So full of information with added fun made the tour so much fun. He passed us along to Giovanna for a guided tour through Pompei. So much better touring with someone who not only understood the history of the site but was quick to answer any specific questions we had. What a great day!!

Reviewed at 2024-12-03: Great experience! - Our small group tour was a great experience! We toured in a light rain on our day in Capri with two other couples and Captain Roberto. First, we circled the island and took photos then we rode a bus to Anna Capri and stood in line to catch the lift. Unfortunately, the rain steadily increased and the lift was shut down. While on the boat we were served light beverages which were very nice. Great way to tour the island.
