Pompeii archaeological tour, WOW! (Thank you Camillo) - We did the tour led by Camillo Sorrentino on 14/08.
the tour he led was beautiful and included the highlights of the whole city, seasoned with a lot of extremely interesting information on constructions, uses of the Pompeian era and the history of excavations.
All in a light and nice way, really a great guide / popularizer.
Highly recommended!!!

Excellent tour of Pompei! - Took a 3 hour guided tour of Pompei with Mena and it was a highlight of our trip! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the ruins and took us to see all of the important areas. We would not have appreciated as much about the area without her guidance as the area is quite large. Would highly recommend this tour if in the area!

Outstanding - best historical tour I’ve ever taken! - This tour (Askos Tours) was worth every penny and then some. We had the pleasure of having the knowledgeable and witty Yolanda as our guide. As a decently well-traveled history nerd, I cannot say enough positive things about Yolanda and her knowledge and passion for Pompeii and its history. Her tour was easily the highlight of my trip and she was outstanding in every way. I was skeptical to have a true “archeologist” leading us, but quickly realized we were with a true expert and student of history.
This tour is a must-do in Pompeii.
