about

Paolo Mondola

Hi to everyone, I’m an archaelogist and I have been working as tour guide (license n° 1792 of the Campania Region) for several years . I was born in in the middle of the bay of Naples, by the mount Vesuvius. I have always loved history and archaeology, also because, where I live, there are the incredible excavations of Herculaneum.

Since I was a child, I loved entering in Herculaneum and in Pompeii where I was amazed by the classical civilization. So I turned my passion into my work, being a licensed tourist guide.

I graduated at the “L’Orientale” University in Naples obtaining a master degree in Classical Archaeology and during my training I participated in several excavation campaigns in Pompeii and Cuma.

I know very well even the city of Naples, where its historical center is Unesco Heritage, the bay of Pozzuoli and the Amalfi Coast: Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. It’s a unique place in the world where you can breathe a magical air. It’s also famous for its food, just think that the pizza Margherita was born here.

I love my land rich of history and culture.
Welcome to the real Italy.
