Beautiful inclusive visit to Paestum.

The visit was remarkable. Nicola, the guide, was excellent, using language and methods suitable for getting everyone to participate in the visit. The group organized by the Coop Il Tulipano of Naples/Pompei was composed of adults, children, and people with and without disabilities. Nicola involved everyone indiscriminately with content and curiosities, engaging the group. A unique and recommendable experience both for the type of group (sharing the experience with people with disabilities was an additional added value) and for Nicola's skill in the historical and cultural explanation of Paestum.

The tour does involve...

The tour does involve walking on uneven surfaces. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional, although we never heard his name. We very much enjoyed the experience!

Wonderful tour!

Ciro, our guide, was wonderful. I enjoyed learning from him about the day to day life of the people of Pompeii and his enthusiasm for the subject matter. The time frame for the tour was ideal and left us plenty of time to explore on our own. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting Pompeii. It was a great experience.
