Traveler reviews
Good day out
Generally a good day out, Nadia our tour manager was excellent as was driver Bruno, the tour guide Mario was also excellent and gave us a good insight into life in Pompeii
Dependable and enjoyable hosts
Our hosts for the Pompeii and Herculaneum tour were excellent. Castro's driving was a relief, after having taken taxis in Naples. He and Claudia were where they said they would be each time. Claudia was fun to talk with and we felt well taken care of.
Highly recommend. Great tour
Nina and the team were awesome. Easy pickup/ drop off. Comfy van with plenty of room. Guides were super entertaining with lots of knowledge. Great value for money. Can’t thank them enough for the day. Well done.
Great great tour with Emiliano, Pascuale and Marco!
We had a wonderful experience on the Pompeii and Valley of Hell tour. Emiliano was a great guide, very attentive, patient, and always making sure everyone was okay. He took us to great spots and shared lots of interesting pieces of history and fun facts throughout the tour. Our driver, Pascuale, was also excellent. We felt very safe with him, and he was always punctual and professional. Marco, our guide for the Valley of Hell trail, was incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about volcanoes, their history, and formation. We learned so much from him. We highly recommend these tours!
Congratulations and recognition
They picked us up at the scheduled time, both the driver and the guide, Titi, were very kind, gentle, and attentive. We are grateful to the guide Bruno (Pompeya) and Patricia (Herculano). Titi was very concerned that we were comfortable and enjoyed the tour, and we appreciate that 1000% My sister and I are eternally grateful. Sincerely Gloria Mardones Guerrero Aurora Mardones Guerrero
