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.

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. Naples is one the oldest city in Europe, with 3000 years of history and one the biggest cultural and artistic heritage in Europe. We'll visit the highlights of the city, From the historic district to the Castel Nuovo and Castel dell'Ovo. The history of the city narrate with its amazing castes, its narrow street, its ancient building and its fascinating legends. Naples could be defined with hundreds of different ways, most of them quite true. Naples is lively, friendly, chaotic, surprising, authentic, crowed, elegant, noble and popular, wonderful and decadent. However, choosing a single definition for this city is almost impossible to even for me who I was born and raised here. Naples is a unique place, a soul place, a puzzle always able to intrigue and fascinate everyone. I feel I'm the luckiest person in Naples for working of what I love
Barbara, as a native Neapolitan, is able to capture and share the essence of her home while also providing an historical perspective. She is engaging and fun. She worked closely with us to build an itinerary to suit our plans and physical abilities. I strongly recommend using her to get the most out of your time in this enchanting city!
Very much so enjoyed the tour with Barbara. She was knowledgeable and had an infectious enthusiasm for the city and its history.
Our second tour with Barbara was just as enjoyable and informative as the first (Pompeii). She led us through the vibrant city of Naples introducing us to places we could never have discovered on our own. This is her city and she knows every section of this ancient metropolis. We learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed our time with Barbara. Recommendation? The highest, 5 gold stars. Don't miss learning about Naples. And especially - do not miss learning about it with Barbara! She is one of Napoli's secret gems. Many thanks from your grateful students, Larry, Antonia and Suzanne
Barbara was an outstanding guide! She generously shared her encyclopedic knowledge of the historical, architectural and archeological significance of the sights and monuments along with insights into culture and life of Napoli that could only come from someone who has lived in and loved the city. You will be lucky to book her as your guilde.
Barbara was prompt and accommodating. She took us to many churches that gave the history of Naples. Was very knowledgeable. Let us stop for a great gelato. The weather didn't cooperate and even though she took a spill because of the rain, she finished the tour. The tour was a little heavy on churches. I'm sure she would adjust to your preferences. Would definitely tour with Barbara again.
Barbara is very knowledgeable and guided us through many interesting streets and alleys in the historic area. We had a delicious lunch of street food and pizza and learned a lot about Naples. She was very flexible with our tour start time given a late arrival into Naples the night before. She also offerred excellent restaurant recommendations.
