Traveler reviews
A great tour experience at Pompeii
This was my first time booking a guided tour and it is a must for Pompeii. The knowledge and fun that Sergio bought to the tour made it a much better experience than wandering around just looking. The earphone system worked really well and my husband who is hard of hearing could hear everything perfectly. I would highly recommend booking through this company.
Beautiful
Camillo Sorrentino, truly exceptional guide, prepared, helpful and meticulous in explanations. Polite. Highly recommended
Day in Pompeii
We did this tour my wife and I to visit Pompeii that we had never seen, we had a great good organization of the staff, the guide available, nice and very prepared. We recommend the experience
Great Experience
Mario Celebtano was our tour guide and he did a fantastic job! He was passionate about the information he was sharing and provided a lot of thoughtful insight.
Educational and informal
Good tour with a very nice guide (Nicoletta) who knew how to entertain and inform us. The 2 hours will be filled in fine and then enough time to walk around yourself.
