What To Expect

Pompeii Archaeological Park

Pick-up at the hotel/station/port and transfer to Pompeii to explore one of the most fascinating places of Naples environs by the narration of a professional guide. In roman time Pompei was a rich and populated town, full of private and public buildings. On a summer's day in 79 A.D, the entire town and around 20000 of its inhabitants were buried under tons of ash and pumice because of a violent explosion of Mt Vesuvius. A shower of very fine ash was deposited everywhere to a depth of more than six meters, enveloping everything and adhering to the forms of the bodies and of their clothes. Almost 2.000 years later, you have the opportunity to discover the everyday life of the Imperial Age and imagine the panic of the people before the city was so disastrously buried. In a two hours walking tour, your guide will show you fascinating places such as The Forum, Thermal Baths, Lupanare and so on. This is a trip not to be missed for any visitor to this region of Italy.

Much of this tour is spent waiting such as for late comers, people going to the restroom and waiting for other tours to move onto other areas of interest. The guide was interesting enough, but we were very limited in what we could see due to the business of multiple groups booked on the day. In hindsight, it would be better to move through the site individually as there is a greater opportunity to see more. A real low point was the tour operator asking if we wanted to use the restroom (for a fee of 50 cents) before beginning the actual tour. The toilets were run by rude people and the toilet facilities were dirty. Please note there are free toilets within the Pompeii site. The highlight of the tour was the actual bus ride from Salerno to Pompeii.
Disappointed in Viatour this time.

Pompeii is awesome. Had difficulty understanding guide, although she did very well. Group was large. Was difficult to find the van that picked us up because signage was nonexistent.
Must have a Guide. Great Tour.

After looking forward to experiencing Pompeii, I was very disappointed. We were supposed to have an English speaking guide. We were assigned Susie. She was very difficult to understand. She had a very heavy Italian accent. On many occasions she was far ahead of the group that her microphone cut out as if she was out of range. The group was too large. She walked fast and didn’t wait. There were two people with canes that had some difficulty even staying with the group. That being said, it was very disappointing. You book these tours so that you are able to learn from your guide. Unfortunately that did not happen.
