With Barbara as our guide (and with her excellent driver), our full-day private tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum was fabulous! We started in Pompeii, where we walked the ancient streets and saw the public buildings, baths, theater area, Forum, plus so much more. The route and stops were tailored to our interests. Along the way, Barbara shared many interesting details, reflecting her immense knowledge of the site and her training in archeology. She knew how to navigate the large tour group crowds so we could move around efficiently and avoid lines. We spent the afternoon in Herculaneum, which was a contrast to Pompeii and so fascinating. She had a wealth of knowledge about the site, and we learned so much from her. I would not hesitate to have her as our tour guide again on future trips. Highly recommended.
