Traveler reviews
Great day trip from Rome!
Very informative walking tour of Herculaneum and Pompeii. The tour included train tickets for I’m Rome and a minibus ride from Naples. The company clearly communicated the logistics through email and telephone. The Tour guide, Michaelo was wonderful. He was very nice and very knowledgeable. His English is very good and he communicated very well. It was as a great day trip from Rome and definitely worth the time and money.
Fantastic experience!!!
Booked this tour to celebrate my last Sunday in Italy after living in Rome for 3 months. It was perfect! I was in awe with the beauty of the frescoes and the impressive nature of the archaeological sites. Rafael, my tour guide, was very kind and kept the tour at a nice, engaging pace with a couple of funny jokes here and there. The driver was responsible and drove well. The other tour members were lovely. Everything went by perfectly smoothly. Thank you for an unforgettable day!
Don’t miss Herculaneum!
Don’t miss Herculaneum! Pompeii and Herculaneum are a long day when it’s hot and lots of tourists so bring a parasol and lots of water. Our guide was great and knew Pompeii like an old resident. Which was great because he could take us to different areas with shorter lines. Herculaneum was amazing and better preserved. Including some skeletons if you want to see some dead people!
A step back in time......Superb!
Amadeus, our guide, was exceptional! His passion and wealth of knowledge made the day unforgettable. Both Pompeii and Herculaneum were amazing, made even better by Amadeus and his stories and jokes. The Pompeii site is huge, the tours takes you to the key sites. The transport was seamless and the lunch recommendation was delicious. Superb!
Great experience
