Alberto was one of the best docents we have met through Context. He knew so much, not just about archaeology around the Vesuvius area, but also about Naples food and wine, Italian history, Italian politics and art. He was also a very nice person.

Everything was perfect. Riccardo was excellent and a delight to spend the day with. He answered all our questions easily. Lunch was an unexpected treat at a lovely winery. And the driver Enzo was very good.

Knowing where to enter Pompeii, interweaving human interest commentary in a way that made the ruins come alive. It was good to have focus of Pompeii and Herculaneum be the remains, and not as much on the tragedy. It was good to have a guide who appreciated the fact that we wanted to see Oplontis, and was knowledgeable about the site. Our guide's background seemed a little less formal than other guides we have used with Context Travel. The experience of lunch seemed a little commercial to me. My husband loved it. The day ended a bit short. Driver was very respectful, accommodating us in every way.
