Once the crowd has dispersed, it’s the perfect moment! The lighting for photos will be excellent, and the park will be nearly deserted, not to mention cooler.

Best Pompeji Tour - The tour with Glauco was amazing.
He has a deep knowledge of the history of Pompeji and knows how to tell a good story. It is a gift to be able to share your knowledge as entertaining and precise!
We had the feeling to spend a relaxed afternoon with a friend who was open to all our questions and personalized the tour to our knowledge and needs.
Thank you for this unforgettable tour Glauco!
All the best to you !!!
Thank you Antonio, Thomas & Sondra

Napoli the city of beautiful people and sites - We spent two days with Glauco. On the first day we visited Naples were a catered the visit to our preferences. We started with the most amazing coffee we have ever tasted (we won’t reveal the secret, you will have to book him) and went on to a fantastic tour of the city with a focus on art which was our interest. He then took us for a fabulous lunch like we have never experienced.
The following day we went to Pompeii where Glauco brought the city to life. We had a fabulous lunch at Suisse Pompeii where we were met by nothing but kindness, a cheerful ambiance and efficiency.
I had an issue with medication that was solved swiftly by Glauco who found a way to keep it refrigerated and a way to organise an ice pack for the rest of the trip.
Glauco showed us the best there is to see of Napoli and more.
Thank you for an unforgettable experience.

Glauco? meum ciceronĕm! - Afternoon visit to Pompeii with a 6-year-old boy in tow with whom Glaucus has related in an affable and engaging way.
His general culture goes beyond the classic historical and notional explanation, offering the possibility to satisfy every curiosity posed, ranging in various areas and levels of knowledge.
Thank you Glauco! We really hope to meet again soon

Visit of Herculaneum and Pompeii - Excellent knowledge and historical and cultural competence. I appreciated the simplicity of the explanations with the historical references that made the illustration of the sites very complete. It has also captured the attention of the 3 teenagers with great appreciation of the same. They said they were very satisfied. Thank you.

Unforgettable Pompeii Tour with an Exceptional Guide - We had an incredible experience exploring Pompeii with Glauco as our guide. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also brought the history to life with fascinating stories, insights, and context that we would have completely missed on our own.
His passion for the site and deep understanding of its history made the tour both engaging and memorable. Glauco also took the time to tailor the experience to our interests and answer all our questions with genuine enthusiasm.
If you're visiting Pompeii, I couldn’t recommend Glauco more highly—he truly made our visit unforgettable!
