I'm Francesco, and I was born in Pompei. Ever since I was little, I've had a deep passion for excavations and archaeology. As a child, I participated in numerous school projects focused on the excavations of Pompeii, which allowed me to develop a profound understanding of this ancient city. Today, Pompeii holds no secrets for me, and I take great pride in sharing my knowledge with others as a specialized tour guide. In addition to my expertise in Pompeii, I also hold a license as a tour guide from the Campania region. This license enables me to provide guided tours not only in Pompeii but also in other captivating locations in the area. One of my previous roles was working as a hiking guide on Mount Vesuvius, where I led adventurous explorers on thrilling excursions to the volcano's summit. This experience has given me a comprehensive understanding of the region's geology and natural beauty. I consider myself a sociable and fun-loving individual who genuinely enjoys interacting with people. My goal as a tour guide is to create memorable and educational experiences for my guests, ensuring that they have a deep appreciation for the rich history and cultural heritage of the places we visit. I'm very open to customize the tour for you and to help to provide a private professional driver that can make your tour more enjoyable.
