FANTASTIC TOUR OF POMPEII! - We had Ciccio as our archeologist guide and he was absolutely fantastic and a very, very nice guy! We felt like we really got to see the best highlights of Pompeii (which was a lot larger of a ruins complex than we realized)! He was extremely knowledgeable and provided a detailed tour and was able to answer our many questions! We had the most fabulous time AND he was also happy to take photos for us of our group on my phone and he has a great eye for photography too!

Perfect Guide - Great guide, able to impart her deep knowledge and understanding of the time, and engage in discussion. English excellent. I overheard other guides with groups and guides with only 2 people, they were not in her league.

Best way to tour Pompeii with private tour - We did 2 hour private tour with Eliana. I booked directly through her website after reading many tour reviews. She was excellent and I would highly recommend this tour. Her knowledge and insight of Pompeii made it even more fascinating to experience this wonderful place. To be able to ask endless questions on a private tour is really lovely so for our group of 4 it worked really well as we were able to cover so much of Pompeii with Eliana.
