    My wife and I had the best experience at Pompeii. We highly recommend Teresa as a guide. Being that she is an archeologist she was so passionate giving us an insight into the history that we found very interesting & informative. She was always engaging and we got so much from the experience- grateful we did it.

    The experience was great. Our tour guide, Gennaro, was very knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions we had. He also made the tour entertaining and gave recommendations to continue exploring after the tour was over. I’m glad my wife and I did this tour because otherwise we wouldn’t have really known what we were looking at as we walked around Pompeii.
