5.00The enthusiasm of our guide Vanessa, brought the ruined Pompei to life. She has a lot of knowledge and insight about the time of the time and knows how to convey it with great enthusiasm and anecdotes, so that we imagined ourselves in that time.
Fabio is great!

5.00We had Fabio for our guide and felt lucky we got him for a 2 hour private tour. He answered our questions and showed us aspects of life in Pompeii like sliding door food stalls, baths, bakery, and much more. If you want he will leave you at Villa dei Misteri if you purchase the suburban villa option. For that we wished we had had an audio guide. But looking at it was such a beautiful experience!
Luciano was absolutely fantastic, professional and knowledgeable in all aspects of the tour of Pompeii.

5.00Luciano was personal, knowledgeable and interactive and gave us insights to Pompeii we wouldn't have gotten on our own.
Pompeii is too fascinating to catch in 2 hours.

5.00Eugenia was fun to listen to. His British Italian pronunciations were adorable. Knowledgeable. Polite to other groups. We should have booked an earlier tour so we could have walked around longer and visited the gift shop.
Great private tour!

5.00Alessandro took our group of 4 on a 2-hour tour of the main sights of Pompeii. He met us at the train station and had already purchased our tickets, so arrival and entrance were very easy. He clearly knows so much about the subject and explained everything clearly (in English) and with such enthusiasm. It definitely enhanced the experience of visiting this amazing place for us and so would highly recommend this informative and well planned tour.
Fabulous tour

5.00Wonderful tour. 2 hours. Saw a lot. Martina was fun and very efficient. Asked questions of us what we would think of various brothel-type Pompei sections to see whether or not would be appropriate for our young kids. She also adjusted the tour to their pace and interests. Thank you!
