Amazing from start to finish! Bus pick up in Amalfi was on time and it was a nice drive. The tour guide was knowledgeable, funny, and gave us a great experience at Pompeii. We are glad we chose to do this over a self guided tour.

A great day out in Pompeii with a wonderful tour guide.

David_C, Jun 2025
The day trip to Pompeii was wonderful. An easy pickup in Maiori then a scenic drive to Pompeii. Pompeii is much much larger than I ever imagined and it was made better by a great tour guide explaining everything along the way. Pompeii was extremely busy but doing this 'skip the line' tour made it very quick and easy. A truly memorable day.

Bad company

Ingrid_F, May 2025
This company is untrustworthy. Spend your money elsewhere They say one thing then do another. Very unsatisfied customer

Not what we expected.

John_G, Sep 2024
The tour of Pompeii was nice but it felt very rushed. There were multiple points where the tour guide's connection was lost to all of the earpieces but she continued the tour regardless. Afterwards, she walked us to a restaurant and gave us 45 minutes to eat. We weren't able to stop at the giftshop to buy anything. The restaurant took 35 minutes to bring the food out. The roads in Amalfi are very windy so bring Dramamine!

Worth going to Pompeii

Diane_M, Sep 2024
Our guide was very knowledgeable. Good bus ride tho drop off not the same as pick up. Prepare to travel. The headsets for audio were not working well. The whole group had trouble hearing the explanations of the site

Exceeded my expectations!

Linda_D, Sep 2024
Our guide was very knowledgeable and also patient to answer questions from the group. I had done a Pompeii tour a few years ago and she was so much better. Everything was on time and to schedule. Restaurant was excellent as well

Real real good

MITCH_M, Sep 2024
Real real good. Alessandra was an amazing guide! Pompeii is beautiful. The restaurant they recommended was delicious

Wonderful day with excellent guide

Oleksandra_S, Aug 2024
We had the best day in Pompei with our guide Alessandra. She was very friendly and knowledgeable and gave us lots of information during the bus ride and on the archeological site. We learned so much and couldn't be happier we booked the trip. Well-organized tour. Thank you!

Wonderful tour

Stephanie_M, Jul 2024
Alessandra was an excellent tour guide. Extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. The site is an amazing account of history and a glimpse into 79AD that is only possible with the information providdd by a guide such as Alessandra. Just be cautious if you do this during July or August. So hot. It was 102 the day we were there 😰

POMPEII Fun and facts with Allesandra

serafina_h, Jul 2024
Loved this tour Allesandra our guide was so great she led the group well providing lots of historical facts and information and some very fun facts and hidden symbols of Pompeii. Shout out to our bus driver Claudio he was excellent and ver skilled driving on the very windy Amalfi coastal road. All in all a great day highly reccommend this guide and tour.

Coolest day ever

Stephanie_P, Jul 2024
My husband and I absolutely loved our trip to Pompeii. Alessandra was an incredible guide and knew everything there was to know about the area. We learned so much and couldn’t be happier we booked the trip

Fantastic day with excellent guide

Kristin_S, Jun 2024
We had the best day in Pompei with our guide Alessandra (and not to forget the calm driver Claudio!) She was very sweet and gave us lots of information during the bus ride and of course on the archeological site. Best guide ever!!!! Pick up in Amalfi was prompt and on time. Don’t hesitate to book one of these tours, you won’t regnet it!

Pompeii tour from Atrani

Sharon_M, May 2024
Had a wonderful tour. Transportation to and from the site was fantastic and Lucia was an incredible guide. Thank you!

Wonderful Pompeii Tour

Rachel_K, Oct 2023
Wonderful tour from Amalfi! Comfortable bus ride to Pompeii, great informational tour, and delicious lunch. We went with children and they enjoyed it as well. Highly recommend!

Definitely worth the trip.

Charmian_C, Sep 2023
Our guide was extremely welcoming, informative and friendly. Sharing lots of stories and information about Pompei keeping us thoroughly engaged. Little inclusions such timings of activities, toilet breaks, if we get separated from the group given the expansive location etc were all very helpful. This day trip offers great value and we would definitely recommend to others.

Pompeii from Amalfi

Hans_A, Sep 2023
Well organised tour. Pick up was easy and right on time. Our guide was affable and knowledgeable and navigated us through the vast exhibits of the city of Pompeii. Our bus driver managed to keep us safe on the winding narrow roads and we were very comfortable in our journey.

Fantastic! Highly recommend!

Emma_H, Aug 2023
Our tour guide Alessandra was fantastic, she was very knowledgeable and has been doing tours for around 30 years. She gave us a history of Pompeii and interesting facts on the way to Pompeii, which was unexpected, but great! Our bus driver Claudio was a great driver and made us feel safe. They arrived on time for pick up. Drop off was delayed due to bad Amalfi traffic, can't be helped. This is something to take into account, no matter where you are travelling in Amalfi. We skipped the line into the Pompeii archaeological site. The tour guide had an arrangement with a shop outside to use toilets for free, which was nice. She took us to a lot of the major sites and allowed time for photos. We were slightly delayed, due to a line up to get into one of the baths, as it was the only one open that day. We also passed through the artifact museum at the end, which was very interesting! We had lunch at the place which was recommended by the tour company, the food was tasty and good value for money. They catered for me being gluten and dairy free. All in all, it was a fantastic tour, it was nice being picked up from Amalfi, worth the money compared to catching public transport! Alessandra was a wonderful tour guide. Easy to understand and our ear phones worked well. Thank you!!

Pompeii the Great

Raymond_A, May 2023
Excellent tour guide. Driver was great. Restaurant after the tour was also very good. No complaints and I would recommend this tour.

Tour was good; however...

Akshay_M, May 2023
Tour was good; however the place the tour guide took us for food was an absolute tourist trap. Spoiled the entire moment of the Pompeii tour.

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Dear Clients, thank you very much. We are pleased you enjoyed the included services - tour guide, bus and priority tickets. We are sorry you did not enjoy the restaurant. Please note this service is not included in the tour and the restaurant is a pure suggestion. In fact, you are completely free to have lunch where you prefer around the ruins, just respecting the timing. please note around ruins restaurants are all medium level with quick service.

Excellent tour

Alison_S, May 2023
Tour leader was very informative & kept us moving & seeing so much of Pompeii. Very knowledgeable & informative & respectful of other groups moving around. Lunch after the tour was delicious.

My history class came to life after all these years!

SHERRY_M, May 2023
The history is amazing-the years of work to be able to share this ancient city with the modern world is astounding….Thank you Lucia for a memorable trip as well as your fabulous extremely competent bus driver!

Great tour but shorter than advertised

thomaslearning, Sep 2022
This was an extremely interesting trip to Pompeii. Allesandra, our guide, was excellent. Very organized, knowledgeable, and fun! Claudio, our driver, was very good as well. We spent two hours in Pompeii and saw highlights. I gave this tour a lower score because the description said we would be gone until 6 pm, making me assume we would have much more time to explore Pompeii. In actuality, we got back to Amalfi around 2:30 pm. and had more limited time at Pompeii. If I had known this, I would have combined the tour with a visit to Mt Vesuvius.

Great experience!

Eleni_P, Jun 2022
A unique historical place, a must visit in the area. Allesandra, our guide, was excellent, very well informed, with lot of information to share and a great sense of Gounod. Claudio was an exceptional driver in a very difficult road. Everything on time and well organised.
