Great experience with our tour guide Francesco. He was very knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, hit the main points during the tour and very passionate about the site. This company was excellent to work with and I would recommend them to anyone wanting to visit Pompeii.

Roberto’s tour of Pompeii was brilliant. I was lucky enough to experience a virtual tour with Roberto during lockdown, and so when my sisters and I decided to visit Sorrento I knew I had to see if he was available to do an in-person tour. Roberto answered all of our questions, no matter how silly, with patience and a huge amount of detail. It is abundantly clear how knowledgable and passionate Roberto is about his subject. The tour was fascinating and his story telling brought the time of the Romans to life for us. I would recommend anyone visiting the area and Pompeii to book a tour with Roberto.

Roberto was absolutely amazing from pre-trip planning to an exceptional guided tour through Pompeii. He arranged for a car for pick up and drop off. Roberto's recommendation of a late afternoon tour afforded us the ability to see Pompeii without the crowds. Having an archeologist brought Pompeii to life. Thank you for a memorable afternoon.

Roberto is the best!!! He is a walking encyclopedia for all things Pompeii! His passion for the history of Pompeii is equally matched by his knowledge and expertise. He answered all of our questions with thorough and entertaining information. We were all so happy we decided to take this tour and that Roberto was our guide. Truly a highlight of our time in Italy!

🏆Amazing tour guide! We truly enjoyed our tour with Roberto. He showed us special features that you would not pick up on if you were on your own or even with another guide as he’s a professional archeologist. Highly recommend Roberto as he is very personable and knowledgeable.

Roberto was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly, as an archeologist he could easily answer all my questions about the excavations and by the way he has a great sense of humor! I highly recommend Roberto.
