Good communication and service

This was a guided tour for a private school of 26 people. Naples Bay was present before, during and after the activity. Their communication was clear. The tour guide they sent us was very knowledgeable and friendly and we had a lovely time.

Bad experience when visiting Pompeii

I went to Italy with my family and when I visited Naples, I booked with this company (which I'm beginning to think is a fake) a visit to Pompeii, with private transport, entrance to the ruins and a guided walking tour of part of the city, all included, for 300 euros. The transport was in a van in poor condition, with no air conditioning (with very high air temperatures). We couldn't get into the ruins because there were no vouchers. We, the van driver and the reception staff at the ruins spent about an hour calling the "fake" company and there was never a reply. The guided tour took about 15 minutes and we obviously hardly left the same place. We wrote to ask for the costs to be refunded and to this day we still haven't received them. So if you're thinking of using this "fake" company, you'd better choose another one, because they're liars and crooks, ripping people off.
