We did the private tour of Herculaneum and Vesuvius. Our archaeologist guide at Herculaneum was amazing! Luciano was positively bursting with enthusiasm and information. We learned so much from him! Our driver Francesco did an excellent job of navigating small streets and difficult terrain while also pointing out the sites. Great tour!

I had the most passionate, funny and very knowledgeable guide ever. Herculaneum is full of history and well-preserved ruins that are standing for more than 2000 years. Is a very rich place full of details and important historical elements that make you travel in time. Our guide makes 2h tour flight by so fast. He was one of the most passionate guides I ever had with strong knowledge about the place and it was engaging with the group every single minute. He makes us feel there!!! I´ve learned so much with him! Definitely a very worth it tour with him!!
