Outstanding tour. Fiorella was one of the best guides we have ever had during our many travels abroad Exceptionally knowledgeable and enthusiastic.

Maria Laura was terrific. Informed, interesting, responsive. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with her and learned a lot!

Fiorella was fantastic, our whole family (some who were not super keen for 8 hours walking) loved the day. Fiorella was keen to converse and discuss elements of the ruins with us, and really impressed everyone with her knowledge: right down to the engineering styles of the buildings. Having someone so passionate and informed just made the whole experience far better. She also periodically asked for feedback on the tour and how we were going, which was really lovely and made us all feel comfortable asking further questions. She also made sure we got a chance to say if there was anything in particular we wanted to see which was great as one of us had studied Pompeii this year and really wanted to visit a few particular places. She was very receptive and encouraging of any questions or clarifications, and particularly to engagement with discussion as a result of previous knowledge or drawing conclusions. We were also never rushed which was very nice on an extended tour, and could rest whenever we wished (fortunately we were so interested and keen to see more that we never needed to rest!). The whole family enjoyed Fiorella's company to the point that we invited her to lunch, and we had a great time. She showed us the best pizza in Napoli (it really was the best we had, and we ate a lot of pizza), explained which combinations were local and was very happy to recommend pizzas she thought were good when asked. Not only that, but she encouraged us to try more local dishes that we would never have ordered on our own. Not once was it disappointing! We had excellent gelato and espresso all on her recommendation. Not only that, she also gave us a mini tour of Naples as we walked through the get to the Napoli Museum, and it was really great to learn about the nativity scenes that come from the region. Not once during the whole day did she not know the answer to whatever question was asked, whether about Pompeii, life in Naples, the way these nativity scenes were built or the symbolism behind common elements in them. The archaeological museum was also very interesting, particularly learning from Fiorella about the different styles of art and seeing the preserved frescoes. She even knew about the historical significance of the museum building itself! Our only regret was that we didn't have another day to spend with her! She made us feel very welcome, was very engaging and kept our entire family entertained and educated for 8 hours on a walking tour. We would definitely recommend her, would be very keen to do it again!
