Itinerary
Upon arrival in Naples, proceed towards the Starhotels Terminus, located in Piazza Giuseppe Garibaldi, just across the street from Naples Central Station. Here you will meet your local guide and the Askos Tours driver who will accompany the group to the archaeological sites.
Pass by: You will access the archaeological site of Pompeii through the Porta Marina entrance, one of the most significant gateways to the ancient city. Here your guided tour will begin, led by a licensed archaeologist from Askos Tours who will introduce you to the history, urban layout, and daily life of Pompeii before the eruption of 79 AD.
Located along the Via dell’Abbondanza, the Insula of the Chaste Lovers preserves remarkable frescoes depicting intimate moments of daily life, including the famous affectionate couple. This stop offers a brief yet vivid glimpse into the elegance and domestic atmosphere of ancient Pompeian homes.

Traveler reviews
Very satisfied
It’s an all day experience at both Herculaneum and Pompeii but well worth it our tour guide Alfredo was fantastic and very informative.
Educational and informative
Michele L. Has studied Pompeii and Herculaneum and was an incredible, knowledgeable tour guide. He showed us the highlights of each place and really made it a wonderful experience. I highly recommend him and Askos Tours.
Fascinating tour
Our guide was Rafaello. He was friendly and professional and obviously is very knowledgeable about the sites and loves his work. We learned all about Herculaneum and Pompeii. It is hot with minimal shade, especially in Pompeii. I recommend sunscreen and a hat or umbrella. And bring a water bottle. In Pompeii at least you can refill in many places on the tour from the fountains. The water is safe and very good and cold. I highly recommend this tour. The only negative is that we could have used more time to eat and look at shops. There is a 50 minute lunch which was just long enough to eat and two 15 minute free times. I feel an extra 30 minutes in each place would have been helpful and preferred.
Great Pompeii 3 hour tour
We did the 3hour tour of Pompeii with Sara Incaruato. We really enjoyed Sara’s guidance and commentary. She really brought to life the experience. Highly recommend.
Fascinating and informative tour
Our tour was well organized and convenient. Our guide Gennaro was very knowledgeable and informative. We toured Ercolano first and took a break for lunch and then traveled to Pompeii. Both sites were fascinating and we enjoyed the insights provided by our guide.
