About the operator

- nayomio0 contributionsSorrento Secrets with a LocalGuilia is a local, born and raise in Sorrento and was the perfect person to guide this tour. Traveling with a local is wonderful because we saw and learned about the local sights, culture and people. The stroll through town was at a nice pace and we had a nice time stopping for cappuccino, chocolate and biscotti. She knew everyone wherever we went. Guilia was lovely and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour!Written November 28, 2024
- roccoj7860 contributionsThe Best Napoli Tour😊!Giulio, our guide and Nino our driver were absolutely the best. Giulio was not only well versed in the Elena Ferrante books but knew the neighborhoods well, the book neighborhoods and the neighborhoods of Napoli in general. The tour was a pleasure, well worth the fee and memorable. Rocco and Joanna 🌻Written October 18, 2024
- Curiosity026096974860 contributionsA fantastic tour with the wonderful RobertaRoberta was an amazing guide. Sorrento is her home town, so her knowledge and insights were brilliant. We were a small group and really enjoyed learning more about Sorrento. Our highlight was the visit to Marina Grande, the old fishing village and Roberta singing Come Back to Sorrento for us. This tour is a great way of finding your way around Sorrento.Written October 5, 2024

- S4451MWkathrynh0 contributionsInteresting and informativeEnjoyed the back streets of Sorrento with points of interest. The artisan workshops were impressive and had light touch sales pitch. The ice cream treat was nice but took up too much time. Disappointed not to have seen more back streets of interest.Written September 27, 2024
- tonyjV6335VO0 contributionsGreat tour experienceGood knowledge of the city of sorrento, beautiful views and history. Pastries are delicious and the coffee is awesome. Well worth the money.Written September 21, 2024
- zachyl0 contributionsInteresting and fun walking tour in a very nice city.It was good to learn about the history and the art of Sorrento in a small group from an excellent tour guide, Adrian. Sorrento is a great place and has its own unique charms to which Adrian introduced the group.Written September 19, 2024
- Excursion2992510 contributionsGreat tour of Pompeii.My daughter and I had a fantastic tour with Ornella. She was knowledgeable, clearly set the tune on the tone for the two of us. Ornella was clearly interested and enthusiastic both about the historical subject matter, as well as providing a quality service as a guide. She also nicely tolerated our tardiness because of transportation issues and facilitated buying tickets with no fuss. Truly appreciated the tour.Written August 8, 2024
- beno3370 contributionsPompeii late afternoon tourGennaro was a great guide and walked at a nice pace giving us great insight into ancient Pompeii before the eruption. Would definitely recommend this tour - especially as it is later in the day after the larger crowds and heat have dissipated.Written June 29, 2024
- robertnP6248UJ0 contributionsA view of Sorrento that we would never had seen without our exceptional guide.The guide was exceptionally good. Well informed, interesting and very helpful. And he was a real local. He told us about the nativity scene in the Cathedral and we then saw them in other churches. We returned to one shop and a trattoria that he suggested and were pleased that we did.Written June 13, 2024
- G7822MSannec0 contributionsA very worthwhile extra to add to your visit to PompeiiThe Villa of Mysteries - additional Eur8 charge. Well worth it. This site is just outside of Pompeii proper which you can reach via the necropolis - street of tombs. The art-work here is exceptional because of the life sized figures. It reminds me so much of early Renaissance Art by Masaccio / Masolino in Florence - Cappella Brancacci. The board describes the scene vignettes to help explain what is being depicited.Written May 7, 2024
- cathrineae0 contributionsGreat Experience 🇮🇹😀What a great walk! So much knowledge and info from our guide Hugo. Highly recommend if you want to see and learn about Sorrento, especially off the beaten track 😉😀Written April 30, 2024
- katherinecI5603OW0 contributionsA Visit to Pompeii & SorrentoWe started the day by meeting our guide, Roberta (via Tour Guide Naples), just outside the port of Naples where we took the local metro and express train out to Pompeii (she bought all our tickets for us as part of the tour). Our private tour enabled us to skip the large entry line into the site which got us ahead of the very large crowds at Pompeii. Roberta has an archeological background and was part of the Pompeii site dig, so she was full of many helpful and fascinating facts during our walking tour. Pompeii is so expansive that you could spend several days there seeing new sites, but Roberta did a wonderful job hitting the major highlights and getting us to popular locations ahead of the large crowds and lines. I believe we spent at least 2-2.5 hours there! We were supposed to go to Capri, but the rough seas caused quite the ferry delay and was no guarantee that we could get back in time for our cruise port departure. So, Roberta organized a pivot and planned for us to drive to Sorrento, taking in the beautiful coastline views through the small villages along the way. We had a lovely lunch at a local spot in Sorrento (absolutely delicious pizza, huge calzone, amazing house wine and a free limoncello to finish it off). Roberta then gave us a walking/historical tour of Sorrento with a little bit of time leftover for shopping before we had to make the return trip back to the cruise. It was a lovely way to spend our time in the areas surrounding Naples!Written April 11, 2024

Our group of adult learners was lucky to have Ornella to guide us in Pompeii for three hours. She is wonderful! We learned a lot and had fun. We could listen to her all day. This is our second tour with Ornella and we hope to have her again with our next group to Pompeii.

We had the most outstanding private tour of Pompeii with the wonderful Ornella!! Her knowledge and expertise is second to none. This, along with her friendly and engaging personality, was truly a highlight of our trip to Italy. I highly recommend & you will be very fortunate to have Ornella as your guide transporting you back to the days of Pompeii!! Everything was seamless, from our train station pick up to our drop off to meet Ornella at the gates of Pompeii. Memorable and fantastic. Molte Grazie!!

Our trip to Pompei and Herculaneum was great and it made all the difference in the heat to have a comfortable air conditioned minibus taking us everywhere.
Our guide, Theresa, was very knowledgable and charming and went out of her way to explain everything and answer our questions.
We all thought that it was money well spent and it made our trip very relaxing and enjoyable.

We are staying in Naples (at the Grand Hotel Vesuvius) and would like to be picked up here (on the morning of June 29) but dropped off in Sorrento after the tour. We board our boat at approximately 5 pm. Would that be possible? There are 4 adults.
