Welcome! My name is Roberto. I am an Archaeologist and an official Tour Guide of Italy I obtained bachelor degree in Cultural Heritage, master degree in Classical Archaeology and the diploma of Post-Graduate School in Archeological Heritage. I have been an licensed guide of Campania Region (Italy) since 2011 and I have also worked as an archaeologist all around the Mediterranean sea: Populonia (Livorno, Italy), Paestum (Salerno, Italy), Olbia de Provance (Hyères, Var -France), Efestia (Lemnos, Greece), Phaistos, (Crete, Greece). Since I was a child I loved history of ancient Greeks and Romans and also the Art history from the Middle Ages to the Avanguardie of the '900. I live in Salerno, a characteristic sea town located between the paradise of Amalfi Coast and the charming Cilento. Thanks to my job and passion I working and travelling all over the World discovering different people, cultures and stories. I'm going to offer my knowledge in the art-historical and archaeological field for anyone who wants to understand and investigate the incredible richness of my country. Together we will discover the secrets of ancient Greeks and Romans that already in the past they knew the incomparable beauty of those places. With me you will know also other ancient civilizations and royal families, like Lombards, Normans, Anjous, Aragons and Bourbons, that ruled and enriched the Region with Monuments of incredible beauty and historic value. I'm a member of Slow Food (an international movement that strives to preserve traditional and regional cuisine and encourages farming of plants, seeds and livestock characteristic of the local ecosystem) and so I organize specific tours to those who want to discover the authentic pleasures of wine and traditional food. I also do online pre-trip consultations to help traveller to get their best from their vacations. Availability, preparation and organization are my greatest battle horses to transmit the love that I feel for my country and its history. I'm proud to have been chosen as guide by part of the British Royal family (Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh and her sons Lousie and James), the singer of the Coldplay Chris Martin, the footballer Peter Crouch, the Airbnb CEO Brian Chesky and other thousands of couriuos travellers! With my online virtual tour of Pompeii I've hosted 100+ companies (Apple, Google, Microsoft, Facebook, Airbnb, Alibaba, Cisco, Pfizer, Zillow, American Express, HP Enterprise, Linkedin, Tumblr, T-Mobile, Nike, Deliveroo, Yelp!, Salesforce and many others) that did team buildings travelling in time into the ancient Roman era!

In one word everything was Perfect

Roberto was extremely knowledgeable about Pompeii and showed us all of the highlights which were the must see areas since we only had an hour due to the cruise ship departure schedule. Francisco drove us in a luxurious and comfortable Mercedes sedan and had water to keep us hydrated. He knew all of the ways to avoid traffic jams, filled us with information about the cities we passed and showed us the best places to dine and shop. Thank you ... we'll be back to spend more time.

Roberto was amazing! Our group enjoyed a fantastic tour of Pompeii, the Amalfi Coast and Amalfi itself. I highly recommend ToursByLocals and tour guide Roberto for anyone seeking a tour in the port of Naples!

Roberto was an excellent guide. He is very knowledgeable and provided our group insightful information regarding Pompeii which we would not have otherwise gathered from an ordinary tour guide. His expertise as an archaeologist was very evident as he guided us through the Pompeii ruins. He was also very accommodating as regards the time especially since we were travelling with children. Roberto tailored our tour of Pompeii, Positano and Amalfi and our group enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended.
