          A wonderful day in Pompeii and Herculaneum
          We spent a wonderful day in Pompeii and Herculaneum with a stop for lunch at Cantina del Vesuvio. Fabrizio was extremely knowledgeable and made sure that we had an enjoyable experience. We were initially supposed to go to Pompeii first, but he suggested we switch the order of our tours which turned out to be the best thing, as we practically had Herculaneum to ourselves. Lunch at the winery with wine tasting was delicious. Pompeii in the afternoon was a bit crowded, but we were able to tailor what we wanted to see. They were currently doing an excavation which we were able to observe which was extremely interesting -- from people using shovels and wheelbarrows to remove the pumice, to others using delicate brushes to remove dust. The frescos were amazing. I would highly recommend this tour and Fabrizio.

          Fabrizio is simply the best!!
          We had been to Pompeii twice before, but neither of those times docould possibly compare to the experience that Fabrizio provided! He knew exactly how to avoid the crowds and maximize our time. His depth of knowledge was vast, and he was completely committed to making our time in Pompeii the best it could be. Lunch and wine tasting was delightful as well! You will not have a better experience than with Fabrizio! We cannot thank him enough for a wonderful day!

          Pompeii is Amazing even better due to Fabrizio
          Fabrizio was knowledgeable informative and very friendly. We arrived early and he knew exactly where to take us, often being in buildings alone before the crowd. We were able to maximize our time due to his guidance.

          Best sights of Pompei and fantastic wine with Fabrizio!
          I’ve been to Pompei before, but this time I got so much more out of the experience than the first. Not only the learning, but Fabrizio took us on a well guided tour curated for the most fascinating sights in pompei while keeping it concise and timely to avoid complete heat exhaustion. The winery was beautiful and the views were great. The wine is some of the best I’ve had. Overall, Fabrizio was great and a very kind, considerate, knowledgeable, and understanding individual. Definitely recommend.

          Best experience in Italy!
          This is an absolute must do. My family and I did a tour through Pompeii and it was unbelievable. Fabrizio knew exactly where to go and when to go there. It felt like we were the only ones in Pompeii and we were able to see the ruins before any crowds showed up. My family of five was asking questions the entire time and Fabrizio had an exact answer for everything we could think of. Best of all, he was able to customize the tour and sights so that we spent our energy going to exactly what we wanted to see most. I’ve done several tours in many countries and this is the one that will stick with me the most. We were truly immersed in the history and culture of Ancient Rome. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Italy. Five stars is not enough.

          Family tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum with lunch at a winery.
          The tour picked us up at our VRBO location and the van ride to and from our tour destinations was comfortable. Our guide, Fabrizio, was very informative. His English was excellent. He was detailed in his answers to our question. He gave history lesson of Pompeii and Herculaneum as we drove from Sorrento which helped prepare us for the tours I wouldn’t suggest doing this tour on really hot days, not much shade or places to sit. Fabrizio did check on us regularly and gaged the pace of the tour on our mobility and interest. He asked frequently if we were feeling okay or need to rest. The winery stop was nice, but the “tour” seemed more about getting you to buy their products. Lunch at the winery was acceptable but not memorable. This was a very enjoyable tour and would suggest it to others. We wished we could have had Fabrizio for all our tours in Italy.

        Can't say enough about our tour with Fabrizio. He made our tour so interesting with stories of the past and detailed facts about the area and ruins, when they were discovered and where the recovered relics are now located. Fabrizio is passionate about his work and clearly loves doing what he does. Highly recommend his expertise for anyone visiting Italy.

        What an incredible experience! Fabrizio was a very knowledgeable guide of the area and was very flexible with our plans ahead of time as well as making adjustments and required pit stops during the tour.

        He was also incredibly funny which we really appreciated. My parents are Spanish speaking only and he was very fluent in both Spanish/English and accommodated properly for the tour. His tour bus had the perfect temperature control (it was blazing hot during our visit in August) which kept us cool throughout the day.

        A highlight of the tour was his guidance at Pompeii, he knew so much of the history and made the experience a good one as he knew what areas to start and end at to avoid the summer crowds. This is an overdue review by a couple of months but wowwww I can't recommend him enough!

        I cannot imagine doing this day with anyone else! From start to finish Fabrizio was an excellent tour guide. His knowledge of historical facts about Pompeii was impressive and sparked interest in all of us. Then the drive along the Amalfi coast was perfect! He was flexible and willing to offer ideas for lunch but allowed us to decide what we wanted to see! My daughters only wanted to get out in Positano so he made it happen.

        If you think you can rent a vehicle and drive the coast yourself, you are crazy! Get Fabrizio!

        Our long time travel agent referred us, a party of 4, to Fabrizio. He connected with me initially through WhatsApp on where and when to meet. Pickup time and location was on-time and accurate. His luxury van was immaculate, equipped with water and phone chargers, plenty of seating space and cold air conditioning. Fabrizio, speaks fluent English, was extremely knowledgable, fun, light-spirited, took as many photos asked and presented us with amazing choices on our journey through Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast. He was kind, patient and drove the winding cliffs with care and ease. What an amazing experience we had! Thank you Fabrizio for your care and attention to every detail. We hope to meet you again!!

        This was an easy unforgettable trip! We traveled in a beautiful Mercedes van with cold AC, comfortable seats and lots of room. We traveled to Amalfi coast and had plenty of time for shopping and a beverage in both Positano and Sorerento! He gave us bathroom breaks and a great tour with stopping point for pictures! He was very knowledgeable and a patient driver! Fabrizio was so well informed about Pompeii and all the highlights were hit! I cannot recommend Fabrizio enough and how easy it was to be picked up right off the cruise ship! Do it! You won’t regret it!

        We had a wonderful day with Fabrizio! He knows a lot about the history and even what is still being discovered in Pompeii. He never made us feel, rushed and allowed us to choose how our day was spent. The ride along the coast was beautiful and he pulled over often for us to take pictures. Fabrizio will have our business again.

        Spend a few hours in Pompeii, and a few hours in Ravello and then on the Amalfi coast. Fabrizio is polite, courteous, professional, and very knowledgeable, not only about archaeology but also about Italy from antiquity to the modern times. Learned so much by speaking with him. He customized the trip as per our requests and and took us places and restaurants that we absolutely loved!!
