Our Incredible Tour of Ancient Lost Cities

Kevin_F, Mar 2023

Everything about the private guided tour was perfect and it was a wonderful day exploring 3 ancient cities with the best tour guide and driver we have ever met!! Our tour guide Rossana and our driver Luigi picked us up right on time at our hotel in a comfortable van with a/c. They were both excited to meet us and spend the day with us!! I loved that Rossana asked us what we were interested in and why we took this tour so she could help tailor the tour to best meet our needs and help us to have the best possible experience. Rossana provided us with water bottles and hand sanitizer and made us feel comfortable right away as we drove 2 hours to our first stop, Herculaneum. During the drive, Rossana told us about the itinerary for the day and about our tour guides at each archeological site (Mario and Paulo, who were also wonderful!!). Rossana is extremely knowledgeable about Roman History and the 3 ancient cities we saw. She gave us a brief overview of each city, the history, the significance and the geography because we were not familiar with Herculaneum or Paestum. When we arrived at each location we got VIP treatment!! Rossana had Luigi drop us off at the main entrance, had our tickets ready for us, and she called ahead to make sure that our site guide was there to meet us!! Everything ran smoothly because Rossana is so organized!! Paolo and Mario gave excellent tours because Rossana definitely knew how to tailor our visit. My son is a student of ancient history and Rossana let Mario & Paolo know that my son wanted an extremely detailed explanation about the ancient history at each site and that I was interested in the architecture and that my husband wanted to see everything interesting and unusual from brothels to bath houses!! Rossana accompanied us on all 3 tours and shared her vast knowledge and expertise on each tour to supplement the site guides!! She was kind and helpful and made sure we didn't miss anything!! Rossana was also kind enough to take endless pictures of my family and to help answer all our questions after each tour ended and we went to our next destination. We had an hour of driving in between the stops and Rossana kept the conversation flowing with so much interesting information that time flew!! Rossana also was very patient and she answered my many questions about the geography of Italy because I am unfamiliar with Pompeii and Napoli and I had never even heard of Paestum which is near the Amalfi Coast. We were all so impressed with Rossana's expert knowledge...not just of Rome, ancient Rome and all the archeological sites that we visited but also of all of the regions that we traveled through during our all day tour!! We also truly appreciated Rossana's ability to help us to visualize these ancient cities as they once were. She provided interesting background information and very specific details to truly enhance every part of our tour and make it so very special for us!! An extra bonus was that Rossana also recommended a wonderful restaurant across from the Pompeii archeological site!! We invited Rossana and Luigi to join us for lunch and she helped us to order delicious, authentic regional Neopolitan dishes that we had never tried before and wouldn't have ordered if she had not recommended them!! Rossana also made sure to let the owner know that I have food allergies and asked him to make special dishes just for me to accommodate my allergies!! I have never met a tour guide who was so caring and so concerned about my well being!! Rossana is the best tour guide that we have ever met!! The drive home was 4 hours home due to terrible traffic. Luigi is an expert driver and did everything he could to make our trip as safe and as smooth as possible while Rossanna continued to answer all of our many questions all the way back to Rome!! All of us loved this tour and that is thanks to our incredible tour guide Rossana and our driver Luigi who made it extra special for all of us, and especially for my son!! We would highly recommend this tour and especially this tour guide and driver to others because we loved every minute!!
