Tour Guide in Naples, Pompeii and Herculaneum! I'm totally in love with my city and it'll be my mission to make you fall in love with it too! Hey there! I'm Ada, your ultimate guide to exploring the incredible ancient Roman cities around Mount Vesuvius. With over 25 years of experience, my love for Roman ruins has only grown stronger, especially when it comes to the frozen cities that I'm all about: Pompeii & Herculaneum. Ever since I was a kid, I've been fascinated by history and languages, thanks to my historian dad who filled my head with tales of Neapolitan history. Growing up surrounded by stories of Pompeii & Herculaneum, I felt lucky to live in such a historically rich area. After getting my degree in foreign languages and literature, I spent time as an Erasmus student in France and a language learner in London, sharpening my language skills to fluently guide tours in English & French. I kicked off my career as a tour leader across Italy, diving deep into the history & art of my country. Passing my tour guide exam in 2004 was a major milestone, and since then, I've been thrilled to uncover the secrets & fascinating stories behind ancient buildings. I'm totally hooked on Roman history. Whether it's devouring books on archaeology or attending conferences on Pompeii, I'm always hungry for more knowledge. When you tour with me, it's not just about the architecture—it's about connecting with the human experience. I love sharing stories & anecdotes to give you a glimpse into what life was like in Pompeii thousands of years ago. Being a mom has also been a big help at work! I adore kids and sharing stories with families during their visits. So, if you're ready for an unforgettable adventure filled with passion, enthusiasm, and a touch of ancient magic, join me on a tour like no other.
