Amazing guided tour - AMAZING guided tour with Lello! If you’re going to Pompeii for the first time, you should definitely book a guided tour with Lello. He is the best tour guide we’ve ever had. He made sure we skipped the queue, so we didn’t have to wait in the long queues. That was great. Then he started the tour by telling us about how the area around Pompeii looked like back then. That was amazing to hear, and it really helped us understand, how beautiful and big both the Vulcano and the sea was. Afterwards he guided us into the ruins of Pompeii, and this is were the magic began. Throughout the whole tour he brought back the old Pompeii, and made us feel like we were living there. We’ve never tried anything like this before, it was incredible. Thanks for an amazing day! You’re the best Lello! Best regards The Jensens

Fantastic experience giving a true insight to life in Roman Pompeii. Leonardo was excellent. - Leonardo was a fantastic guide to Pompeii. He helped us get in while avoiding the cruise-ship crowds and took us on a route so we saw all the best sights without the crowds. His explanations were thorough and fascinating, giving depth and life to the site. He also drew our attention so smaller items which we would not of seen without him but which were fascinating like particularly high-quality fresco and the remnants of the water pipes. I highly recommend a guide for Pompeii to really understand what you are seeing, and Leonardo was particularly good.

Great storyteller - Our guide was very good. We have no idea if he's actually an archaeologist or not but he tells a good story and he keeps everyone's interest. The ruins are truly incredible as is the history. We're definitely glad we included it as part of our trip.

Diisorganized start and very large group - We had difficulty locating the tour guide due to a change in the meeting location. Once we did, we learned our tour would start 30 minutes late and consist of 23 people! This, despite assurances I had received from the tour operator through earlier communications that the group would be small as advertised. This was definitely not a “small group tour with an archaeologist”. While the guide was good, she was not an archaeologist. Pompeii was very crowded and it was difficult to keep 23 people together. We often missed out on explanations and sites. Our tour ended short of 2 hours. Not the best experience.

Bait and Switch - BAIT and SWITCH. Not semi-private, not limited to seven people, not an archeologist leading the tour. We specifically chose this tour because the listing in two places said it was limited to seven people. There were 13 people on the tour. We were all given earpieces to hear the guide because it was so large. The guide was friendly and informative enough, but it was not interactive. It was really disappointing.
