Half day Pompeii

5.00We enjoyed our trip and the guide was well educated in Pompeii. I’m glad we had a guide to understand the city. The 4 hour tour was the perfect time to spend in the city.
Small group trip to Pompei

5.00A visit to Pompei is a must. If you want to have a good experience go with a small group with an experienced guide. If you want to have a stressless trip use a tour company that provides transport and an onboard guide. To top off the experience and make it memorable a visit to a winery with lunch and wine tastings makes this a must do. Make your trip truly memorable and use this company.
Great time!

5.00I went with my husband as part of our honeymoon. It was one of the hottest days and there was just a fire at Vesuvius a few days prior so Rosa reached out for us to have our trip refunded and changed to this experience. It was wonderful. We thought our driver was excellent and the tour guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating of the heat. She kept us in the shade as much as possible and answered all of our questions. What a lovely experience.
Interesting and enjoyable day out

5.00Pompei was so interesting, our guide was very knowledgeable. They give you an ear piece and radio so you can still hear the guide even if you are dawdling a bit behind! There's lots to see, and it was a quick tour, you could spend days there if you wanted to see everything in detail, but 2 hours in 30 degrees heat was just about right. Followed by a traditional Italian lunch and wine tasting at a vineyard. In the foot of mt vesuvius. Air con transportation there and back. Was a great trio, good value, and nothing to fault 😊

5.00Our Pompeii experience was amazing. The guide was soo informative, personable and professional. It was really crowded and chaotic at the main gates the day we were there. We were grateful for the express skip the line entrance which gave us more time to enjoy the ruins. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and highly recommend. Five ⭐️

3.00Our tour guide for the pompei portion of this tour was very experienced and knowledgeable. I definitely would not have known my way around/what I was looking at if I’d gone to pompei without a guide. However, we only had less than 15 minutes of free time to explore the ruins (excluding the actual tour with the guide). There was FAR more to see in the city of Pompei and nobody in our tour group wanted to leave, but we were told (and I quote) “Do not stop on our way out, keep moving”. I think I could have stayed another 30min-1 hour at least. This is an expensive excursion and because of this it almost felt not worth it. However, lunch was lovely as was Vesuvio, so I would still do it again. Just wish it hadn’t have been so rushed.
Okay. A bit disappointed.

3.00Had been to Pompeii 20 years ago,but it rained the entire time. So, we finally made it back. The tour was very different in that there were things I wanted to see again, but the quide did not take us there, ie murals . 95% of this tour was outside. We only saw a few of he unfortunate souls who lost their lives, instead of the the many I remember. The quide was Italian & some of us felt she was hard to understand & catered more to the very few Italians that were in our group. E
Superb tour with great guides

5.00Fantastic guide in Paola throughout the day and excellent tour around Pompeii which was just the right length to keep everyone interested. My son left his sunglasses at a market stall. Paola went above and beyond to not only track them down but then send back to us in the U.K. What a superstar you are Paola!
