Hi everybody, my name is Marcello. I'm specialized in high grade archeological and historical tours. Born and raised in Naples and belonging to a very old Neapolitan famiIy I've got the official license of Professional Tour Guide in 2000. Archaeological and historical tours are my core business but always based on keeping my clients "AWAY FROM THE MASSIVE TOURISM". I love my job. I love my country. I love giving not simple orientations but the "real essence" of every single spot you are interested in, observing all safety measures to reduce the Covid19 diffusion. My range of activities is the whole Campania Region, including all its archaeological and historical sites, like Pompeii, Herculaneum, Napoli, Paestum, royal palaces and museums. I'm also specialized in the painting of '500 and '600, like Caravaggio, Tiziano, Raffaello, Jusepe de Ribeira, Battistello Caracciolo, and all the painters who" mastered the light". In 2015 I've got specialization in roman currency as well. I do cooperate with the U. S. Syracuse University, and over the past years, I had interesting experiences while working with some International TV productions as expert in archeology and art. Some reviews about me have been written by Kerry Mullis (Noble Price), Donna Tart (Pulitzer in 2014), Zubin Meta ( World's greatest Orchestra Director), Jude Law, Hugh Jackman, the Jobs. . . . . . . . You can see me on the CBS Sunday morning news runned on May 19th 2019 or using the link https://www. cbsnews. com/video/a-perfect-cup-of-espresso/ I also worked with Samantha Brown, american documentary maker, for the documentary 'Passport to Europe' and recently I've been working for the worldwide magazine Conde N'Est Traveler as local expert in history. What else I can say, this is what I do with passion and responsibility……. . and always having a lot of fun. - Licensed Professional Tour Guide by Regione Campania Aut. n. 4071 - High Specialization Course in "Pompeii and the Sub-Vesuvian Roman Cities" - CFE, Cambridge First Certificate, British Council Institute of Naples None

"Pompeii revealed" means to live the city from the Roman's point of view. I will take you walking through the most evocative archaeological site in the world, actually frozen in time, where the Roman presence is still in the air. I am specialized in high grade archaeological and historical tours always based on keeping my clients "away from the massive Tourism". Breathing glory, opulence, religion, enigmatic cults, public life, tragedy and death. . . with an expert in archaeology is more than a unique experience. Make a real journey into the past. . . make "Pompeii Revealed" a "once in a lifetime's experience". I will give you the true story. NOTE: FROM THIS YEAR ON POMPEI ARCHEOLOGICAL SITE ALLOWS MAX 20.000 VISITORS EACH DAY. IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO PURCHASE THE TICKETS “POMPEI EXPRESS” AS SOON AS YOU CAN ON VIVATICKETS DOT IT. TICKETS CANNOT BE PURCHASED BY THE LOCAL GUIDE IN ANY WAY SINCE THEY ARE PERSONAL AND NOMINATIVES.
The itinerary is pretty simple: the tour starts from one of the Pompeian gates and goes through the highlights of the site step by step over its thousand years of history. I don't follow the mass tourism. I've never done it. That is not my idea of touring Pompeii. I will give you the true story. That's what I like doing mostly. Showing the real Pompeii, the most impressive frescoes and mosaics still unknown. With me you will see the Pompeii as seaport city, like it was at that time, with its thousands sailors, merchants and traders crowding the streets. Theaters, shops, temples and opulent private residences where the local aristocracy lived. That is my Pompeii tour. We can make one or two stops if you need to use facilities or getting some snacks. *This is a normally a walking tour. It starts and ends at the entrance to the archaeological site. In case you need transportation, please message me for a customized tour. In winter, I strongly suggest you bring an umbrella and, if possible, comfortable shoes
