We had a delightful and informative visit to Herculaneum with Raffaele. He emphasized how tragic the eruption in 79 CE was for the residents, who fled to the water for safety. It was sad to see skeletons of bodies that were pushed into the walls by the sea. The temperature of the air was estimated to be so high that wooden beams all around the town turned to carbon rather than burning. We were surprised how many of the buildings were two stories. Raffaele showed us all the highlights of the ruins and wall paintings and mosaic fountains. It was fascinating to learn about the history and culture from a trained archaeologist. After the visit, he recommended we try a restaurant in Sorrento, so we headed there and had a lovely lunch at a seaside restaurant. Highly recommend a visit, tour or other heritage exploration with Raffaele.
Cristina led us on a wonderful tour. She spoke excellent English and explained the features of our visited sites clearly. She has an in depth knowledge of not only the history of Florence but the culture,economics and politics too.Cristina was able to answer our many questions clearly.We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and highly recommend her services.
Our experience started with great communication from the time of our booking. Dina was very attentive in responding to ensure we received her responses quickly so we could make our decisions and purchases as some attractions and times sell out. She provided full details of what to expect during the process on the bookings. Fortunately we booked well enough in advance that we were able to secure the tickets and times we wanted. As the trip approached, her communication continued. She coordinated our meet up location based upon where our tour started and the day before our tour communicated wonderfully on where and how to locate her. This turned out not to even be a search as she spotted us and approached unhesitatingly. She is an absolutely wonderful host in her city and started us off at one of her favorite historical coffee bars. Her knowledge and passion for her city and country is evident in her presentations during her tours. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience spending the day with her. I highly recommend a private tour with Dina to gain that one-on-one experience and be ably to ask questions and communicate. She truly loves what she does and it is felt.
Cristina was our best guide in Italy. She is so knowledgeable and makes everything relatable to all ages. Our children ages 17, 14 and 12 said it was their favorite tour. She even took us to an amazing spot for lunch and introduced us to the owner before going our separate ways. My kids say “she kept us interested and was to the point”, “super, super and customized our tour perfectly”, and “she actually made me fully enjoy the tour even though I don’t like tours.” Haha Do not hesitate to book with Cristina. I will recommend her to all of my friends. Buon Natale!!
