Ciao! My name is Chiara, which means clear, that's why I'm a very "clear guide" to visit Napoli! I was born there, in the heart of the historical center and I grew up here, so I'm 100% Neapolitan! I'm expert about history, art, traditions, archeology, good food, and traditional folk dances! I enjoy spending my free time travelling and studying ancient history, especially about Pompeii. There are continuously new things to know and learn! I'm graduated in Conservation of Cultural Heritage, specialized in Restauration of Photographs that is why I collaborated for a couple of years with some photographic archives. I worked in the didactic section of the "Museo del Tesoro di San Gennaro" too, and organized temporary exhibitions. The result of these work experiences helped me to realize that I preferred an outdoor and dynamic job: driven by my passion and following my devotion to my hometown, I worked hard to get the license as authorized tour guide of Campania in 2015. I'm enthusiastic to share my knowledge, and what really means to me is spreading the anthropological background, the anecdotes and the curiosities that I believe remain more impressed in the heart of the travelers. I have been working for years for Tour Companies and Travel Agencies and at the same time I enjoy creating travelling experiences tailored on the clients' desires, taking care of their expectations and preferences. Furthermore, I organize specific tours to those who want to discover the authentic pleasures of wine and food! I have a rich experience with cruise passengers, large groups, families, individual, very different people for various kinds of tours: by minivan, walking, by private car or boat, by horse chariot and using cable car or chairlift! Thanks to my job I can change my workplace and visit myself wonderful places everyday : the breathtaking landscape of the Amalfi Coast and Sorrento, the charming island of Capri, the fascinating Pompeii and Herculaneum, the elegant Royal Palace of Caserta with its gardens, and the amazing Naples. Fall in love with this land is not hard. You don't believe that? Follow me and you'll see! I'm graduated in Conservation of Cultural Heritage and specialized in Restauration of Photographs. I am a licensed guide, I have no limitations of any kind and I can access any place of cultural interest and guide you in any of the languages I am proficient in. I can organize customized/tailor made tours (full day or half day) with luxury private car and driver. What are you waiting for? Contact me for an unforgettable private tour! Even if my calendar shows no availability, feel free to get in touch. I can organize private transportation by private car and driver. Just to clarify, I only arrange hotel or port pick-up and drop-off through the driver. I will meet you at the meeting point. For easy communication on the day of the tour, I suggest downloading WhatsApp on your smartphone.

The ancient Roman city of Herculaneum is a UNESCO World Heritage site and lies just north of Pompeii.
Overview of your Naples tour
Herculaneum is the pearl of antiquity, a place loved by roman patricians for its great position overlooking the bay of Naples. Destroyed and preserved caused the eruption of 79 AD under a blanket of ash, lapilli, and mud. The site of Herculaneum was returned to us thanks to the first Bourbon excavations of the 18th century. The archaeological site of Herculaneum is smaller than Pompeii, but, in addition to the ruins it offers the possibility to visit in a small museum, located near the ruins, the temporary exhibition "SplendOri" "luxury in Herculaneum ornaments". That is a great opportunity to admire the precious findings, and personal and everyday items that occurred in the archaeological area of Herculaneum.
