I was on this tour with my family. Amedeo was my tour guide. He was super kind and friendly. He explained everything very well and thorough. He was honestly one of the best tour guides I’ve had. He answered all of my questions. It was very enjoyable and I learned a lot. It didn’t get boring at all and it was overall an amazing experience. I would recommend.

Absolutely fantastic tour. Pompeii had by far the most intact ruins we’ve seen and our guide, Maria, was very gracious and knowledgeable. She was able to take us to the best spots, since Pompeii is much larger than we had anticipated.

Excellent tour of the ruins of Pompeii. The guide, Mariagrazi, was very well-informed and accommodating, and made the tour very entertaining for us. The 3 hours flew by very quickly. There's a lot of walking involved, so wear comfortable shoes and clothes. And a good idea to get a water bottle as well.

Expert guide that walked us around providing a interesting “class” about life in Ancient Roman times. He showed depth of knowledge answering our (several) questions. Most importantly, he was fun and excited about the topics.

My family had a wonderful experience with Amadeo. His deep knowledge and unbridled enthusiasm for the rich history of Pompeii made the experience very special.

Amadeo was a fantastic tour guide who truly made our Pompeii experience incredible. Deeply knowledgeable, friendly, and very welcoming, he made our visit so memorable-- we cannot recommend him and this operator, Sandretti Tours, more highly! Thank you Amadeo.

The private tour was astonishingly well done, this was my first time visiting Pompeii and it couldn’t have been better the tour guide Amedeo. He showed us many different aspects of life before and after the eruption ultimately giving us valuable insight and knowledge. We learnt lots about the houses, shops, commercial business, how the environments have changed overtime (once a port close to the ruins), the markets and gathering places, that there was more to this city than marble including colours like red, yellow( easiest colours to make) and more rare ones like blue and green (some of which you can still see today as they have been preserved), the first hand painting in both the houses and the public gathering points, some of the bodies that were buried due to suffication, body damage or ash now of which covered in ash. This is just a small glimpse into everything that we were told. Amedeo defenitely made this tour both interesting and amusing which I can further confidently say suitable for all ages.

My first trip to Pompeii was so interesting and intriguing yet also fun because Amedeo our tour guide was very informative, insightful and fun. Amedeo took us around Pompeii taught the history and meaning of literally everything, he was insightful every detail of an ancient painting manifesting meanings also providing thoughts or glimpses into the caring world of Pompeii 2000 years ago. He showed my family things random leisure goers strolling through Pompeii people wouldn’t have thought about. The information was deeper than you could ever imagine. Overall the tour was incredible, fun, packed with information and most of all memorable in the greatest way possible. I highly recommend and praise Amedeo, and this tour.
