Traveler reviews
Vesuvius tour
Our tour to Vesuvius was great and enjoyable hotel pick up was on time and very handy 2 hours free time to climb up have a cup of coffee and glass of wine at the peak of Vesuvius and get back more than enough. If you want to do Vesuvius tour in half of the day and get on to something else after I will highly recommend this tour…
Disappointed
There was no guide with us, just a driver. No information at all from him. We could have just used a taxi to get to Mt Vesuvius really. Had to change vehicles on the way back too as some people were going onto a different destination.
History of Pompeii
We missed the mark on this one. We should have picked a different type of tour. We basically only booked the shuttle service. So we were left navigating getting Audioguide to assist with the tour. The audio guides we purchased/rented were not good. Be sure to get good equipment so that you can enjoy the experience and have the tools to help quide you through the site. There is so much to absorb in Pompeii.
We could have organised...
We could have organised this trip via public transportation at a lesser cost. Poor communication and little interaction from our “bus driver” throughout this excursion . Very disappointed in our outing.
It was ok but not great value
It was ok, just don't expect any commentary. Its mostly transport your paying for. It's overpriced for what you get
