Ciao! My name is Giada, which means a little green precious stone (Jade). As my name suggests I am a tiny, smiling and very talkative person, and a professional licensed tourist guide of the Campania Region. I was born and still live in Salerno, a charming medieval town on the seaside, outside the beaten path, where the first western school of medicine was born. I haven't been always interested in what I am doing, because my first passion was the theatre. I studied classical dance and violin for a long time. Those are anyway different forms of arts and so at the moment I finished high school I decided to improve my knowledge about history of art. I studied 3 years at the University of Salerno, and then other 2 years at the University of Rome, to be an art historian. The decision to be a guide arrived later, when I was in the capital and was doing tours for a particular exhibition the University organised. I enjoyed so much that period, and I loved the job that tourists really appreciated, giving great feedback. I decided to study English to do the exam for the licence and here I am! Today it's not about what I do anymore, but what I am. . . a guide. I worked also as a trip leader, for a 17days tour of the South of Italy, so I know what taking care of tourists means, and as an event organizer for temporary exhibitions. Thanks to these job experiences I could improve my skills and I am now very organized and detail-oriented. What I will offer you is an experience, I hope you can share and remember. Tours of history, art, monuments, and landscapes of Salerno, or Amalfi, the main maritime republic, a lovely beautiful village on the famous coast, or a jump into the ancient Greek, and roman, history and culture you can live again visiting the archaeological site of Poseidonia/Paestum. It is also a time we will spend together, walking and talking with a deep insight into the real life of my hometown, and not only, giving you a taste of all the aspects, including local food, accompanied with my passion, enthusiasm, and personality. If this is what you are looking for, come to Campania Region and contact me. I am more than happy and willing to customize any tours. Licensed tourist guide of Campania Region since 2014. Master degree in History of arts at the University of Rome "La Sapienza". Bachelor's degree in Cultural Heritage at the University of Salerno. Master in Event Organisation. I am not a driver. I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Living very close to Paestum, I used to spend the summers here when I was younger. Studying at the university history of art, I came here so many other times. I know this place so well, I can give you a very deep insight of this amazing archeological site, sharing my knowledge, my passion for ancient life and my experience as a guide. Poseidonia is the original name of the town that was built by Greeks in the 7th century B. C. and dedicated to the God Poseidon. Then it was conquered by Romans, who changed the feature of the town. It is also possibile to visit the National museum which preserves most of the artifacts found in the area. In particular the famous painted Tomb of the diver, a masterpiece of the Greek period. Join me in this tour and it will be literally a jump into the ancient times.
The tour consists of the visit of the archaeological site and the Museum. In first part we will visit the temples, the roman forum, the Heroon (the memorial for the founder of the Greek town) and the roman residential aerea. In the second part we will visit the Museum with the artifact from the temples such as offerings for gods and stone friezes, and the painted tombs.
