Ciao! My name is Giada, which means a little green precious stone (Jade). As my name suggests I am a tiny, smiling and very talkative person, and a professional licensed tourist guide of the Campania Region. I was born and still live in Salerno, a charming medieval town on the seaside, outside the beaten path, where the first western school of medicine was born. I haven't been always interested in what I am doing, because my first passion was the theatre. I studied classical dance and violin for a long time. Those are anyway different forms of arts and so at the moment I finished high school I decided to improve my knowledge about history of art. I studied 3 years at the University of Salerno, and then other 2 years at the University of Rome, to be an art historian. The decision to be a guide arrived later, when I was in the capital and was doing tours for a particular exhibition the University organised. I enjoyed so much that period, and I loved the job that tourists really appreciated, giving great feedback. I decided to study English to do the exam for the licence and here I am! Today it's not about what I do anymore, but what I am. . . a guide. I worked also as a trip leader, for a 17days tour of the South of Italy, so I know what taking care of tourists means, and as an event organizer for temporary exhibitions. Thanks to these job experiences I could improve my skills and I am now very organized and detail-oriented. What I will offer you is an experience, I hope you can share and remember. Tours of history, art, monuments, and landscapes of Salerno, or Amalfi, the main maritime republic, a lovely beautiful village on the famous coast, or a jump into the ancient Greek, and roman, history and culture you can live again visiting the archaeological site of Poseidonia/Paestum. It is also a time we will spend together, walking and talking with a deep insight into the real life of my hometown, and not only, giving you a taste of all the aspects, including local food, accompanied with my passion, enthusiasm, and personality. If this is what you are looking for, come to Campania Region and contact me. I am more than happy and willing to customize any tours. Licensed tourist guide of Campania Region since 2014. Master degree in History of arts at the University of Rome "La Sapienza". Bachelor's degree in Cultural Heritage at the University of Salerno. Master in Event Organisation. I am not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

    Giada was the best. We strongly recommend her tour. Her knowledge and expertise was astounding. Pompeii is much larger than we had envisioned. Giada was able to navigate the area with ease .

    Giada was an excellent guide for our small group of 4. She really knew the backstories and archeology of Oplontis and Pompeii. Very fascinating. There was a little snag caused by the railroad going on strike just when we finished the Oplontis tour, but we fortunately found a nice gentlemen who drove us to Pompeii. Giada knew of the issue and we were lucky to see her again...

    We stopped in Pompeii briefly on our way to Siena. Giada was such a talented, informative, expressive, lively, delightful, and wonderful guide! She strategically packed so much into two hours. She really made Pompeii come alive for us! Thanks for a great tour, Giada!

    This was one of the best tours I've ever experienced. Our guide Giada was extremely knowledgeable and experienced with Pompei and MTV. We were a group of 4, which was a perfect number, as Pompei is a heavily toured location. Most of the other groups we saw were massive, while ours was more intimate and gave each of us more time to ask questions. There were no questions...
