Hello! I 'm Barbara. I'm an authentic Neapolitan, born and raised here. I love this city and its environs. Unlike so many who live here in the Napoli area, I constantly take advantage of the incredible myriad of experiences available here. Growing up I turned my passion in my field of studies and expertise into my livelihood. I have a masters degree in History and archeology from the University Orientale of Naples (one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in Europe) and I love to constantly upgrade my knowledge, especially about archaeology. Archeology is so fascinating for me because it is not a right science, a lot is already known and there is so much more yet to be known. About archaeology there is no greater source of information than in Pompeii with its constant and amazing new discoveries. The first time I visited Pompei I was 8 years old. I was with my mother, who is a history teacher and most of all a passionate scholar of Roman history. She shared with me her passion for history and art, and I love to do the same for you on my tours. My job is not just a job it's my passion, I LOVE making my clients knowledgeable about Naples and its neighbors, which is like nowhere else you have ever been on Earth. Who better to open your eyes to the charms of the fascinating city of Naples and all of the Campania region more than someone who is deeply in love with it? I love what I do, always sharing my knowledge to create fun, informative and memorable tour experiences, time after time. I think that every client is unique and therefore so is every tour. Whether you have been here many times or are a newbie, I focus on your preferences and create the ultimate itinerary that fits you and yours. As a result, together we build up a tour program that is sure to be delightful and most memorable experience for you and yours. For me, this is not a job, it's a joy! No scripted speeches or monologues. What you'll experience is an attentive, engaging and informative tour. I feel I am the luckiest person in Naples that I get to spend my time essentially on vacation with my guests for the day and having an awesomely fun time doing so. The interactivity, the curiosity, and the enthusiastic participation of my guests make my job so much more rewarding and fun. Customizing tours to specific interests and locales satisfies my need to constantly be creative. I get so much pleasure from experiencing memorable moments in history, architecture sights, amazing food, old traditions and spectacular views with you. Please join me on an unforgettable adventure you will keep with you for a lifetime. Master's Degree in history and art Licensed tour guide None.

Overview of your Naples tour

If you are travelling in Italy don't lose the chance to visit the best preserved roman cities. We pick up at your Hotel in Rome for an unforgettable tour of Pompei and Herculaneum. Once the famous writer Wolfgang Goethe cynically said "Never has any catastrophe brought so much joy as the one that buried these Vesuvian cities". Sad but true. These are two magical archeological sites, that catch everyone imagination. Ancient Roman cities that vanished overnight in a volcanic eruption. Under the volcanic ash, the cities had been beautifully preserved, an truly open window on the roman time; 2000 years old streets, public buildings like theatres, thermal baths, Forum, temples. But these cites offer more then this. They show us the daily life of the citizens who lived here; their houses, their jobs, their food, their personal stories, their fears, their ambitions. The story of the Pompeian people seems to come out of the fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty, immortalized in its immobility as under a spell.
