Pompeii Archaeological Park

My tour of Pompeii is tuned on your will and physical attitude. The city is roughly 150 acres large, it hosted once approximately 18000 inhabitants, so the walking tour will be focused on the highlights surrounding the ancient Forum. Would there be any special request please let me know ahead of time: we can plan the itinerary together! In any case, most of the following places will be thoroughly visited: the Forum and its public buildings, The Thermal Bath, The Big and the Small Theatre, a tavern, a bakery, and one or two wonderful private houses.

My family had such an amazing experience with Fabrizio on this tour. Pompeii is a huge site with so many things to see, but Fabrizio made sure that we saw all of the most important things, while providing so much information about the artifacts, structures, and stories. Following Pompeii, Fabrizio drove us to Cantina Del Vesuvio on the side of the volcano - a lovely vinyard where we had samples of wines and a fantastic lunch. Although we had some clouds, the views were beautiful and the hosts of the vinyard were such nice folks. Honestly, this was the best tour my family has ever done. Fabrizio made everything effortless and enjoyable, from helping us pre-book tickets, to picking us up with his van in Naples (and dropping us off at museum afterwards). Also, having an archeologist on the tour of Pompeii (we also visited Herculaneum with him) made it unforgettable. HIGHLY recommended!! Thank you for great memories, Fabrizio!!

We were fortunate to tour Pompeii with a wonderful and knowledgeable private guide. Fabrizio Belleni made this unique experience even more enjoyable than we could have imagined. There is so much to see and so much information to absorb and Fabrizio organized our time in the most organized and efficient way. All while making sure we were having a great time. I was aware of the many large tours all around us. Those guides need to stop, talk, move on while people hurry to catch up. With Fabrizio we could ask questions, if something caught our attention, we were able to stop. For most of us, Pompeii is a once of a lifetime visit, I suggest you make the most of it by having Fabrizio be your guide.

What a fantastic day. Picked up at our hotel and guided through Pompeii with historical details we would never have known. Then on to a delicious lunch at the winery. We left giggling and full of Italian (Neapolitan) hospitality. Could not have been better. Highly recommended!!

WOW. What an incredible day! Fabrizio was punctual, informative, and friendly as he led us on our tour of pompeii. His archaeological knowledge really added a depth of understanding and appreciation for the entire experience. We felt as if the perfect amount of information was offered in the time we were allotted, and left feeling a sense of both reverence and amazement. Lunch was absolutely fantastic; a great selection of wine, delicious spaghetti, and pastiera for dessert made for the perfect meal. Truly unforgettable!!

Fabrizio was an outstanding tour guide. He preped us for the experience and checked on us as we ate our lunch and tasted wine. He had good knowledge of the grapes and the wine making process. A very enjoyable experience. A very professional escort.
