I'm Marcello U., your private tour guide in Naples
Guide #26215
Hi everybody, my name is Marcello. I'm specialized in high grade archeological and historical tours. Born and raised in Naples and belonging to a very old Neapolitan famiIy I've got the official license of Professional Tour Guide in 2000. Archaeological and historical tours are my core business but always based on keeping my clients "AWAY FROM THE MASSIVE TOURISM". I love my job. I love my country. I love giving not simple orientations but the "real essence" of every single spot you are interested in, observing all safety measures to reduce the Covid19 diffusion. My range of activities is the whole Campania Region, including all its archaeological and historical sites, like Pompeii, Herculaneum, Napoli, Paestum, royal palaces and museums. I'm also specialized in the painting of '500 and '600, like Caravaggio, Tiziano, Raffaello, Jusepe de Ribeira, Battistello Caracciolo, and all the painters who" mastered the light". In 2015 I've got specialization in roman currency as well. I do cooperate with the U. S. Syracuse University, and over the past years, I had interesting experiences while working with some International TV productions as expert in archeology and art. Some reviews about me have been written by Kerry Mullis (Noble Price), Donna Tart (Pulitzer in 2014), Zubin Meta ( World's greatest Orchestra Director), Jude Law, Hugh Jackman, the Jobs. . . . . . . . You can see me on the CBS Sunday morning news runned on May 19th 2019 or using the link https://www. cbsnews. com/video/a-perfect-cup-of-espresso/ I also worked with Samantha Brown, american documentary maker, for the documentary 'Passport to Europe' and recently I've been working for the worldwide magazine Conde N'Est Traveler as local expert in history. What else I can say, this is what I do with passion and responsibility……. . and always having a lot of fun. - Licensed Professional Tour Guide by Regione Campania Aut. n. 4071 - High Specialization Course in "Pompeii and the Sub-Vesuvian Roman Cities" - CFE, Cambridge First Certificate, British Council Institute of Naples None

Marcello U. is a class act — and an exceptional guide. He made our visit to Pompeii the highlight of our trip. His knowledge of Pompeii is extraordinary, but what really stood out was his passion and enthusiasm for Pompeii, Naples, and the art, archaeology, and culture of the region. Marcello brings history to life. He shared fascinating stories about both ancient and...

Marcello was incredible and had a great depth of knowledge about Pompeii. He took us to all the great spots (including one incredible one that he worked on as an archeology student) and taught us far more about the city than we expected. On top of his great historical knowledge, he knew exactly where to stop so we could find some shade while he taught us about various...
