5.00This was the perfect tour for us. Gino was very informative and funny, we'd been advised by a few friends that we should give Pompeii a miss as it's too big and too hot. But by having an experienced guide we learnt so much in this express tour, I highly recommend it.

Magical tour of Pompeii with Roberta!

5.00Our guide Roberta made the city come to life with her knowledge and enthusiasm. This was the best tour of our trip. She even kept my teenagers interested! Although it was hot (make sure to bring ice water), and I tripped on a big rock at the start of the tour and scraped my leg (my fault, I wasn’t watching where I was going and streets are very uneven), it was still a magical experience, walking the same streets that people walked over 2000 years ago, and experiencing life in the city as if it was still alive. Roberta knew every detail and spoke in a way that was lively and kept us engaged. We did the morning tour which was great because we got seats on the train from Sorrento to Pompeii which is important because the ride is 45 minutes each way. We found our guide at the Sorrento station easily and felt very cared for the entire trip as she escorted us on the train and of course on the 2 hour tour. At the end of the tour we were allowed to stay longer at the site on our own, or head back on our own. I highly recommend this tour.
