Hello, and thank you very much for visiting my web profile! My name's Felicia and I'm a restorer, an art historian and a tour guide, specifically for families with children. I have worked for many years in restoration laboratories in Naples, Sorrento, Cava de' Tirreni, Pompeii and Oplontis. My area of expertise is the restoration of the pictorial film into frescoes, paintings on canvas, wood and statues. In 2014 I obtained the license to work as a tour guide of the Campania Region delivering tours in both Italian and English. At present, I have the fortune to be also involved in the tourist industry, organizing and designing itineraries and expecially guided tours. I really enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience with people from different ranges of cultural, professional and academic backgrounds. The tours that meet me the most are those with families with children and adolescents: I can now claim to be an expert in this type of services! Licensed tour guide of the Campania Region (2015) Master's degree in History of Art at the University "Suor Orsola Benincasa" of Naples - final dissertation about the History of Restoration, with particular reference to the defense system of the Sorrento Coast from Roman times to the Unification of Italy (2007) Post-graduate degree master of Tourism Management at the University "Suor Orsola Benincasa" of Naples (2021) Qualification in Restoration of Paintings on Canvas and Tableaux at the Institute "M. Visconti" of Naples (2000) Training courses on Excavation's Principles and Methods, Restoration Diagnosis, and the Conservation of Ceramics at Faenza's "M.I.C. Museo Internazionale delle Ceramiche" (2000-2001) I attended a seminar on Contemporary Art, Management and Settings at the Ara Pacis in Rome (2009) According to my country regulation, my guidance is allowed inside museums, archaeological areas, cities and more. Since I'm not a driver, for tours with private transportation my associated professional driver will be at your disposal.

Walking tour in the best preserved archaeological site ever
Overview of your Sorrento tour
Not only Pompeii is worth seeing and exploring: you cannot miss Herculaneum as well! A small part of the ancient city is visible to visitors, but enough to understand its beauty. The visit of Herculaneum will give you a sense of wealth in Roman times. With a population of about 3, 000 inhabitants, Herculaneum was abruptly destroyed and covered in ashes by the famous Vesuvius' eruption dating back to the 79 AD. For the layer of mud was very thick and consistent, the city has survived to us in almost perfect conditions: two-storey houses, carbonized wooden objects, frescoes and mosaics are incredibly well preserved.
