I am 44, and, since 2004, I have been an authorized professional TOUR GUIDE in NAPLES and ROME Regions. Additionally, I am an N. C. C. licensed DRIVER and I run a Deluxe Mercedes Van with all comforts.
I am the only one, on "Toursbylocals. com" to lead Private Tours in Rome and Naples. I combine my knowledge of the sites with expertise and flexibility to make all my tours informative, dynamic and safe.
I am an excellent "TOUR CREATOR"! This is the reason why I don't have so many "standardized tours" listed on my page! I believe that every private tour is a "unique piece". It must be shaped on the needs and wishes, expectations and feelings, physical attitudes and time factor of my guests.
If you are planning to visit Rome or Naples or if your cruise ship docks in both ports, I can be your personal GUIDE and DRIVER in both areas. You get this way two advantages: one single person to rely on and a way for you to save MONEY.
Pompeii, Herculaneum, Naples, the Amalfi Coast, Capri, Sorrento, but also the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, Colosseum and the whole city of Rome have no secrets for me. This is my LAND and I am the face, voice, and body of it! This is what stimulates me to do my job with competence, passion, and sense of responsibility.
I love to lead tours for FAMILIES and interact with kids, couples, and small parties of friends traveling together. I love to teach and it comes naturally to me to lead EDUCATIONAL TOURS for students. Moreover, I have a specific talent to lead SHORE EXCURSIONS to make, for all cruisers, the best of their time.
So just formulate your request and I will reply to you PROMPTLY.
What about my background? I have a Master Degree in Economics with a Specialization in ECONOMIC HISTORY. Since I was at university my true passion for exploring and my great interests in fine arts and archaeology showed up. I spent many years traveling and working as TOUR LEADER all over Europe for important tour operators. This experience gave me the chance to understand people's lifestyles and to improve the foreign languages which I learned attending the British Council Institute for English, the Instituto Cervantes for Spanish and the Cial for Portuguese.
When I travel abroad, I don't want to be just a spectator standing by a balcony. I want to interact with the locals.
I can't wait to welcome you, to show you my COUNTRY through my eyes and to make you live not a simple tour but an intense journey into the local culture and life.
Do not hesitate a minute longer, follow me and have fun!
Giuseppe
P. S.
If you are looking for your ideal place to stay in Naples, I gently inform you that I have a totally New and sunny Apartment in the Center of Naples, ready to welcome you!
A Recent Review of this guide
Read ReviewsWe just returned from an amazing day with Giuseppe. He was punctual, and very easy to communicate with. We had a wonderful day with him as he took us through the Amalfi coast. We were a party of six, and he had a built in microphone in his car that he would explain the places as he drove by them (awesome). It was one of our favorite day trips so far, He ended our day taking us to a private restaurant just for our family. Delicious food we will be dreaming about. He is now a dear friend! Thanks, Giuseppe!!
