Not to be missed - Pompeii was simply amazing. The scope and scale of this city was incredible and to see what Vesuvius accomplished in 18 hours is overwhelming. Our guide, SASA was incredible!

Great learning experience - Our tour guide was very informative at POMPEII. I just wish we had more time there. We had two hours with our tour guide but could have spent a few more hours on our own afterwards. We then went to Mount VESUVIUS......a disaster due to an incoming rainstorm combined with 40 mph winds......we couldn't see anything......not their fault at all.

Pompeii - Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Pompeii and its history. He explained about the relationship between the Pompeiians and the Roman's, which we found very interesting.

Wonderful - Francesca was a wonderful guide. She was very informative as well, energetic and fun. We really enjoyed the newly restored house. It gave us a real sense of how people lived during that time.
We highly recommend!!

Best tour of Pompeii!!! - Sasa is an amazing tour guide! He is of Pompeian ancestry and goes above and beyond to teach the true history and purpose of the relics (he has multiple degrees in history and his family has done this for three generations.) His English is great and he addressed our individual interests personally. He is friendly, engaging, and funny. We highly recommend booking this tour. We learned so much more than most people who visited! Pompeii is a must-see spot. If I return I will definitely book another tour with him. He did not put pressure but remember to tip any tour guide in Italy because that is customary in their culture.

Great guide - Frankie was a great guide and very informative. We visited all the main sights and having an early start meant we missed the crowds. We would have liked a bit longer to take in the amphitheatre

It was fine - Transportation was great, our guide of Pompeii was average. Her English was pretty good, but I don’t think she had the English skills to effectively communicate what we were seeing etc.
