5.00We had a fabulous tour to Pompeii and Mt Vesuvio with Nicolo and our driver Attillio. Nicolo entertained us with historical information about the area while Attillio expertly navigated the roads (no small feat!) Teresa led our tour of Pompeii-changing her planned route at the last minute to avoid all of the other groups—super helpful! We appreciated that we all had headsets and could clearly hear her wonderful descriptions of all things Pompeii. Delicious pizza lunch (a whole pizza!) followed by a hike up Mt Vesuvio. This was a long day but so rewarding!
You must have to do it!

5.00It was wonderful to learn about Pompeii in ways I hadn't known before😁 As you guys know, without any prior information, Pompeii just looks like a pile of stones😂😂😂 Traveling while listening to the behind-the-scenes stories of each ruin made the experience feel completely different. The knowledgeable guide's kind explanations made the trip even more enriching. You absolutely must sign up for this guided tour in Pompeii. It is not an option, it is a must!!!!!💪💫🥰

5.00My friends and I were in Naples last week and decided to take a day trip to Pompeii. It was absolutely incredible! The ruins are breathtakingly beautiful, but what truly made the experience special was our guide. He was fantastic and shared so much knowledge about the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, along with many fascinating facts about the city’s daily life and ancient culture. It really felt like stepping back 2,000 years in time. I highly recommend everyone to book a guided tour to fully appreciate the history of this site. It is a must-see for anyone visiting the area!
