Gennaro provides the ultimate in care and service. It is quite apparent that he loves sharing Italy with his clients, and doesn't hold back on accommodating his new friends in every way. If you want a really warm and relaxing day with a professional that knows his way around, do not hesitate to book him. Thank you Gennaro for a really wonderful day on the Amalfi Coast! Looking forward to drinking Mario's farm fresh Limoncello with our friends here in California - thank you again for arranging this all. Ciao for now.Can't give Gennaro a High Enough Rating!!!

Raffaele is an excellent guide! He made our tour feel like a very personal experience, not only because of his amazing in-depth knowledge of the history of Pompeii (before and after the AD 79 eruption) but his stories of the people who lived there made the place come alive!The ONLY way to see Pompeii!

We had a great time with Gennaro. He really made us feel like we were part of the city and enjoyed walking around the streets, enjoying the sights, sounds and tastes of local Napoli. It was very informative and we learned a lot and after the tour we really felt familiar with the place as well as a good feel for where we were. This was our first day and after the tour we already had a good idea where we wanted to go next and what to do. Many thanks Gennaro. Great Time

Three of us travelled to Napoli for my mother’s 70th birthday and my partner fancied trying a food tour of the city. I’m not a big foodie, but I love history and Gennaro balanced a perfect mix of both. We ate amazing food that we never would have thought to try and learnt so much about the city, we will forever be enamoured by Napoli and its rich cultural history! Thanks Gennaro for such a fun day!Super experience

3 February 2025

Raffaele was fantastic. We did a day trip from Rome with my husband and 2 kids (13 and 15). Unfortunately both kids were a bit unwell on the day, however, they still loved their Pompeii experience, largely due to the information and insights shared by Raffaele. He was friendly, easy to understand and able to answer any questions without hesitation. He is very passionate about the Pompeii site and the discoveries there. It was very busy on the day we were there, however, it did not bother us at all as Raffaele was able to take us on routes that were not overrun with people. It was a very interesting and enjoyable experience and I thoroughly recommend Raffaele.Raffaele was great!

Raffaele could not have been a more perfect professore for my curious family. We had done our homework on Pompeii so Raffaele was able to tailor our adventure to our knowledge base. I would hire him again. As an archaeologist, his knowledge is extensive and current. Hire him!

(About local Barbara )

20 January 2025

Ever since we got home our teenage kids have been answering "what was the best part of your three weeks in Italy?" by talking about our day in Pompeii and Herculaneum with Barbara. After comparing the cost options and logistics of two separate tours, we combined both sites with one guide. Barbara was expert, informative and passionate, connecting the two sites so we could focus on what each shows best. We particularly appreciated her adjustments to follow up the kids' interests, and how she let us explore at our own pace while also keeping things moving so we got to see as much as possible. Highly recommended.Patient and flexible expert guide

Manu🇪🇸 Spain

(About local Gennaro )

19 January 2025

We are a young couple on our early 30s from Spain. We did two amazing tours with Gennaro, one by walking and one by car, the first at the historical centre of Naples (including the Decumani, Pignasecca market and the Quartieri Spagnoli, plus recommendations for other areas) and the second outside of the city, through the Amalfi coast. It was our first time doing something like this, and Gennaro has exceeded all our expectations. Everything you can read on the reviews is true: he goes above and beyond to give you the best of Naples, whether you’re looking for culture, food, history or entertainment. My recommendation is that you get in touch with him and tell exactly what you’re looking for, and he will provide. The tour at Naples was the best introduction possible to the city in just a few hours, while the Amalfi tour was the most beautiful day-trip that we could have asked for. Everything was 10 out of 10. His knowledge of the region, his recommendations and honesty, his sense of humour, even his driving! Thanks so much for your time and dedication, Gennaro. We really hope to meet you in Naples again! Si eres español y entiendes más o menos el inglés o el italiano, tengas la edad que tengas, no te vas a arrepentir de hacer cualquier tour con Gennaro, merece la pena cada céntimo y te da una visión de Nápoles que no está ni en las guías, ni en blogs de internet y por supuesto tampoco está en Instagram. Escríbele, le cuentas lo que más te interesa de la ciudad (sabe de comida, sabe de historia…), y él te monta un tour de 10. El mejor!!! The best decision of our trip to Naples!

