological site but with a rather unusual cut. We will discover together not only the buildings that characterize the site but also the people who lived there. How did the inhabitants of the city live? what was the condition of the women of Pompeii at the time of the eruption? How did they live and how did they carry out their daily activities? We will discover this and much more but lightly and in order to make everything accessible to anyone.
During our tour we will have the opportunity to discover various types of buildings: houses, shops, a spa and much more also based on the closures imposed by the Park management.

I participated in a group tour for families with children. My children were the youngest but they still managed to follow the tour. Sara was attentive, precise, exhaustive, and simple in her explanations. She was able to capture everyone's attention, both adults and children. He recounted and described many details of life in Pompeii with amusing anecdotes. Highly recommended!
We took a 2-hour guided tour having purchased the ticket that included all the villas. The visit was complete and with an explanation full of details. Recommended with kids since Sara introduced us to the life of Pompeii in a fun way and updating the history of that time with customs and facts of today.
Our group was composed of three families with children between 10 and 15 years old and we were looking for a guide suitable specifically for the kids. Sara was very engaging and completely met our expectations. The time (2 hours) flew by and we all managed to follow without losing concentration and attention. She managed to tell us about Pompeii through the life, the anecdotes, and the places we walked through. Sara also used several parallels between the past and the present, opening up new reflections that I found extremely interesting, touching on aspects that I had never considered. I recommend her to everyone and even more so to young people who need more lively methods. Thank you!
It was wonderful!!! Our tour guide was so informative and engaging and was absolutely fascinating.
Sara is truly special, with friendliness and extreme competence she transformed our tour into a walk among friends who laugh and discover that, after all, compared to 2000 years ago, things haven't changed that much (apart from the toilet paper 😂). Thank you Sara!
Sara was amazing. We have a 6-yr old and a 10-yr old and keeping them involved while walking in the heat is no easy feast. We created wonderful family memories for them and we enjoyed our tour as well while Sara kept the stories going.
A journey to discover Pompeii accompanied by the words of someone who knows how to infect you with their passion....there is no better way to "taste" the greatness of the place while living immersed in the daily life of 79 AD...for a few hours. Heartfelt thanks.
Sara is a fantastic guide; she explains in a simple, engaging, and fun way, and is very knowledgeable.
Pompeii is an intense place and visiting it with Sara, who explains even the most tragic information with her direct, sweet and playful way was very very pleasant.
The tour was in Pompeii (but without writer). We are a CAI group and found Sara on the web. Very competent and prepared. Only in this way can you entertain while having fun and always keeping your attention high. Really valuable. We also met for a morning in Naples.
