Traveler reviews
Longer than desired
The duration was advertised as 6 hours but it lasted nearly 9 hours. We were given 1.5 hours of free time in Sorrento, which felt like far too much. We walked a few blocks to the coastline, admired it and took some photos, and walked back. We found a restaurant and ordered coffees just to kill time. If you don't mind extremely crowded sidewalks and you like shopping, Sorrento is probably more enjoyable for you. "Visit a Limoncello distillery" = We walked through the distillery where no equipment was being operated, and then entered a large gift shop. They were giving free samples, which was effective because we ended up buying a bottle. When we arrived in Pompeii, we did a lot of standing around and waiting. We had to swap a few people from our group with a few from another group, because ships were leaving at different times. We were told to "explore" before the tour, but there wasn't much in that area besides souvenir shops and tourist-focused food vendors. We would've rather spent that extra time exploring the ruins. When we did finally start that tour, it was fantastic. Highly recommend! Overall, we felt like there was too much wasted time and we wish we would've selected a tour that only included Pompeii.
A full day of Sorrento and Pompeii!
There is a lot of driving and traffic included in this tour, but you get to spend quality time in Sorrento and plenty of time in Pompeii. Pompeii is huge and you won’t get to see all of it, but you get a great overview. The lunch included was not that great, but it keeps you together with your group for the tour to begin.
This was an excellent...
This was an excellent day. Our tour with World Tours was amazing. Our guide Luca was excellent, great communication, patient with us and professional. He provided an awesome guide, Anna for our tour of Pompeii.. We would highly recommend World Tours when visiting Salerno, Pompeii and Sorrento Italy. They are the best!!!
10/10 highly recommend
We had the best day visiting sorrento and Pompeii with our guide Raffi. Everything was seamless and not too rushed. It was so beautiful and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting a mix of history and shopping in a cute town by the sea with wonderful views
Great driver made a great experience
Giuseppe Romano was our driver and he gave us a great experience. Very informative. Since we had a private tour he took us to a great place for pizza among the vineyards.
