Lot of walking, be prepared for it. Guide was incredibly knowledgeable and really made the trip an incredible experience.

Rafael was a fantastic guide! He kept us informed and entertained! It was really helpful to have a guide take us through Pompeii since it has so much to see. We appreciated going to Herculaneum first, as well. It gave us perspective on the size of Pompeii!

The tour itself was good, and our guide Diego was great. But the logistics could definitely be improved: We left Rome with an early and comfortable speed-train (7:40 in the morning) and arrived at Naples' station at 8:55. But the meeting with the guide was not until 9:45, so we started with a 50 minutes wait in the cold. Then we took a quick shuttle to Herculaneum (super interesting) which we visited for about 2 hours, back to the shuttle to Pompeii for lunch (50 minutes) and the visit of Pompeii itself (less than 2.5 hours, which is much too short for such a large site). I felt very rushed in Pompeii. We were told there was not enough time to see what we wanted to see (such as the Amphitheater) because we had to go back to the Naples' train station..... but then we arrived at the station about 1:30 before the train!!! Why could we not spend a bit more time in Pompeii and still reach the station with a ~30 minutes wait before the train to be well on-time? Overall this was still a good experience, but considering the significant cost, I expected less wait time at Naples' train station, and more coordination with the trains' schedules (morning and evening) so we could spend more time in Pompeii.

Very good tour of 2 amazing historical sites. Guide Rafael was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, clearly had a passion for the history and mythology. Did a great job of prioritising snapshots to give you an idea of life at the time as there was so much to see.

The tour was well organized, the guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We enjoyed our time very much. We missed the most famous attraction in Pompeii. The guide didn't takes there. I imagine it was because our tour group had a lot of children. Still a bummer. Could have given us time on our own to visit, for example.
