5.00An excellent experience getting information that you would not receive if you did it on your own. Being able to do both sites in one day with a qualified archaeologist/guide was phenomenal. Michele was professional and so full of knowledge and delivered that knowledge with passion and humour too. Being able to go by coach to, from and between our destinations with the excellent driver Sal made the day seamless. Not having to think about where to go or what to do next is a luxury! If you’re thinking about booking this tour or you’re comparing it with another option, stop looking and book this one. You will not regret it!
Must see! Our guide had...

5.00Must see! Our guide had training as an archeologist but this was not a dry academic tour. Funny, lively, packed with facts and really able to bring the cities of Herculaneum and Pompeii into our imaginations. Tour doesn't include food but does have a stop at a large mall with plenty of options and, most importantly, AC!! You will not be disappointed booking with this company.
Vince was a fantastic tour guide.

5.00I had a great experience doing the guided tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum with Askos Tours after booking the experience via Viator. Our guide Alfredo was very courteous and knowledgeable as we explored both historical sites. I would advise if you are traveling during July/summertime to make sure you bring water, sun umbrella, fan, sunscreen, etc... because it does get quite hot! There is an opportunity to get your own lunch in the mall near Pompeii after finishing Herculaneum in the morning.

5.00Our tour guide, Raphael "as in the archangel"...his reference not ours LOL was not only extremely knowledgable of Pompeii and Herculaneum history but wove wonderful humor into his factual provisions. Tour walked at a nice pace especially considering the brutal heat we experienced at the time. He also secured tables at a lovely restaurant for lunch prior to our Pompeii tour. We had a wonderful small group of people which allowed for a more intimate tour in comparison to other large groups. Transportation was provided in an extremely clean and comfortable van with AC... shout out to our driver! Meeting location was very convenient in the center of Naples. Highly recommended tour and so glad we chose it.
