What are people saying about Pompeii

Book the private tour!
This private tour was an absolute standout highlight of our trip. Alona was our private tour guide and we felt so privileged to have her leading the way. Not only was Alona deeply educated and knowledgeable about all aspects of Pompeii, she was also very personable, warm, and easily adapted the tour to the topics that specifically piqued our interest.
The tour was brim full of so many fascinating details, I learned far more than I expected to. I found myself having a very emotional reaction to the entire experience, and even cried a few times and embarrassed my teenage daughter! Haha
It is 1000% worth booking the private tour rather than a “small” group tour. Alona was wonderful at steering us away from the and made every bit of our experience more intimate so that we could fully absorb what we were learning.
Pompeii is an enormous archeological site, impossible to cover everything in one visit. I am already planning my next visit and can’t wait to return!
Enjoy!!

Paolo was very...
Paolo was very knowledgeable and he kept us moving along at a great pace.
It was extremely hot the day we did our tour (July 19, 2026). He was mindful of trying to get us situated in as many shady spots as he could while he shared his information and interesting tidbits.
If you desire to see the ruins, I would recommend doing so with a guide, and Paolo would be a great choice.

Our tour guide Elisabetta...
Our tour guide Elisabetta did an amazing job leading us around the Pompeii ruins. She gave us lots of information in the amount of time we had to tour the ruins and gave her insight as an archaeologist. She was very kind and answered any questions we had about Pompeii and the city of Naples. I would recommend booking this if you are interested in the history of Naples as well as the Pompeii ruins.

Italo made our Pompeii tour amazing! 🔥
If you're touring Pompeii, ask for Italo. His passion for the place was obvious from the start, and it made the whole tour so much fun. By the end, we could actually identify the different types of buildings ourselves, which felt awesome.
We never once felt rushed. It honestly felt like a good friend was showing us around, not just a guide reciting facts. Can't recommend Italo enough!

Take this tour
It is a long day but very well worth it. Small vans (NOT giant tour busses). They fed us breakfast and lunch. We enven stopped for lemon ices along the coast. The tour of the ruins/excavation was outstanding. Pompeii is fantastic of course, and the lunch was everything you could want of Sorrento.

Awesome Tour with Amedeo!!!
This was an amazing tour with Eliana Sandretti tours! Amedeo was so informative about the city, culture and history. There is no other way to see Pompeii without a private tour and especially with the expertise of an archaeological! Amedeo was accommodating and answered all our questions. You can feel his passion for the city through his explanations and detail. Amazing and unforgettable experience!

We loved our tour of Pompeii! Our guide was amazing and it was obvious that she brought many years of experience to the tour. She has amazing insights into the daily life of the inhabitants and showed us so many little details we would have never seen on our own. Thank you!

Beautiful Pompeii
A guided tour through Pompeii is crucial!! Our train was very delayed getting to Pompeii and we missed our scheduled tour. Our guide graciously got us into a later tour. We appreciated the flexibility and highly recommend Viator to all our friends. Pompeii was awesome - thank you!!

Fascinating history and amazing views
The tour was excellent - Tonia (Tonya) did an amazing job explaining the ruins, the history, and ancient homes. As for the hike up Mt Vesuvius, yes there was some effort to walk up (the bus takes you around half way up), but Mario made the trip fun and exciting explaining things along the way to give us a few much needed breaks. The views near the top were just unreal!!

Yes! Definitely worth it!
Awesome!! Paulo... very punctual... very knowledgeable... great driver. He got us to Pompeii where Andrew took us on a GREAT tour of Pompeii. Took us to places nobody else was and very knowledgeable of the city! Highly recommend! Paulo then took us to the almalfi coast. Had a couple times to get out and get a drink and enjoy the views. Again..... Great and highly recommend!

Visiting Pompeii was an unforgettable experience. Walking through the ancient ruins felt like stepping back in time, and it was incredible to see how much of the city is still preserved. Every street, building, and detail told a story, and it really made history feel real in a way books can’t capture.

We went to Pompei two weeks ago and had a wonderful time. Our tour guide was very knowledgable he helped us find the best spots for taking pictures and made sure that we saw all the best of Pompeii. He made recommendations of other things to see when the tour was over and encouraged us to explore on our own. Our guide was the best and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone else coming to Pompeii.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Pompeii is one of Italy’s most popular attractions, and the well-preserved buildings and roads of the city can give you a greater understanding of ancient Rome. Don’t miss out while in Italy—there are Pompeii day trips you can take from Naples or Rome, so you have a bit of flexibility with your itinerary. Some day-trip options pair Pompeii with another destination, such as the Amalfi Coast or the island of Capri, and some include an expert guide to help you make sense of the site's history.
