Highlight of our Family Cruise! What an extraordinary experience with Paolo and Sabrina and their family! We immediately felt at home and welcomed into their family. Their nephew Pasquale spoke fluent English which put my husband and my niece right at ease. They were so flexible when our port docking times changed and responded immediately the evening before our tour was scheduled. We were picked up at the port entrance and taken on a lovely tour of Napoli -- absolutely gorgeous! After a refreshing stop at Napoli's oldest cafe (with "un caffe' e sfogliatella), we journeyed to Pompeii (the new city) where we arrived at their gorgeous, lush Giardini Balistrieri. We were greeted with Prosecco (to toast my birthday) and some delicious appetizers with ingredients from their farm. We ALL enjoyed the cooking class -- Sabrina was so interesting in her explanation of the ingredients and the techniques. During our luncheon we were spoiled by huge plates of gnocchi with fresh tomato sauce cooked by Pasquale's mother Maria Rosaria ... and the dessert??? Amazing tiramisu. With such a lovely farm visit, we nearly forgot our main reason for visiting Pompeii which was to visit the old Pompeii ruins. That's where cousin Lello came in ... phenomenal guide who gave us such insight! We were driven back to the cruise ship with plenty of time, and full of exquisite memories. Paolo & Sabrina, we will be back!!! (and please send me that wine from Gragnano!)

Esperienza completa… abbiamo visitato gli scavi e fatto una bella passeggiata x la strada principale di Pompei, poi siamo arrivati in un giardino dai mille colori , profumi e sapori…abbiamo provato il piacere di toccare con mano e soprattutto assaporare tutte le delizie che ci sono state offerte…consiglio vivamente.

Stupenda giornata a Pompei durante il quale ho visitato i meravigliosi scavi accompagnati da una guida turistica, Lello, vero esperto; dopodiché con minivan siamo andati a mangiare nella campagna pompeiana presso i giardini Balestrieri dove l l'esperta Sabrina ci ha mostrato come fare gli gnocchi di patate. Abbiamo mangiato benissimo tutto fresco ed abbondante, ottimo il vino. Consiglio di fare questa esperienza ne vale veramente la pena; oltre alle location il tutto è organizzato in maniera eccellente.

Pomeriggio trascorso tra le meraviglie dell'antica città di Pompei accompagnati da una guida esperta e cordiale. Successivamente siamo stati accolti in un meraviglioso giardino nel quale la simpatica e gentilissima Sabrina ci ha insegnato a cucinare gli gnocchi in una cornice accogliente e calorosa. Pienamente soddisfatta dall'esperienza e sicuramente da consigliare!!!
