Ciao! I’m Fabrizio – your local guide and driver for Pompeii, Naples, and the Amalfi Coast. Born and raised in Naples, living now in Vico Equense on the Sorrento Coast, I’m passionate about sharing the Beauty, History, Food&Wines and Culture of my region with travelers from all over the world. I’ve been leading tours since 2010: I was the very first ToursByLocals guide in the area, and I’ve loved every moment of this journey! With a Master’s degree in Art History and a Bachelor’s in Archaeology, I bring deep knowledge and enthusiasm to every tour. I studied in Canada, France, and Italy, so I speak fluent English and French, have a good understanding of Spanish and Portuguese, and—just for fun—I’m currently learning Chinese! As a professional guide for over 32 years, I believe every traveler has his own reasons for exploring. My goal is to truly understand what YOU are looking for and tailor the experience to match YOUR interests. Whether it’s a deep dive into ancient ruins, a scenic coastal drive, or a food and wine adventure, I’ll make sure your tour feels personal, relaxed, and memorable. I love sharing Italy’s landscapes, archaeology, and flavors—especially with guests from North America and the UK who appreciate both professionalism and warmth. By the end of the day, I hope you’ll see me not just as your guide, but as a friend. My comfortable 2019 Mercedes V-Class Minivan seats up to seven passengers, perfect for family or small-group tours. You can also join me for classic walking tours or train, or boat excursions. Explore Pompeii, the Amalfi Coast, Herculaneum, Naples, and beyond – your perfect Italian journey starts here! I graduated in Art History at the University of Naples, and I was a student in Ontario, Canada, and in Poitiers, France. I was the first guide ever with ToursByLocals in the area of Naples, starting on 2010. 2021 Archaeology undergraduate, University of Naples Federico II 2013 Professional Commercial Driving License up to 8 passengers 2004 Professional license as a Tour Guide, Campania Region, Italy 2003 Master's Degree in Promotion of Historical Sites, University of Naples, Italy 2002 Graduate in Art History, University of Naples Federico II 2001 Erasmus Exchange Student, University of Poitiers, France 1998 Professional Tour Leader, Provincia di Latina, Italy 1994 AFS Exchange Student, Peterborough, Ontario, Canada Others: - Training Course About the Middle Ages, CESCM Poitiers, France - Training corse in Litterature, Aesthetic and Myth, Istituto Italiano Studi Filosofici, Napoli, Italy - Training course for Environmental Education, Oasi Naturalistica del Monte Nuovo, Pozzuoli, Italy

Overview of your Naples tour

Enjoy a day combining incredible history and breathtaking scenery — far from the crowds. With tickets included, a private archaeologist guide, and comfortable transport, this tour is the most effortless way to explore two of Naples’ greatest treasures. At Herculaneum, buried under 60 feet of volcanic debris in AD 79, we will walk its streets, enter Roman homes, shops, gyms, and bathhouses, and learn about daily life during the Empire. Compared to Pompeii, Herculaneum is more compact, better preserved, and wonderfully quiet — sometimes almost unreal. We then continue along the legendary Amalfi Coast, with steep cliffs, blue sea, and colorful villages. We may stop in Amalfi, Ravello, Positano, or Sorrento, with time for photos, history, local crafts, or simply relaxing by the sea. I am a local archaeologist and have guided here for over 32 years — it is still a pleasure to share. Feel free to contact me with any special requests.

Fabrizio is very knowledgeable and provided helpful tips for making the most of our time in Campania on the days after our tour. He gave us options for what to focus on during our time with him and adapted the tour to fit our particular interests.

Fabulous tour with wonderful guide. Fabrizio found us an amazing pizza cooking class on a Sunday with a passionate private chef in a beautiful home on top of a mountain. The views were amazing and the cooking class was fun. The pizza and tiramisu we helped prepare were the freshest (ingredients were from her garden) and best tasting we’ve ever eaten! The rest of the tour included scenic driving along the Amalfi coast and stopping at the beautiful city of Ravelo on a hilltop. Some shopping and picture taking followed. Fabrizio was personable knowledgeable and an excellent driver. We really enjoyed this experience! Highly recommend this tour and guide for any of his tours!

Fabrizio was our favorite tour guide!! He was so fun and knowledgeable and took us to Herculaneum early in the day…we were the first ones in and practically had the site to ourselves! Ravello was magical and really, Fabrizio and his wonderful personality and way of telling a story made everything come to life. We had a marvelous day with him and were back on the ship in plenty of time!! Fabrizio books out months ahead so plan well in advance if you want him for an unforgettable experience in Italy!

Très belles visites de Pompéi, puis d Ercolano et de la côte amalfitaine sur 1 jour 1/2 avec Fabrizio, guide passionné, très agréable, chaleureux, calme et cultivé, qui a cherché à partager le maximum de connaissances historiques et culturelles sélectionnées sur Naples et sa région, en s'adaptant bien à notre groupe familial. Un des plus beaux moments de notre séjour, cela a été un plaisir de découvrir avec lui et nous donne envie de revenir dans la baie de Naples. Merci Fabrizio!
