Hello Everybody, My name is Giuseppe and I am Son of Southern Italy. I am 44, and, since 2004, I have been an authorized professional TOUR GUIDE in NAPLES and ROME Regions. Additionally, I am an N. C. C. licensed DRIVER and I run a Deluxe Mercedes Van with all comforts. I am the only one, on "Toursbylocals. com" to lead Private Tours in Rome and Naples. I combine my knowledge of the sites with expertise and flexibility to make all my tours informative, dynamic and safe. I am an excellent "TOUR CREATOR"! This is the reason why I don't have so many "standardized tours" listed on my page! I believe that every private tour is a "unique piece". It must be shaped on the needs and wishes, expectations and feelings, physical attitudes and time factor of my guests. If you are planning to visit Rome or Naples or if your cruise ship docks in both ports, I can be your personal GUIDE and DRIVER in both areas. You get this way two advantages: one single person to rely on and a way for you to save MONEY. Pompeii, Herculaneum, Naples, the Amalfi Coast, Capri, Sorrento, but also the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, Colosseum and the whole city of Rome have no secrets for me. This is my LAND and I am the face, voice, and body of it! This is what stimulates me to do my job with competence, passion, and sense of responsibility. I love to lead tours for FAMILIES and interact with kids, couples, and small parties of friends traveling together. I love to teach and it comes naturally to me to lead EDUCATIONAL TOURS for students. Moreover, I have a specific talent to lead SHORE EXCURSIONS to make, for all cruisers, the best of their time. So just formulate your request and I will reply to you PROMPTLY. What about my background? I have a Master Degree in Economics with a Specialization in ECONOMIC HISTORY. Since I was at university my true passion for exploring and my great interests in fine arts and archaeology showed up. I spent many years traveling and working as TOUR LEADER all over Europe for important tour operators. This experience gave me the chance to understand people's lifestyles and to improve the foreign languages which I learned attending the British Council Institute for English, the Instituto Cervantes for Spanish and the Cial for Portuguese. When I travel abroad, I don't want to be just a spectator standing by a balcony. I want to interact with the locals. I can't wait to welcome you, to show you my COUNTRY through my eyes and to make you live not a simple tour but an intense journey into the local culture and life. Do not hesitate a minute longer, follow me and have fun! Giuseppe P. S. If you are looking for your ideal place to stay in Naples, I gently inform you that I have a totally New and sunny Apartment in the Center of Naples, ready to welcome you! Qualifying examinations: • Authorized Tour Guide of Campania Region, Regione Campania; • Authorized Tour Guide of Rome and its Province, Provincia di Roma; • Authorized Tour Guide of Bologna; • Authorized National and International Tour Leader; • N.C.C. Licensed Driver; "N.C.C. License" is the specific license authorizing to drive travelers throughout Europe. With this license, travelers are protected by a proper insurance. I drive a Deluxe Mercedes Minivan with all comforts, A/C, free Wi-Fi, fresh water, clean. • Master Degree in Economics, specialized in History of Economy, Università degli Studi di Napoli "Federico II". Qualifying courses: • CFE, Cambridge First Certificate, British Council Institute of Naples; • DELE, Instituto Cervantes de Napoles.

Giuseppe was excellent. I cannot imagine how we would ever have been able to arrange so many must-see sites on our own as efficiently as Giuseppe did, and then also with the wealth of knowledge that he had to explain their significance and history to us. I highly recommend Giuseppe‘s tour oh Rome.

If I could give Giuseppe and this tour 10 stars, I would! We LOVED the tour, and Giuseppe was amazing! Prior to the trip, Guiseppe managed all our skip-the-line tickets (yay!!), which was so very helpful. He and Luca were flexible with pick-up and drop-off locations and had great recommendations for food. Giuseppe is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Roman history, and we can't imagine seeing Rome without hearing and learning so much. It truly made history come alive! We had a group of six adults (three of our guys are over 6'3), and everyone felt very comfortable in the van. We were treated like royalty all day with doors being opened for us, etc. Rome was extremely HOT when we were visiting, and we were so thankful for the air conditioning in the van. Giuseppe was a hit with everyone, too! He is fun and funny, intelligent, and open with Roman culture. My 18 year old son LOVED him, as did we all. If you are looking for a Rome tour guide, look no further!!

Our guide did a wonderful job and is very connected. He was quickly able to work out some special treatment at the Vatican when one of our members was not feeling well. He is very knowledgeable and you can ask him questions and he has the answers. He has a great driver and a very comfortable van. Overall we could not have asked for more. Book him early.

Our day with Giuseppe in Rome was outstanding and one of the best tours we have ever taken. We covered an incredible amount in a single day, including the Vatican, Pantheon, Colosseum, Trevi Fountain, and Spanish Steps, yet the day never felt rushed. Giuseppe was friendly, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job explaining the history and significance of each site while keeping the experience engaging and enjoyable. One thing that really set this tour apart was the combination of Giuseppe and our driver, Luca. While Luca expertly navigated Rome and provided convenient door-to-door access at each location, Giuseppe used the travel time between sites to continue sharing information and answering questions. No time was wasted. Thanks to their coordination and local knowledge, we seemed to avoid the traffic that can consume so much time in Rome. Luca navigated side streets and back alleys with ease, allowing us to spend our time seeing the city rather than sitting in traffic. Giuseppe struck the perfect balance between providing historical detail and keeping the tour enjoyable. Whether we were touring the Vatican, standing inside the Pantheon, tossing coins into the Trevi Fountain, or exploring the Colosseum, he brought each location to life and helped us appreciate what we were seeing. We have taken many private tours around the world, and Giuseppe ranks among the very best guides we have ever had. The combination of Giuseppe's knowledge and Luca's driving made for an exceptional day that allowed us to experience far more of Rome than we ever thought possible. We would highly recommend them to anyone visiting Rome.

My husband and I booked a private tour with Giuseppe as our guide and Luca as our driver. They did not disappoint! Giuseppe‘s knowledge of Roman history is amazing! We learned so much after spending the day with him. I was able to repeat many of the stories to my children when I got home and showed them pictures. It’s definitely worth the investment to book a tour with a professional when you have limited time in Rome. In one day, we were able to see the Vatican, Saint Peter‘s Basilica, the Colosseum, the Sistine chapel, the Trevi fountain, plus so many other places I can’t remember them all offhand. We didn’t have to wait in any of the normal lines as Giuseppe had gotten us tickets in advance to many of these places. That saved so much time! The car Luca drove us in was very nice also. Five stars all around!

Giuseppe is energetic, experienced, and has endless historical knowledge to truly make the most of a day in Rome. The transportation arrangements were also exceptional. The tour was seamless despite the crowds. Giuseppe’s supreme English vocabulary and use made learning interesting and easy to understand. This is really a top level experience to enjoy Rome. We highly recommend this tour.
