100% recommend if anyone is looking for the best tour guide in Naples!
Can't put into words how grateful we are that Luca was able to spend two days with us! Exceptionally correct communication, on time! We visited Herculaneum + Vesuvius + Pompeii in one day and also had lunch at the Bosco di Medici wine estate. On the second day we went to the island of Capri. Forever grateful that Luca spent time with us, his knowledge of ancient cities is indescribably good, details and interesting facts! Just great! As a person, he is friendly and caring! He has the ability to notice those people around him who are not even part of the group but needed help. He is caring and helpful towards them too! An incredibly nice person!
Thank you Luca! ... or view verified reviews on
