Don’t go to Pompeii or Herculaneum without Pina!

My husband and I hired Rick Steves recommended guide Dr. Anna Maria “Pina” Esposito for 2 days while in the Naples area. We spent 6 hours with her each day. The first day was a Naples city tour and a half day at the Archaeological Museum. The 2nd day was spent at Pompeii and Herculaneum. She is incredibly knowledgeable, entertaining, and passionate about her subject matter. I felt as though I was attending the most fascinating personal tutoring session on the history and archeology of the Naples area. She tied the objects and information at the Archeological Museum in Naples to the excavations at Pompeii/ Herculaneum in a way that I could never forget. Absolutely 2 amazing days…..highly recommend…

I’m not sure what her hourly rate was because we hired her for 2 six hour days. I think she was about $1000 for 12 hours. It was money well spent. We’ve hired other private guides in other locales & she was a notch above all.
