Great Experience - Guisy was an amazing guide very informative. Capri was amazing and Pompeii was very big. Definitely a lot to take in but so worth it for only having a day at port. Will highly recommend

Picture perfect! - It was an unforgettable day! My tour guide was Titti. She’s such a pleasant person which made the experience even more memorable. At the meeting point, she welcomes you with a smile which sets the tone for the day. She’s fluent in Spanish, Italian and English. She remembers your name! I bumped into her the next day and she called my name as if we were old friends. Both Pompeii and Capri were picturesque. I will never forget.

Excellent tour - It has been a very entertaining trip. First we visited Pompeii full of history, very well directed by Donatella our tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the history of Pompeii. After we visited the island of Capri, we traveled by catamaran and went up by funicular to a spectacular view. All the time accompanied by Giovanni, very pleasant and very organized. High marks to both.
