Pompeii & Vesuvius Guided Tour

I booked with Askos Tours and the guide Mario was the best. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. Thank you for the great experience when exploring Mt. Vesuvius and Pompeii for the first time.

We were delighted with our guide Mario who was professional, cultured, witty and attentive to everyone in the group. Driver Sergio drove safely and carefully. Expert guidance in Pompeii by archaeologists gave us a phenomenal experience of the site.

What an incredible day and experience. From the start - Mario was welcoming. He is fantastic at what he does and he very passionate about it. He and Luigi (our driver) were great and made the start of our day/tour get off on the right foot. Mario was very funny and very knowledgeable. Luigi bless him was a man of few words but those fresh berries he gave us that he picked whilst we climbed Vesuvius were very welcome. Although we was sad to wave goodbye to Mario when we reached Pompeii as he went to start another Vesuvius climb, Antonio took over and was equally as great. He was extremely knowledgeable about Pompeii and gave us a real insight to life in Pompeii. He knew where to go and where all the right places to take us. We even asked him to see certain places and he made the tour all about us as a group. All in all - fantastic day. Lots and steps but absolutely worth it. Thank you Mario, Luigi and Antonio. It wouldn’t be the same day with you guys.

Wow! If you’re visiting Naples this is a must-do experience. The pick up was incredibly easy and the staff were outstanding! Vesuvius: Mario (our fabulous tour-guide) and Luigi (our expert driver) did an amazing job of getting us to and from Vesuvius safely. Mario’s knowledge of the site was incredible and he answered all our questions with ease. We feel so privileged to be able to say we climbed Vesuvius! Pompeii: Once again, Luigi showed us his expert driving skills and got us to and from Pompeii with no problems. Our Pompeii tour guide, Antonio, was incredible! Having grown up on and around the site, Antonio was able to show us many of the highlights (within the time frame) whilst also catering to everyone’s individual interests. I cannot thank Antonio enough for showing us around Pompeii. I have dreamt of visiting this site since I was a little girl and he truly made the experience so special. Overall, this was an incredible day out that was well worth the money! Thank you so much, Mario, Luigi and Antonio.

As a solo traveller this was a great package as it included transportation and amazing tours of both Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii. It was a nice size group and we got a break between both activities to get some lunch. Mario was amazing, he knew lots about Vesuvius and was super friendly. He was with us the entire time, from pick up to drop off. Teresa was also amazing, her knowledge of Pompeii was amazing and super cool to hear about. She was so lovely and kind. Both guides had amazing personalities. 100% recommend if solo travelling or in a group.
