Mount Vesuvius Tour
The Mount Vesuvius visit was expertly led by, Mario, from Askos Tours. Mario's knowledge of the regions volcanos and the history and scale of the eruption that covered Pompei was very interesting. Spectacular views as you walk up the path and luckily we saw puffs of steam from inside the crater.
A very enjoyable afternoon and recommended.

Don’t sleep on this experience!
Our guide, Liliana, was extremely knowledgeable about Pompei and made she we had the best experience. The drivers to the winery were prompt and efficient and the winery was incredible. All of the people were friendly and the wine and food was exceptional. Highly recommend this experience.

Fascinating Day In Pompeii
We had a wonderful tour with Antoinetta. She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging, making the experience both enjoyable and informative. Despite the intense heat, we thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Just be aware that there’s very little shade along the route, so it’s a good idea to bring plenty of water and a handheld fan if you have one. Highly recommended!

Nice tour!
Great tour, Lilly did a wonderful job recreating the life a times of people of Herculaneum and Pompeii. It was hot, so bring your auto fans and umbrellas for shade. It was also very convenient to have transportation included in the tours for comfort and ease.

Perfect way to get to and see Pompeii off of a cruise
Everything was perfect. The coordinator was easy to find right outside of the port. The bus ride was comfortable and only 30 minutes. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and moved at a comfortable pace. Pompeii speaks for itself. Absolutely worth doing and the best part is they do all of the legwork getting the tickets.

3 hr Pompeii
Pompeii is extremely large, you see only a small portion of it on tours. Our guide was very knowledgeable and great! Wear comfortable shoes, very uneven. Bring water bottle. What an amazing experience! Villa de Misteri is the newest find with lots of color and detail. Worth looking at.

Best Tour Guide in all Pompeii
Everyone agreed this was the highlight of our trip. Our guide Lello was absolutely incredible to say the least. It ended up just being our little group of four in his group so we got a private tour of Pompeii. He was so knowledgeable but his personality was what made the tour exceptional. He took us around and we got to see a lot in our time there. I would definitely request him and this tour!

Tony was amazing! He...
Tony was amazing! He picked us up directly from our hotel and dropped us off there again. He was so knowledgeable on the ride to the separate locations and was an excellent tour guide once there. He answered all and any questions we had ranging from Pompeii to generalized Italy questions. He also helped us get tickets for my Vesuvius when I was unable to on the website. If you pick this tour it will be so informative, fun, and overall a great way to spend the day touring 2000 years ago! Definitely will be back and using him again for other tours!

A great visit to the past
Our guide, Luciana, helped make our day at Pompei one to remember. She was fun, extremely knowledgeable (I asked lots of questions, as a history buff, and she answered them all), and very helpful. She really made the past come alive in interesting and amusing (and even touching) ways. I highly highly recommend a private tour with Eliana's team - while not the cheapest option it's far superior to either doing it on your own or being in a big or even semi-private group. Also Eliana was very helpful in getting us set up, suggesting the best time to go to the site to avoid crowds and day heat (it gets HOT in the summer). 5 stars and would visit the past again with this team.

Book it! It was one of the highlights of our holiday!
We all thoroughly enjoyed our vineyard tour, tasting and lunch. It started with a warm welcome and then a private tour for our group of 6 around the vineyard in a golf buggy. It's a beautiful place with its own ruins, a stables, a hotel, a small 'zoo' and a pretty outdoor seated area for lunch and tasting. We were initially given a glass of spumanti, which was lovely, and then taken to our table. Our group were sat on our own table and had our own sommelier. She was lovely and really funny. We were given a glass of white, a rose and two reds alongside our lunch, which was also great. We bought another bottle to share as well, although we probably didn't need it! After a long morning exploring Pompeii this was a perfect way to spend the afternoon and one of the highlights of our holiday. It's also very close to the main Pompeii train station - we walked from the park and then got a taxi back.

Engaging, knowledgeable, fun and interesting!
Our tour guide, Elisa, was amazing! From the moment we walked through the gates she told us what we could see with a very engaging mix of humour and knowledge. She took us to all the best spots and told us many of the stories behind the ruins and had answers to any questions our group had! There was points within the tour where she let us go and wander for 5/10 minutes in places where there was a lot to explore but most of the tour was in our group of 11 which I think was a perfect size after seeing some other tours whilst we were there in huge groups. Thank you for making exploring Pompeii so enjoyable and bringing the history to life!

Pompeii is so expansive...
Pompeii is so expansive so this tour was a great way to see a good portion of the site with highlights. Our tour guide was well versed on Pompeii knowledge and was able to provide excellent history and stories in an engaging way. We spent a couple hours after the tour continuing to explore the site. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to understand more about Pompeii!
