Hi, I'm Ilaria, an official Local tourist Guide licensed in Campania Region. I've studied Art and Languages to pursue my true passion: to be in contact with other cultures and backgrounds and to communicate to others my love for my country. I've been working as tour leader for 15 years developing strong relationships with my clients and my purpose is to provide a high quality service for travelers who want to melt culture, art and fun! My greatest strength as a tourist guide? I'm enthusiastic and I clearly love my hometown: I live in Naples and I have always been passionate and proud of its millenia of history. My idea of guided tour goes beyond the usual tourist route: I think that the best way to explore a new destination is to experience the culture and lifestyle, delving into the history, the customs and the amenities of a country to gain a more intimate perspective of the area. So let's go together to discover Campania region. Look forward to meeting you Official licensed Tour Guide of Campania Region. Bachelor Degree in Modern Greek and English language. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Naples tour

Special Pompeii private tour is suitable for those who want to spend more time in Pompeii discovering its hidden corners. Every one ought to be in this place at least once in their life: roads, Thermal Baths, the Furum, buldings just restored and open to the public few months ago show the vast historical and cultural heritage that Pompeii left us. The city was destroyed by Mont Vesuvius in A. D. 79 but walking through the streets, visiting the private and public spaces you'll feel that is still alive and vibrant. I have to tell you: this is one of my favorite tours because Pompeii is so huge and there's so much to see! In 3 full hours, we'll explore Pompeii in a deeper and more meaningful way. We are used to say that if you really want to know a place you have to get lost! In this case, I decided to organize a tour off the beaten paths so you'll really feel, like a time machine, to be for a few hours in a Roman town. Feed your desire for discovery, beauty, and history, Pompeii will never disappoint you!

Ilaria did a fantastic job with our tour. She was very helpful from the start in guiding me with what tour to take and answered my multitude of questions. She helped with getting our skip the line tickets to what train to take. She is very knowledgeable about the history of Pompeii and showed us the highlights of the city. Would highly recommend this 3 hour tour with her!

Encyclopaedic knowledge, not just of the site, but wider Italian history too. Cheerfully delivered: hugely memorable tour.

We highly recommend Ilaria, a very knowledgeable guide who kept us on a perfect pace for our three-hour walking tour. It was obvious she loves speaking about the history of Pompeii, and her excitement over recent archeological discoveries is infectious. We had such a wonderful visit. At the end of the tour, Ilaria set us up well to explore the rest of the site on our own in the afternoon. I wish we had booked her for Herculaneum too!

Ilaria's special walking tour of Pompeii was just incredible. She was so knowledgeable and made it incredibly informative and entertaining for our teenage son. We had asked to see a specific 'house' at Pompeii, and she customized the tour for us. I don't know how you could see Pompeii without a guide and understand what happened and what you were looking at. She really painted the picture of what the people had endured and the amazing city that remains to show life in Pompeii.
