~ :: Lucia Pompeii Guide :: ~

The very best part of our recent trip to the Sorrentine peninsula and the Amalfi coast was the good luck we had in finding Lucia. We cannot say enough great things about her! The hotel we were staying at in Amalfi only offered large busload of people tours of Pompeii. I found Lucia online, and on short notice she was able to arrange a car and driver to fetch us to Pompeii and back for an early morning tour of Pompeii. While it was high season and Lucia herself was booked with other tours, she arranged for Donato to give us a tour.

Donato is a miracle! His passion, knowledge, and expertise immediately drew us in to ancient Pompeii, its bustling seaport, and the daily lives of its citizens. We were overwhelmed and amazed by all we learned and still reflect daily on all we saw. I feel like we are friends with Lucia and Donato for life now. We can't wait to return to Pompeii again, but we will never go back without Lucia or Donato as our companions and guides.

We toured Pompeii with Lucia at the beginning of April 2013. It was a wonderful experience - the highlight of our trip. We toured the ruins for 3 hours and were very impressed. We all learned so much. we especially liked the way Lucia geared her explanations to our 10-year-old daughter. Lucia had a fantastic ability to explain history, archeology and geology for school-age children and adults alike. We particularly enjoyed the way she tought us to "read" the ruins and understand what Pompeii would have looked like? After the tour we spent another good three hours touring the site on our own. Later on our vacation we went to Paestum and applied our freshly gained knowledge to understanding those ruins.
We can all definitely recommend a tour of Pompeii? It is a lasting memory for all generations and Lucia made it come alive for us. We are convinced that our daughter learned some valuable history lessons and gained appreciation for the evolution of time as a result of the tour and Lucia.

We engaged Lucia to guide us around Pompeii May 21 2013. It was one of the best days of our trip. Lucia is an excellent guide, knowledgeable about Pompeii the history previous to 79 AD and after. We would and will recommend Lucia to any of our friends traveling to Italy. Thanks Lucia.

Don't miss a tour with Lucia, her knowledge and passion for Pompeii is incredible. My friend and I had a 3 hour tour and from the time I first sent Lucia an email she was extremely informative and helpful. We met at the station and she had us organised with water and tickets whilst others were still looking for the line. I can't recommend a tour with Lucia highly enough. It was a highlight of our trip to Italy.

We recently completed a 3 hour Pompei tour with Lucia and it was fantastic. We learned so much more about the site by having Lucia as our guide than had we tried to do it on our own. It is definitely worth the money! She was very informative and very friendly. I would highly recommend engaging Lucia as your guide for this remarkable place.

We were blessed by a delightful family trip to Italy in August of 2010.(17 of us in all) We spent several hours one day with Lucia as our guide through Pompeii and down the Amalfi Coast to Serrento. It was a dream come true!! Truly, ever since I was young, I can remember looking at books and magazines and devouring anything on Pompeii. Lucia is such a delightful lady! She made this day one I pray I will remember forever! Her knowledge of this area and the history here is remarkable! You will not be disappointed with Lucia as your guide! She's warm and friendly and as easy to spend the day with as a dear longtime friend!

My husband and I had a 3 hour tour of Pompeii with Lucia a couple of weeks ago. She was such a pleasure to be with, we felt like we were spending the morning with a friend. Lucia is not only knowledgeable about Pompeii but is so personable as well. Our Italy vacation would not have been the same without her.

We hired Lucia for 3 hours, April 2011. She was excellent. We had discussed via email what sort of tour I wanted and it was tailored to take into account my children. Lucia knows her subject very well. She talks with enthusiasm and is good with children, involving them in her tour. Thanks for bringing history alive for all of us.

My wife, 7yr old daughter and I spent over two fantastic hours with Lucia on 19th April 2011 touring Pompeii.
She met us at the station in Sorrento and we travelled by train with her to the site whilst chatting all the way. The two hour tour of Pompeii was very informative and yet relaxed. Lucia is very knowledgeable and answered all our questions and was happy for us to stop and take photos.
We would highly recommend a tour with her. Money well spent in our opinions!
Thanks very much Lucia we thoroughly enjoyed our day.
