Good tour but rushed. It felt like were were rushing from one thing to see to another. Our guide was very knowledgeable and personable but he had to cover a lot. If I knew then what I know now I'd visit the venues in two different days. Loved the history. Definitely visit the venues but if you can break it into two days.

Excellent guide Gennaro took us round Ercolano first and after an hour and a half we made our way to lunch for an hour ( at our own cost ) before visiting Pompeii ( 25times the size of Herculaneum

This is an ambitious overview tour of two incredible sites. Two hours in each and two hours of travelling/waiting for trains. There is so much to see here that in hindsight we should have done each one separately to be able to stay in each site after the tour ended. The audio quality of the headphone wasn’t great- as soon as you were 30 feet /10 meters away it broke up. Our guide was Paulo - he was very knowledgeable about the two sites, and had lots to tell us - but a lot of his time was spent managing the group and keeping us apart from other groups. It was very very busy! All in all good overview - next time we’ll do each site separately. Felt the price was high for using public transport.
