Paolo brought the site to life! - We could not recommend this enough. So much was covered in the time we had. Paolo was an engaging guide with infectious enthusiasm for Pompei. Pitching his talks to both adults and engaged children. If you have a wish to see pompei, book this trip and you will not be dissapointed

Amazing experience! - Our tour guide, Patrizia, was amazing! She was very knowledgable, managed time efficiently, and made learning about Pompei fun for our whole family (8yr - 62yr). I would full heartedly recommend this private tour to anyone.

An amazing experience! - We were so amazed by the vibrancy, detail, and three-dimensionality of the paintings on the walls in the houses. Our guide Riccardo did a wonderful job of bringing the Roman world to life through his thoughtful and engaging tour.

Pompei Tour with family and friends - I really like our tour guide. He was natural and relaxed and kept the pace of the tour manageable for my 81 year old mom. It was a great experience!

5 Sisters - Raffaele was amazing! Really provided the story & brought Pompeii to life for us! Very much recommend Raffaele & this tour. His knowledge about the history, reconstructed areas & ongoing archaeological digs was phenomenal! He was very personable & receptive to all of our questions! He also takes great photos & selfies! The 5 sisters from Florida thank you for a fabulous day!

Without Raffaele as a guide, i doubt "the Pompei experience" would have been as good as it actually was. - If i could i would give Raffaele 6 stars. He is Italian but with his perfect english was able to transmit all the magic of Pompei even in a foregn language. It was obvious that he is an archeologist. He was able to answer all our questions in a professional and yet an understandable way, challenging our imagination so we could not only see what was in front of us but at the same time imagining and picturing how it was thousands years ago. I don't think i could speak highly enough about Raffaele and his tour. Going in detailes, the pick up information were perfect and there was no waiting time as he was already there waiting for us. The value for money was very good considering the high level of the tour and i loved the fact that we could adjust the tour as we liked, making specific requests to Raffaele on specific spots to visit, which he granted them all with a smile and a "no problem" attitude. Tips for travellers...ask Raffaele where to go eat afterwords. He sent us to a place away for turistic routes and we were extrimely happy. Dear Raffaele, i want to tank you directly to have been able to be our friend instead of just our guide making the entire experience unforgottable.

Visit Pompeii with the expert! - This was my second tour wIth Raffaele after my first tour with him in Naples last year. As expected, he was fantastic. His depth of knowledge (he holds Ph D in the subject and is an archeologist himself!) and friendly personality make touring with him a true pleasure and I learned so much about early Roman life from my visit to Pompeii with him. He also gave some great recommendations about what to see in Pompeii after the tour for those who wanted to explore the site on their own! I highly recommend Naples Grand Tour and especially Raffaele! Buon Lavoro!
