Amazing day at Pompeii
My family and I had a great time on our tour of Pompeii with Marily. She is a great guide - very knowledgeable and personable. She showed us interesting highlights and shared a lot of great knowledge throughout the tour. It is clear that she is interested in the history of the area and her enthusiasm made the tour that much more enjoyable for us. I would highly recommend this personal tour to get the most out of a visit to Pompeii.

Daniella is a Passionate and Knowledgeable Guide
Our guide Daniella was wonderful! She was so passionate and knowledgeable about Pompeii. I could have listened to her all day. Daniella was also very helpful with assisting one of our party who had some mobility challenges. She was considerate and took our party to the most accessible parts of the city and found us multiple places to rest as needed. Our experience was truly delightful!

Pompeii all day with Romolo!
This tour with Romolo was truly incredible, and without a doubt, the absolute highlight of our time in Pompeii!
If you’re visiting Pompeii and have the chance to tour with him, take it. No hesitation.
Romolo was exceptional. His knowledge is deep and fascinating, but what really makes him stand out is how he brings everything to life. You’re not just walking through ruins, you’re stepping into stories, history, and moments that suddenly feel real and vivid.
His energy is contagious, and he has an incredible way with people, especially kids. Keeping children engaged in Pompeii is no easy task, yet he had them completely hooked the entire time. They were curious, excited, and fully immersed from start to finish.
Out of everything we experienced on this trip, this was the tour we’ll be talking about for years. It was engaging, memorable, and genuinely special.
I can’t recommend Romolo highly enough! If you want a Pompeii experience that’s meaningful, dynamic, and unforgettable, he’s your guide.

Great tour!
We had a really fantastic tour of Pompei. Our guide was so knowledgeable and engaging and tailored the tour for the children in the group. She held the attention of 3 children of different ages for 2 hours. Although the tour was focused on the children, the adults found it fascinating and learnt a huge amount. Our guide also took account of where other groups were and adapted the route so we were able to see the maximum amount in the time available. She also took time to ask what each family wanted to do after the tour ended and gave advice on other parts of Pompei to see and which routes to take. Overall, a fantastic tour, well worth the money, and helped us get the most out of our visit. Thank you!

Best decision
It was the beast decision. Pompeii are so huge that we would be lost wondering around missing grrat stories about life of Pompeii people. Our guide was energetic and to the point, yet - very concious of kids safety and tempo of the group. We saw many other tours with so many people that guide had to scream for them to hear. Our group was just enough people that we all can relax and enjoy. Very grateful for the agency and oir tour guide 😊

Exceptional experience for our family
Our tour guide Lello was exceptional. He brought Pompei to life for my 8 and 10 year old children and my husband and I leant so much to. I cannot recommend this tour enough.
My son finds it hard to focus for long periods of time - Lello understood this without us telling him and delivered the tour in a way which engaged him.

Paolo was very...
Paolo was very experienced in showing us around vast Pompeii. He guided us through various parts of the preserved city highlighting how the community once lived. 2 hours was definitely not enough time to take in this experience. The tour is slightly up hill and on rocky terrain so prepare appropriately.

Pompeii and Amazing View from Vesuvius
Both of my guides were excellent for Pompeii and Vesuvius. They were knowledgeable and had great descriptions and explanations of the ruins and their society. Simona was our guide up to Vesuvius summit, she was wonderful and encouraging to those of us that struggled a little to make the climb. I did it! If I can do it almost anyone can. It was an amazing experience and view. I recommend this tour for sure!

Great day!!
What a fun day- our driver Raffaele was knowledgeable about the area, friendly, and engaging. We also opted for a private tour of Pompeii with a tour guide Andrew. He brought the history to life and was a great storyteller. We had a great experience and would highly recommend this tour!

Great 2hr tour of Pompei ruins!
My husband and I had a wonderful time learning some history, science, and archeology from our tour guide. He was very open to and knowledgeable about the questions we had. We would have loved to explore the whole space with our guide but when our tour was finished, he helped send us in the direction we were interested in continuing to explore. I would highly recommend!

Amazing tour
Tour was amazing.
Sonia met us on time and was very attentive to the group thoughout.
Extremely knowledgeable about the site and made the whole tour interesting and easy to follow.
Would definitely recommend both Sonia and Viator to friends and family.

Lello was the best guide!
The tour was amazing. Lello as a guide was perfect. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and interesting. He was like the mayor of Pompeii. Having the perspective from an archeologist made the people of Pompeii come to life. If you can ask for him, do it!
