We met Dario through a friend who lives in Naples. He was a FANTASTIC guide who's English is impeccable! Dario lead us through Pompeii and took us back in time by sharing stories of that amazing city's existence prior to Mt Vesuvius's explosion. He would pull us into the narrative of the daily lives of the residents and business owners. Dario was engaging and more than willing to answer any and all of our varied questions. If we taken the tour solo, we would have missed so much about the intricacies of Roman life in Pompeii. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Dario and highly suggest that you book a tour with him for Pompeii!!
