Annalisa - A Tour Guide Who Goes Above and Beyond
Our private Pompeii tour with Annalisa was wonderful, largely because of her exceptional ability to adapt to our group's needs. Our 9-year-old daughter came to the tour in a bit of a funk—a combination of moodiness and the Pompeii heat that's frankly unavoidable—but Annalisa's thoughtfulness turned things around for her. What impressed us most was how prepared and creative Annalisa was. She brought both a kids' Pompeii book and an authentic pop-up Pompeii book, which weren't just distractions but genuinely helped our daughter engage with the history. Better yet, Annalisa got her actively involved by having her role-play as the owner of a food stall, describing the types of food sold, what it looked like, and how it was made. It was the perfect way to bring ancient Pompeii to life for a young visitor. Annalisa also demonstrated excellent site knowledge by steering us off the beaten path to quieter areas where she could explain and add context without the crowds. Where lines were unavoidable, she found strategic nooks for us to gather while she wove her historical insights. As we explored the mansions, bakeries, and food stalls, her rich context painted vivid pictures of daily life 2,000 years ago. Beyond captivating our daughter, Annalisa impressed me as well, fielding my more challenging historical questions with knowledge and thoughtfulness, demonstrating real depth of expertise. Highly recommended!
Awesome day at Pompeii and Herculaneum
Carmen was fabulous. Knowledgeable, thoughtful and fun. The time at both locations was perfect and allowed us to see the high points without getting overheated or bored. Loved this and highly recommend.
Great tour!
Liia was fantastic! She took the time to guide us through the most fascinating parts of Pompeii and Herculaneum, bringing the ancient cities to life with vivid stories about how people lived there. The tour was exciting and engaging from start to finish, and we had a great time!
