We really enjoyed this whole experience. Our guide, Italo, was very knowledgeable as well as warm and entertaining. We learned a lot as well as having a great afternoon. Having our own guide was well worth the cost. The trip could not have gone better
Stefania provided us an incredible walking tour of Pompeii offering insightful knowledge of the ruins, and then off to the Archaeological Museum, local lunch, visit to the city center which complimented our experience, maximizing our time at this port. Highly recommend Tours of Naples as tour provider, accommodating our priorities with excellent driver and knowledgeable guide. Thanks Minerva!
