Best tour ever in Pompeii

Published on Jan, 2025

This was one of the best tours we have ever been on. We were two families of four. After reading multiple reviews we knew we wanted Eliana to be our guide in Pompeii. We were lucky to have her leading us. She was so engaging, knowledgeable and interesting. Her stories, history and expertise made the day so memorable! Everyone in the group loved the tour! It was so great to hear about all of Pompeii and about Eliana’s life and training as an archeologist. We were very lucky as it was December 31st and there was no excavation work going on so in addition to all of the sections of Pompeii Elisha showed us (including her first project), we were able to see where she worked in an ongoing project. It was so fascinating! Our tour ending with Eliana giving us great pizza recommendations in Naples. Eliana was an amazing guide and human being. We would highly recommend touring with her!!!

Family trip to Naples.
