4.00The pick up in Sorrento went smoothly and the guide on the bus made the trip enjoyable and entertaining. The tour was a good overview of Pompeii itself and once again that guide was knowledgeable. The length and difficulty of the tour was just right for four mid 70's tourists.
Good intro to Pompeii

5.00We had a very good experience with this company. They were punctual, friendly and the bus was large and comfortable. There were 49 people on our bus. Our guide Louisa was very funny and knowledgeable and did a good job of bringing everything to life. We were originally booked with another company but they canceled on us the day before because they didn't have the minimum number of people required. Be careful who you book with.
Definitely worth a visit!

4.00The advert states ‘Skip the line…’, it’s actually the ticket line that you skip! You still have to queue to get in. The queue was very long but it did go quick. Our guide was called Vanessa and she was brilliant. Very knowledgeable, good sense of humour and she had a fabulous singing voice! You have a two hour guided tour around Pompeii which was the perfect amount of time to see what you needed to see. I would definitely recommend this tour, especially if you get Vanessa as your guide!
