Pompeii Tour Guide.
Lucia was very knowledgeable and guided a very good tour. The length, 3 hours, was very good. She lives near Positano and is very knowledgeable about the area. She arranged for a driver to get us to and from Pompeii. Would definitely use her services again. Thank you Lucia

A tour with flakes in ancient Pompeii
We stayed in a group of friends for 5 hours immersed in the beauty of Pompeii's past thanks to the exquisite narratives of our guide Aunt Lucy. It was an unforgettable day a tour that we will never forget thanks to the many facets that the knowledgeable guide showed us and pointed out throughout the visit. If you are in the area and want a guide with a capital G don't waste time and contact Aunt Lucy.

Perfect Day in Pompeii!!
We had been looking forward to seeing Pompeii for years, and Lucy made the experience! Although parts of the park were still closed due to covid, we felt like we didn’t miss a thing! EXCELLENT GUIDE! She knew sooo many details, answered all our questions, was super flexible and helped us plan our day, and overall one of our best trips ☺️
Would ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND to anyone who wants to do a tour in the region (she speaks excellent English!)! We are looking forward to using her again soon!!!

Best guide for Pompei
I had the best bespoken tour of my life!
Even if the price seems a bit high this tour is worth to!
Lucia is an official tour guide from Campania and she has a great knowledge of all the area of Pompei.
She also knows lots of stories about the ancient Romans and their lifestyle.
Without her, you waste lots of time in seeing ruins and not understanding where you are. But with Lucia it's all great and you wouldn't end this tour.
Grazie Mille cara!
