5.00Very good. The guide and the driver were very efficient and nice. The bus too. The places we visit were very nice and well organized since we were limited in the time.
Wonderful trip to Sorrento and Pompeii.

5.00Everything was well orchestrated and explained to us. The guides were super friendly and accommodating. The tours were seamless with no issues. My husband and I and the other couple we were with thoroughly enjoyed it all. The blue Grotto was an adventure and the tour of Pompeii was so educational. Thank you.
Good day trip

5.00This experience was amazing. The guide was wonderful, supportive, and very friendly. Pompeii was breathtaking. We did not do a guide for Pompeii, but it was an amazing experience. Sorrento is beautiful as well! Couldn’t be happier with this experience! Definitely book it!
Great tour (as long as no one from Arizona is there)

5.00We did this tour in February 2025 (I am late to reviewing). Our guide was lovely and had a wealth of knowledge about Pompeii. However I wish we could review the other people in our group… Our guide (I’m so sorry I do not recall his name) had to continuously tell people to not touch or lean on the walls of the ancient ruins…. He also has to repeat information multiple times because they were not paying attention and could not grasp the idea that the plaster casts were indeed CASTS and not bodies… Members of the group then proceeded to complain that he is moving to fast through the tour. I wish we could have had more time and learned more but that wasn’t our guides fault.
Brilliant day all round

5.00Had Enrico as guide and he was informative friendly and very knowledgeable. We were also lucky to have had Sasha for the Pompeii tour. He was excellent as well. Long day but well worth it.

5.00Started off with a conked out bus but they made up for it with an excellent croissant and nice tea&coffee. Excellent views before stopping for limoncello shots than lunch in sorrento . Once lunch was finished we were off to Pompeii with beautiful views on the way there, the guided tour is a must -very knowledgeable and an excellent experience. I would highly recommend this side day trip as I only put in 7k steps and was a good break on the knees. &feet,our guide was very kind&helpful!!!
