Hello everyone, I'm Paolo, a professional archaeologist and licensed tourist guide (License No. 1792, Campania Region). I was born and raised in the heart of the Bay of Naples, at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, an area renowned for its extraordinary archaeological heritage. Since childhood, I have been passionate about history and archaeology, especially because I grew up just a few minutes from the remarkable archaeological site of Herculaneum. As a child, I loved exploring the ancient cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, where I was fascinated by the greatness of Greek and Roman civilization. That passion eventually became my profession, leading me to pursue a career as both an archaeologist and a licensed tourist guide. I graduated cum laude from the University of Naples "L'Orientale" with a Master's Degree in Classical Archaeology. During my academic training, I participated in several archaeological excavations in Pompeii and Cumae, gaining valuable field experience that allows me to bring the ancient world to life for my guests. Over the years, I have developed extensive knowledge not only of Pompeii and Herculaneum, but also of Naples, whose historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Phlegraean Fields, and the stunning Amalfi Coast, including Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello. This region is truly unique—a place where history, archaeology, breathtaking landscapes, and centuries-old traditions come together. It is also famous for its outstanding cuisine; after all, the world-famous Pizza Margherita was born here. I deeply love my homeland, rich in history, culture, and natural beauty, and I would be delighted to share it with you. My goal is to provide an authentic, engaging, and unforgettable experience, helping you discover the fascinating history and timeless charm of Southern Italy. Welcome to the real Italy. Credentials Archaeologist – Licensed Tourist Guide (License No. 1792) Master's Degree in Classical Archaeology (cum laude) from the University of Naples "L'Orientale", one of Italy's leading universities in the field of archaeology. Professional archaeologist with excavation experience in Pompeii and Cumae. Licensed Tourist Guide of the Campania Region. Specialist in Greek and Roman archaeology. More important than any qualification, however, is my passion for sharing the history and archaeology of this extraordinary region. Every tour is designed to be informative, engaging, and tailored to your interests, offering a unique opportunity to experience the ancient world through the eyes of an archaeologist.

Paolo was terrific to be with knowledgeable and pleasant. Well organized and on time.

“Paolo was our expert archeologist guide for 2 days taking us to Pompeii and Herculaneum the first day and then to Roman villas and a museum of the villa artifacts. If you have passion and interest in understanding what the civilization of Pompeii and the neighboring areas were like prior to and at the time of the volcanic eruption in 79 A.D., Paolo is the guide for you! He ties all the known history together with the most recent discoveries. His passion comes through and he knows so much not only about the ancient engineering methods, but the Greek mythology in the fabulous frescoes that have been uncovered. Paolo is very personable and offered suggestions to alter his tour as he learned our interests. A true “5 star”! We would highly recommend Paolo and use on another visit!”

Our family of 5 experienced an amazing day with Paolo on the Amalfi Coast. It would have been impossible to visit all of the sites covered in one day during the busy summer tourist season. We felt very relaxed with Paolo and he even brought us to a fabulous restaurant that overlooked the beautiful coastline. Paolo has an extensive historical and archeological education to draw upon and could easily described the special sites we visited in great detail. His Joy in sharing his knowledge is evident.

Paolo was a true cicerone for us as we traversed the Amalfi Coast. It's a hard tour for any guide, given the fantasies about the coast that many Americans have. Paoli gave us a good grasp of the history of the area as well as what it has become in the present day. We came to understand the " dolce vita" it has come to represent to Americans, and also the underpinnings of its maritime history. He was especially informative about the way Muslim and Christian elements intermixed in its architecture.
