Great tour of Pompeii and Vesuvius - We had a big group of 15 people with about half being children. We had an Amazing tour and hike of Vesuvius and a very informative tour of Pompeii (which is spectacular)! Enjoyed equally by kids and parents alike. Highly recommend! Valentina was super responsive and able to help with this tour and my mother in law and brother in law’s tour of the Amalfi coast. They also had a great time. Thank you!
