Ciao! My name is Rosa, I’m a professional walking and hiking guide across the Amalfi Coast and the Cilento National Park. I’ve been exploring these paths since I was 12 years old, and that childhood passion has become my life’s work and what I love to share with my guests today. I believe the best way to discover my region is on foot—it’s the most relaxing and truthful way to connect with the land. I think my tours are specials because I prefer the authentic places, where you can experience the real life. I prefer to think people coming here as travelers, not only tourists so I plan my tours by asking myself: "What would I want to experience if I were visiting this place for the first time?" Together, we’ll escape the crowded places to find "secret" spots reachable only by ancient trails. Along the way, it’s common to meet local farmers with their donkeys or working in the fields. They are as curious about you as you are about them, often stopping for a friendly chat that makes you feel truly welcome. To travel is also to taste! I'm a foodie and I love to share my favorite local spots—from family-run organic farms to home restaurants tucked away in vineyards. We can have a mozzarella-making class, a Limoncello or Wine tasting or plan a pasta workshop. People are very proud of their places, generous in sharing their knowledge and they will make you feel part of the family! I specialize in small, intimate groups (typically 4-7 people) to ensure a high-quality, personal connection. However, I can host up to 12 guests and I am happy to customize every detail based on your pace and preferences. Join me for an experience that will leave you with lifelong memories. I’m sure we’ll have a lot of fun—I can’t wait to meet you! * Licenced official guide of Vesuvius National Park from 2008 * part of AIGAE (Italian Association of Excursions Guides)from 2012 to 2021 * part of LAGAP (Italian Association of Professional Guides for Excursions) from 2022 * IELTS Certification in English Language - level C1 Advanced (UK in 2011) I cannot guide inside archeological sites, museums and churches.

Rosa did an excellent job. Her knowledge of the history of Naples and all of Italy was excellent. She explains to us so much of the popular foods and food culture. She spent extra time with us sitting down at cafes because the streets were so busy. I highly recommend her tour
My wife and I spent several hours wandering the old Naples city center area with Rosa and discussing the history and culture of this area. Rosa is extremely personable and fun to talk with - I wished we had several more hours to chat about her city with her. She knows the history ofNaples and Italy thoroughly. The sampling of the street food as we went made the afternoon even more special. We have a much better appreciation of Naples now and, thanks to Rosa, I have more places I want to see and things I want to do here the next time we can visit Naples.
Rosa is like a ray of sunshine from the moment we met. She is very knowledgeable. She lays out a plan of what you are to see, is very passionate about Naples and it's history. The tour itself was a mix of culture, history, and wonderful foods to try. I didn't want it to end. It is definitely a must-do if you're on the area!
Rosa was friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable. We enjoyed learning about local history and traditions as well as sampling street food along the way.
Our stroll through the historic center of Naples with Rosa was informative and delicious. This was a great introduction to the history and food of Naples and we loved seeing the city through Rosa's eyes. Rosa was an excellent communicator and flexible prior to the tour as well. She is a delight and we would recommend this or any of Rosa's tours without hesitation.