We ate the pizza we made and was so tasty and fulfilling! While sharing with us all the secrets for making our ow authentic napoletan pizza, Gennaro was also telling us history of food in Napoli and history of the city! He his so professional, knowledgeable, fun, and so easy to interact! As time passes we were convinced that all the reviews we red on this site they were not just true but they were excactly describing the personality of Gennaro! We felt after few minutes that we found a fantastic guide but also a new friend! Not only: his passion for Napoli made us choosing him as our guide for the rest of our days in Napoli: 3 days and 3 days touring with Gennaro! He was always on time, always showing all the attention with small deteils, very dedicated to us! The way he showed the city: historical part mixed with the hidden gems he selected for us was one of the highlights of our entire trip to italy! We already wrote a lot ! We could much more We just want to thank Gennaro for sharing with us his city! In all meanings and all the aspects History, hidden gems, beauty, and of course food!

Noemi could not have been more lovely and charming - she made all of us ( my wife and I and three 13 year olds) feel welcome and engaged on our journey through Pompeii. The weather was cloudy and a bit rainy but Noemi was a ray of sunshine. She shared her knowledge, her personal stories, made us laugh and sing - literally! And she navigated our moody teens with kindness and compassion. We learned so much about the daily life of the Pompeiians as well as their tragic demise. It is a truly remarkable archeological site - mind blowing really. So glad we got to share this with Noemi! Noemi is a gem!

We are a family of 6 who spent the day in Naples coming from Rome via train. We loved our walking tour of the highlights of Naples with Raffaele. Raffaele was very knowledgeable about his city. We learned the history of the city while visiting sites such as the palace, opera house, spanish quarter and the Cathedral of San Gennaro just to name a few. We sampled food along the way and truly enjoyed our day long trip. Rafaelle’s passion for his city is infectious and we all came away loving Naples!Walking tour of Naples

We had previoulsy passed by Napoli on the way to other places in the area (Capri, Ravello etc) but we had never dedicated time to discovering this fascinating city. On our recent trip to Campania, we made a decision to stay in Napoli for a few days to get to know it once and for all. We reserved a one day tour of the city with Raffaele who was very responsive when we booked our trip. He made sure that we were happy with the itinerary he proposed and was open to suggestions from us as to what we wanted to see and do. On the tour, he showed us around all the main sites, stopping on the way to delve into Napoli's history and culture. He was keen for us to get a real feel for the city and he shared some fascinating stories about its colourful and varied history, as well as details of current everyday life. Raffaele is very knowledgeable about his city and its history and he made every effort to ensure that we saw the most important as well as lesser known (and sometimes hidden from view) sites and he explained them well, at times with with fun fact stories, giving us suggestions of places to visit the next day on our own. He also showed us all the local food specialities and knew exactly where to go for the best caffe in town (and pizza clearly!). We would 100% recommend Raffaele as your guide for your trip to Napoli.

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Gennaro. He picked us up at our AirBnb, which took the stress out of our morning. He told us all about the history of Naples and the Amalfi Coast. Our drive was relaxing, with beautiful views and commentary. Each stop was planned, so we could enjoy all of the sights, with time for extra exploring if we wanted. The food recommendations were perfect, and we visited the special pastry shop featured on Stanley Tucci’s Searching For Italy. We added an optional Wine and Food Pairing at a winery on the slopes of Mt. Vesuvius. It was a special ending of a perfect day. Gennaro was extremely helpful when we had to change our travel plans the following day, due to an unexpected train strike. Truly a 5 star experience!!Perfect day in the Amalfi Coast!
