I want to be a reference point for those seeking authentic food and wine experiences, offering itineraries that not only enhance local wines, but also help preserve and enhance the culture, environment and communities that produce them. I believe that wine tourism can become an engine of sustainable development, capable of strengthening the identity of rural and coastal areas, promoting agricultural practices that respect nature and encouraging the promotion of territorial wines. I dream of a walk in the cellar that unites people through taste, beauty and conviviality, creating deep connections between visitors and local producers. I want each guest, leaving these lands, to bring with them not only the memory of excellent wines, but also the awareness of having lived an experience that celebrates the history, passion and authenticity of a new territory.

What are people saying about Archaeological Park of Paestum (Parco Archeologico di Paestum)

Joanna_P, Apr 2026

Layers of history in one place.

Maria was extremely knowledgeable and gave us very clear explanations of the history and culture of this site. Paestum itself is very beautiful. The Museum is also excellent.

Gail_K, Apr 2026

Terrific experience!

Our guide, Ivan, was perhaps the best guide I’ve ever had. He was so knowledgeable— with first- hand archeological experience — and made the sites and museum exhibits come alive for us. So interesting and fun!

Richard_w, Apr 2026

Outstanding Tour Guide = outstanding tour

lucky to get Ivan as our tour guide. His PhD thesis (in archeology) was on an area in Paestum. He was phenomenal throughout, and then we ended in the museum where he could point out the items he uncovered and show us things about them No other person could possibly know. Friendly, funny and extremely intelligent with a unique perspective on the area. Simply the best guided tour we had in our 2 week trip

E_Y, Apr 2026

We enjoyed our guided...

We enjoyed our guided tour of Paustrum with Francesca. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the topics she covered. She also provided a helpful outline at the start of her tour and asked us questions so she could tailor her responses to our experiences (which was not usually the case with our other Italian guides). We learned a lot and we've been on many tours on related topics. So I would definitely recommend Francesca as a guide for this tour.

Diane_W, Feb 2026

Do Paestum with Mario!

Mario was the perfect guide for us. His passion for archaeology and history was evident from the first moment, and his constant smile was an indication of how much he enjoyed talking to us. I can’t decide whether I enjoyed the museum portion of the tour best or the time we spent walking around the Paestum ruins. This was a perfect experience in every way.
