"We did the all day Amalfi tour with Gennaro. From the beginning to the end, he was fabulous. He tells us about the history and shares many interesting stories. He listened to everything we asked and delivered what we wanted. Especially amazing was the cafe in Ravello. We walked for a place to have a drink and look at fantastic view of the water. The cafe he directed us to was incredible. The view was spectacular, high up and we were able to enjoy the amazing weather and the view with our loved ones. Highly recommend him!"

"Once in a lifetime trip for hard working blue collar people from Texas. Hired Gennaro on a wing and a prayer for our first day in Italy because we had no idea where to start our week long trip. Best thing I ever did. He took care of my husband and I from the moment I booked him. (Yes, even before we left Texas). Trust me when I advise you to hire this man as soon as you decide to travel!!! He is honest, kind, hilarious, very knowledgeable about things that were important to us. He made our tour strictly around our interest and then threw in stuff we had no idea we would fall love with. I will hire him again while we are here so I do not waste money and time. He actually saved us money with his ideas and personally drove us everywhere. Trust me when I tell you, LET HIM DRIVE YOU! YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!!! He sincerely took care of us as a local with pride and knowledge. I seriously cannot say enough great things about how he actually made our trip a huge success!!! Do yourself a favor and let him help you. I usually never leave reviews but I know the value of a dollar and just want to help other people!!!! "

"We spent a full day with Francesco exploring Herculaneum and Pompeii as a family of four (two boys aged 7 and 10) and it was genuinely one of the highlights of our trip. Francesco is a trained archaeologist who grew up in this part of Italy, and that combination of academic knowledge and local roots makes him exceptional. He doesn’t just recite facts; he brings these places to life in a way that had our kids genuinely hooked. That’s no small thing when you’re asking a 7-year-old to care about ancient ruins. His English is excellent — he lived in the UK for a period — and he has that rare ability to pitch his explanations perfectly, whether he’s talking to the adults or crouching down to explain something to the boys at their level. What really set Francesco apart was his flexibility and calm when things went sideways. Our train from Naples was significantly delayed and he simply reorganised the itinerary on the spot to make the timings work, then drove us all in his car between the two sites himself. In between, he took us for lunch at a local spot nowhere near the tourist trail — exactly the kind of place you’d never find on your own. He also seems to know everyone in the area, which gives you that reassuring sense that you’re in genuinely good hands rather than just being another booking on someone’s calendar. We would recommend Francesco without hesitation and would book with him again in a heartbeat."

"Francesco was amazing!!! I can’t recommend him highly enough, his knowledge of Pompeii and Herculaneum is based on real life experience as both a local, born and raised in Pompeii and as a trained archeologist who even has artifacts that he personally excavated inside of the museum at Pompeii! Not only is he knowledgeable, he is enthusiastic, interesting and super friendly! His English is amazing and he keeps a good pace without making you feel rushed. Highly recommend booking a tour with Francesco - because why would you take an archeological tour with anyone other than an experienced and personable archeologist!!!"

"We had toured Pompeii and Herculeum one time before several years ago. Our traveling companions had never seen it, so we agreed to tour it again. It turns out that we got just an average tour last time, and the tour with Raffaele this time was so so much better. We saw much more and learned much more, and it was an incredibly better experience. Raffaele is the best. Extremely knowledgeable and wonderfully personable. Can’t say enough about him. "

"Vitalija was a great guide took us to Pompei and herculium. Tons of knowledge of both areas and took us to a small restaurant with great food. Definitely recommend!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed two mornings with Francesco at Herculaneum and Pompeii. He was very knowledgeable and a delightful guide. We highly recommend him."

"My wife, my mother-in-law and I were excited to see Pompeii for the first time and had no idea that we would be getting the best tour guide the city of Pompeii has to offer. From the moment we met Francesco, he took us under his wings and gave us one of the best walking tours that we could have imagined. His incredible knowledge of every detail of the city was magnificent. It felt like we were with an old friend, who also happened to be the smartest & nicest guy in the room. His archeological background only made the day better. We had so much fun learning about all the history and experiencing it first hand. Francesco took such good care of all of us and we all had so much fun exploring all the ruins and learning about everything. He really made our trip to Naples and we had one of the best days of our trip because of Francesco. If you are lucky enough, you will get to have him as your guide too. "

"The tour of Pompeii & Herculaneum is a must do together. As Raffaele explains, each site is a piece of the puzzle of what happened that day in 79AD & they show different aspects of daily life. He gave us a great understanding of the sites & really brought them to life. Raffaele is easy to talk to, extremely knowledgeable, & a genuinely nice guy. I highly recommend his tour because I think the sites would have been overwhelming & difficult to fully appreciate without his guidance. "

"Francesco is a wonderful and generous guide whose passion for his home town and archeology shone through each of the stories he shared with us. His shared his expert knowledge with joy and zest, maintaining a pace that had us all, including our 3 teenage boys, hanging into his every word. Francesco has been the best tour guide we have had during our time in Italy. Pompeii is a huge complex site, however Francesco made sure that we not only saw but understood the best parts of it. He taught us to recognise specific aspects of the site for ourselves so that we were able to interpret what we saw around us. He answered the questions that popped into our heads as we moved around the site. Don’t miss having Francesco take you to the Herculaneum site as well, where the artefacts and preserved remains of are even more amazing. Coming all the way from Australia Francesco was happy to help us with working out the trains to get to Pompeii from Rome. Then as soon as a train strike impacted part of our travel he was in communication with us to help make sure we were still able to get to Pompeii. We cannot recommend Francesco more highly as a guide. He will transport you back in time and bring Pompeii and Herculaneum alive especially for you. "
