Everyone agreed this was the highlight of our trip. Our guide Lello was absolutely incredible to say the least. It ended up just being our little group of four in his group so we got a private tour of Pompeii. He was so knowledgeable but his personality was what made the tour exceptional. He took us around and we got to see a lot in our time there. I would definitely request him and this tour!

We went to Pompei two weeks ago and had a wonderful time. Our tour guide was very knowledgable he helped us find the best spots for taking pictures and made sure that we saw all the best of Pompeii. He made recommendations of other things to see when the tour was over and encouraged us to explore on our own. Our guide was the best and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone else coming to Pompeii.

Italo was a fantastic guide for 2 hours around Pompeii. Very relaxed, humorous and knowledgeable. Went by train from Sant Agnello which took about 50 minutes. Went in April. Wouldn’t like to visit in summer though. I expect it would be difficult to get around
