Pompeii guided tour with Vincenzo - Fascinating tour with one of the site archaeologists, Vincenzo, who was very knowledgeable not only on the physical and cultural history of Pompeii, but also on how the archaeological investigations were carried out. I have to admit we were in two minds whether or not a tour would be worthwhile - having now done the tour I would say it is essential to understand the history and culture. After the tour, you can stay on the site wander around as long as you wish.

Focused information on your points of interest - Mena was the guide. She focused on what we were interested in- the remaining pieces of day to day art and the life style of the various people and positions. It was very informative and she was very patient with my focus on photos as well. We absolutely enjoyed the entire tour.

Definitely recommend this company - Tour guide Paulo was terrific! He had a good sense of humour, advocated for the group against queue skippers, was very knowledgeable & patient. We booked with Askos Tours based on a recommendation & would definitely recommend them too!

10/10 tour and tour guide. Would 100% recommend! - We had such a wonderful tour experience with Paulo. He was so knowledgeable and kind at sharing his information that we were able to spend another several hours at the park using his knowledge and information to guide us round. We also were then able to use this when we visited Herculaneum another day. The tour was perfect and an excellent size, we saw everything we needed or wanted to see and more. We did the 9.10 tour and that was the perfect time as it was cool and not too busy! Would also recommend bringing your lunch as the food is expensive and didn't look overly tasty - we got to eat ours overlooking the amphitheatre!

Beautiful Tour and Top Guide - Great tour. Full of history, art and humanity. Special mention should be made to the Guide Dr. Camillo Sorrentino. Really prepared and passionate. Without him she would not have been the same Pompeii. We'll be back.
