Great Tour of Pompeii with Linda
Frances_D, Sep 2022
Linda Guadagnuolo was an exceptional guide. She has an archeological degree and made Pompeii come alive for us. Her explanations were excellent, and were enhanced by her sense of humor and personal charm. Her English is also excellent. I'm just sorry that we couldn't engage her for other tours during our stay on the Amalfi Coast. Next time! Many thanks, Linda, from the four of us!
Linda is a great guide

Worth every penny

Best tour guide

Linda is an amazing tour guide. She made the tour fun and educational. She is very knowledgeable and a very nice person. She contacted us immediately after booking the tour and stayed in contact with us in the days leading up to the tour and the day of (we experienced a train delay and she was so understanding). I highly recommend touring Pompeii with Linda. You won't be disappointed. P.s., I had been to Pompeii twice before and this was the best tour by far.
Highlights of Pompeii

Linda was knowledgeable about the Pompeii ruins, and fun. She spoke good English. It could have been better if she had obtained the admission tickets (appropriately reimbursed) but instead we had to purchase them in advance online. Recommended.
Response from Host, Oct 2020
Thank you for your review. I want to clarify about the admission tickets : I can NEVER buy tickets during the COVID restrictions. However I sent you many emails to help you, to answer to all your requests ( day and time changing , private driver and much more) and to make your experience the best. I hope you appreciated it.
Excellent!

We really loved this private guided tour. Linda did a great job showing us around Pompeii in the rain and keeping us away from the crowds as much as possible. She even showed us where to catch the bus to Vesuvius after. Would definitely recommend!!
Private Tour to See the Hidden Gems of Pompeii
Roving07143214334, May 2019
Linda was our English-speaking guide, and she was superb! As a licensed tour guide, she is able to get into a faster queue and obtain the entrance tickets for us. The day got started and it was just my wife and I. We were lucky to get a private tour! Linda is informative and she wants her guests to see the most of Pompeii with the time available. We moved quickly around the massive cruise line and bus tours which often had 25-40 people in a single group. We covered a lot of ground and got to hear about all the mysteries of Pompeii without having to mess with a silly earpiece like the other cattle-call tours. Linda really enjoys sharing her knowledge and respects the historical artifacts with the need for proper conservation efforts to preserve this wonder for years to come. I would recommend this tour. At the end, Linda generously shared some other travel tips in the Naples/Pompeii/Amalfi areas. Much appreciated.
Guida preparatissima
