Hello everyone and welcome to my profile page! My name is Ludovica, I am an Archaeologist and a licensed Tourist Guide of Campania Region. I am proudly Neapolitan. I grew up in Naples with a burning passion for archaeology, history and the natural beauties of my city and region. After many years of archaeological excavations, my need of sharing what I have been learning won and I currently work as a full-time guide throughout Naples and Campania Region since 2009. Campania is a perfect land that joins the beauty of landscapes, history, art and delicious foods! I would be happy to share all of this with people who are curious and interested in entering into the spirit and know the history of this magical land. I love to provide authentic tours trough Naples, my city, and its beautiful bay. With me, you can step back in time trough Pompeii, Herculaneum or the other cities buried by the famous eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A. D. I would love to take you through the rooms of the Royal Palace of Caserta, the beauty of the Amalfi Coast and Sorrento and much more. . . Every tour will be tailored to your needs and absolutely personalized. Come with me and experience art, magic and great food! Degree in Conservation of the Cultural Heritage (2006) with a specialization in Greek and Roman Archaeology. Diploma of post-graduate School at the School of Specialization in Archaeology of Salerno. Licensed Tourist Guide of Campania Region since 2009. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

We traveled as a family of 5 -- mom, dad, two kids ages 6 and 9 and one grandma. Ludovica was a fantastic guide for us all. She did a particularly fabulous job of engaging my son who is 6 and was the original one to express interest in visiting Pompeii. He read lots of books in advance and she was able to bring alive much of what he read. 2 hours really isn't enough time in Pompeii, but if you are squeezed for time, this is an awesome tour to take.

Ludovica was an excellent tour guide. We enjoyed our tour immensely. Ludo is friendly, a great story teller and very knowledgeable in explaining all things Pompei and Napoli. Our communications ahead of time were easy and helpful. The two hour tour was perfect for our family with two teens.

My family was SO glad we booked this tour with Ludovica! Her insights allowed us to have a much more knowledge-based visit to Pompei, and she was fantastic engaging both the adults on our tour as well as our five-year-old. This tour was a great value and we would recommend it to anyone interested in seeing Pompei but NOT interested in a large-group tour.

Ludovica was an absolute delight and a pleasure to spend time with. Her knowledge was excellent and her enthusiasm and passion for Pompeii shone through. She did her best to show us as much as possible in the time, and gave us loads of info to help with our remaining time there. Prior to the trip she was again so helpful in providing all the detail we needed to get to site so honestly cannot recommend her enough.
