A walk through the temples - The visit was very fascinating, both the museum and the archaeological part. Our guide, Fiorenza Monzo, was clear and friendly in managing the visit. Even very competent, she is in fact ready to answer the most disparate curiosities.

High cultural profile visit with Ivan - We have had many guided tours over the years, but today we had a unique, very pleasant experience of great cultural depth. The guide, Ivan Tornese, immersed us in the historical reconstruction, gave us his experience in the field, which allowed us to fully understand the place where we were. Congratulations to Ivan and grateful to you for "get your guide" to take advantage of such professionalism and therefore satisfy the most refined palates

Excellent afternoon in Paestum with a terrific guide (Maria) - Went to Paestum with Maria as my archaeological guide. She was incredibly knowledgeable and lovely and was able to answer my many questions. She added lots of historical information which helped the site come to life and place it in context. I highly recommend her.

Paestum beautiful trip super recommended - Beautiful Paestum, clean and well organized archaeological park and city. Fiorenza, our kind, knowledgeable and fantastic guide involved adults and children (12 year olds) making us relive the ancient city with smells and colours. Nice and well organized museum, interesting diver's stuff. Thanks to the guide, this tour becomes truly special.

Perfect tour of Paestum - Mario was fantastic! He was fun and open minded, and down to earth! We told him our time constraints and limitations and he perfectly adjusted the whole tour to our needs. We enjoyed the way he presented the information and made it very interesting. Ask for Mario you don't be disappointed!! Also we found a cab driver, Antonio at the train station who held our bags and met us at a specified time to take us back to the train station. The whole day was perfect.

A real addition to the site - The museum is located across the road and was recently redesigned. And that was very successful. The layout and arrangement of the artefacts is open, well documented and illuminated. It covers level -1, ground floor and + 1 and +2 floor.
It gives a nice illustration of the decoration of the temples as it must have been earlier. Very colorful and exuberant.
The combination ticket also provides entrance to the museum and costs €18/pp
