Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Lucia gave our family of 5 a fantastic 2 hour tour of Pompeii. She did an amazing job interacting with our 3 young children and keeping them interested in the site and history. Her knowledge of the site is incredible and made our trip so much more interesting. She also had great suggestions of where to visit after our tour, and our family explored Pompeii for about 5 hours total.

We visited Pompeii with Lucia as our private guide. We started the tour at 9 am and finished at 1 pm. Lucia is an experienced guide with a vast knowledge of Pompeii and its history. My wife and I went with our 15-year old girl and 13-year old boy. Fortunately, the weather was not too hot that day and we were able to explore most of the ruins. I was worried whether my children and, particularly, my boy would be able to take four hours of history and sight seeing. Lucia did a wonderful job of keeping us and the children engaged for all of the four hours. She is clear in her language and varies her tone to keep everyone's energy high. With the benefit of hindsight, we could have done the necropolis and skipped a few of the merchants' houses but that would probably have meant walking all the way to the other side and hence not been possible. I would recommend Lucia highly for her depth of knowledge and engaging manner.

We were a group of four (two couples) and would give Lucia 6 stars if we could. We went to Pompei in the morning and then Herculaneum in the afternoon. Lucia's depth of knowledge is exceptional and she brought it all to life. We saw the big tour groups walking behind their guide with the earpieces and were so glad we paid more for our own guide. It is so good to be able to ask questions and get such good answers. If you are going to Pompei, book Lucia. You won't be disappointed.

We were booked in for Lucia's tour of Pompeii by Luisa from Sorrento Silver Star. She was an absolute fountain of information and very personable! She was also able to help us skip the queue at the entrance and elsewhere. Lucia's wonderful anecdotes of everyday life and politics in the city really brought Pompeii to life for us and we had such a great time!

We spent two days packed with information and historical insights with Lucia at Herculaneum and Pompeji. We were impressed by her broad and deep knowledge. She gave us a lot of context, not only dates and figures. We enjoyed her engaged style and really appreciate that she tirelessly gave us the facts over 6hrs (!) in Pompeji. They passed very quickly and we learned and saw so much. It was amazing. On top, she organized tickets, drivers and a guide for Naples and Paestum, as well.
When coming back, we'll definitely book her again. Thank you very much!

We can highly recommend Lucia! She gave us a wonderful two hour tour of Pompeii that was very informative and filled us in on a lot of context about Pompeii that we would have not gotten if we had toured on our own. Our two kids very much enjoyed the tour as well and she was amazing at tailoring information to their interests as well! Highly recommend this tour for families and adults!

Lucia did a 3-hour tour for my husband and I of Pompeii and it was fantastic. She was so knowledgeable and her explanations were so detailed and interesting. We watched other people studying the map and trying to figure out where they were going and we were so thrilled to have someone who had a plan. She focused on the art and the mosaics which are visible in the houses and then at the end we got to see the current excavation in progress. She also gave us a tremendous sense of the historical period. I had wondered if a 3-hour tour would be too much and it was not - enjoyed every minute. It is a very big place and it is really worth having a guide. She was very helpful with respect to trains and buying tickets etc as well.

Lucia is simply the best tour guide for Pompeii and Herculaneum. This is the third time we have booked private tours with her. Her knowledge is vast and she is so passionate about the history, she really brings ancient Pompeii and Herculaneum to life. She is a lovely person too, really friendly and so helpful. We will certainly book with Lucia on our next visit to Italy.

We (2 adults, 2 teens) had a 3 hour guided tour of Pompeii with Lucia. Pompeii is an amazing place to visit but with Lucia guiding us and talking about the history the place really came alive. She has so much energy, enthusiasm and knowledge and brilliant at engaging us all.

Our guide Lucia was extremely knowledgeable, very accommodating, and a pleasure to follow around Pompei to learn the most fascinating history about this site. We wished it lasted even longer as we all enjoyed our excursion. Highly recommend this guide for a visit to Pompei.

How much do the 2hr tours cost with Lucia ?
Written 6 May 2019
Wow sorry for such a late answer to your question - the private guide cost, at that time, was 140 Euros and did not include admission to Scavi di Pompeii (15 Euros per person).
