Excellent guide - Ginevra had arranged for the two of us to participate in a small (max 14 people) guided tour of Herculaneum. The guide – Loretta – was an excellent guide, her enthusiasm and explanations made us feel as if we were walking in a living city.

Herculaneum - Our tour of Herculaneum was spectacular! Ancient ruins that are largely intact and easy to visualize how they looked centuries ago. Our guide, Loretta, was fantastic. She was enthusiastic, knowledgable and totally professional: she really made the site come to life. We learned so much while having a lot of fun.
