- Pompeii Archaeological Park - One of the most important archaeological site in the World, Pompeii is like a city frozen in time. The dramatic eruption of Vesuvius on August 24, 79 A.D., destroyed this flourishing city but also preserved a slice of Ancient Roman life. Your will walk down Roman streets and snoop around millennia-old houses, temples, shops, cafes, amphitheatres, and even a brothel.
- Parco Acheologico di Ercolano - Allegedly founded by Hercules, a lot of travellers prefer Herculaneum to Pompeii as it is much smaller and better preserved. This ancient site is one of the few places in the world that can be seen in almost its original conditions, because a deep layer of hot mud buried it deeply, preserving everything beneath. You will find thousands of everyday objects, from price lists outside the shops, to beds, doors and even food.
- Vesuvius National Park - The only active Volcano on mainland Europe will capture you with its unmatched views of the area from the top.
The cone stays roughly 4200 feet high, but however far you will venture up you will be able to see the entire gulf of Naples, from Sorrento to Capo Miseno, to Procida & Ischia.
Take the opportunity to trek up to the top and peer into its enormous crater!

So much history - Too many things to see. How to do it all? Ask for an added private tour guide and they can make it happen! Tailored the tour to our needs and was a volume of information!!!! Bring bug spray, water and sunscreen and enjoy all that history as to offer. The hike is steep up Vesuvius but go slow and take your time. It’s worth it!

Terrific Day of Pompei, Vesuvius & Herculaneum with Paolo and Danilo - Danilo, our driver, was personable, professional and delightful! He engaged and entertained us with interesting local knowledge as he skillfully navigated to all the venues. Paolo, our tour guide, was excellent and was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic at the Pompei and Herculaneum venues. Paolo was passionate with his presentation and really provided us with a glimpse of life in ancient Pompei. He also was an excellent photographer and set up the perfect backgrounds for great family vacation memories. It was a great day! Highly recommend!

Excellent Experience - Our driver Danielo was very skilled with navigating the winding roads of Sorrento. He was very patient when it came to cross traffic.
Our guide Paolo was knowledgeable and provided plenty of interesting information for both Pompeii and Herculaneum.

Great company and a wonderful experience! - This trip was absolutely incredible. I went from traveling in a group to traveling alone last minute. I was nervous how the experience would be, but it was a wonderful day. Angelo picked my up, and was my driver all day. He was timely, great in conversation, provided some wonderful food recommendations, and even showed me some additional views of the bay of Naples. At every location he made sure I was well taken care of, and that I got where I needed to be. The tour guide that the company set up also provided a wholistic experience at Herculaneum, and Pompeii. If you are very active, have a full day to burn, love history, and don’t mind doing some hiking/walking this package is wonderful! Hopefully you get Angelo to really take your day from a 10/10 to a 11/10.

Tour with Gianluca - This was a great trip with our driver; Gianluca. We were picked up in a good size van with comfortable seating for 4. On our way to the sites, Gianluca provided a lot of background information on the local area and was extremely friendly. When we got to Mt. Vesuvius, the weather turned rainy, so we couldn’t hike. So, Gianluca made a call and set up a wine tasting for us that wasn’t on our schedule. It was a great unplanned stop.
We highly recommend taking this tour with Gianluca if you can.

Incredible experience that makes the ruins become alive - Wow! AMAZING!
Tour guide has a real sense of humor as well as being super articulate and creating a comfortable environment.
The amount of knowledge was impeccable and so particularly pictured.. Visiting alone would not have been nearly as enjoyable.
The tour guide was so attentive, providing us water and bringing us to Pomei in the morning to avoid crowds and making sure the heat wouldn't be unbearable.
Transfer driver was also very punctual and provided free water the whole day.
Our tour guide was named "Paulo".

Great service - We used Joe Bananas Limos for our recent holiday in Italy. We used them for several tours and transfers. From start to finish, all services were at such a high standard. The whole team were professional and made our holiday that much more comfortable and our day trips special. Would definitely recommend them!
