Amazing tour, learnt so much

Best tour we have ever been on. So knowledgeable, entertaining, and just delightful. We attended with our two teenage daughters and they loved it.

Great Tour of Pompeii - Highly Recommend

We stopped to visit Pompeii on our way from Rome to Praiano. It was sunny and hot for last September. Our guide was excellent and our group was small - three couples. Our guide navigated us through crowded areas and explained a lot of features. We stayed three hours because we had a driver waiting, but we could have easily spent a few more there exploring - so interesting. Having a small group and a great guide makes the difference.
