History
Established in 2010.
The story of "Askos" srl is an exciting example of how two colleagues followed their dream and founded a successful company offering highly popular tailor-made tours.
All began in 2010. Emiliano e Felicia were keen on advancing and promoting a wonderful patrimony of history in the archaeological area around Vesuvius. These highly energetic archaeology experts had all that was needed for their responsible mission. Firstly, they possessed vast knowledge and many years experience in the field of ancient art, history and material culture. Secondly, they were able to manage all aspects of organization: routes, logistics, negotiations with locals. Finally, they had skills of communicating information clearly & effectively to people from all social and professional backgrounds. That is indeed the best recipe for an effective and positive encounter with the fascinating world of ancient history: friendly and knowledgeable people who love their job and country and wish to share it.
