We had a guide in Pompei, Antoniella, who was very good. She didn't recite her text, her explanations were captivating.

Super organized. We found the meeting point described without any problems and really enjoyed the German tour with Liliana. Despite the very busy excavations, we were taken to many interesting corners of Pompeii and everything was explained clearly and interestingly. Highly recommended and many thanks to Liliana!
