Knowledgeable and patient guide - We did a two hour tour with Eliana in September of 2024. Her knowledge of the area and passion for archaeology were very evident. Because of her high level of knowledge, given her years of education and experience, she spoke eloquently about many subjects. Her explanation of the people and commerce of Pompei, including aspects of their daily lives (diets, social status, relationship to Rome) was easy to understand. It felt much easier to empathize with these people from nearly 2,000 years ago than I expected. Her status as a guide was also great for our experience. We were allowed access to a villa, for example, that was not open to the general public. She seemed quite happy to move at our pace, pause where we wanted to ask questions, and skip areas that we found too crowded. She also kindly offered advice for our brief experience of Naples (her home town). We recommend listening to her recommendations, because the lady has good taste in pizza. We recommend Eliana as a guide!

A very pleasant discovery - We went to Pompeii last December 28th with Eliana for a 2 hour guided tour. We are a family of 4: parents plus two daughters aged 10 and 16. I relied on the good previous reviews and did well. I did the organization quickly: I went to the site and saw that it could be done from WhatsApp and in a few messages we agreed. Eliana arrived on time, helped us get tickets quickly and dedicated the first minutes to tuning in to us and our desires, understanding what our previous knowledge was. From there it was a truly personalized discovery because we agreed together on the tour to do and gradually asked our questions. It was a nice dialogue. I expected the usual default presentation and instead we found a professional who put us in a position to appreciate this heritage in our own way. At the end of the 2 hours he gave us directions to immerse ourselves in Pompeii on our own with more awareness. Thanks Eliana!

FANTASTIC TOUR OF POMPEII! - We had Ciccio as our archeologist guide and he was absolutely fantastic and a very, very nice guy! We felt like we really got to see the best highlights of Pompeii (which was a lot larger of a ruins complex than we realized)! He was extremely knowledgeable and provided a detailed tour and was able to answer our many questions! We had the most fabulous time AND he was also happy to take photos for us of our group on my phone and he has a great eye for photography too!

Perfect Guide - Great guide, able to impart her deep knowledge and understanding of the time, and engage in discussion. English excellent. I overheard other guides with groups and guides with only 2 people, they were not in her league.

Best way to tour Pompeii with private tour - We did 2 hour private tour with Eliana. I booked directly through her website after reading many tour reviews. She was excellent and I would highly recommend this tour. Her knowledge and insight of Pompeii made it even more fascinating to experience this wonderful place. To be able to ask endless questions on a private tour is really lovely so for our group of 4 it worked really well as we were able to cover so much of Pompeii with Eliana.
