Pompei was great everything else lackluster

Narita_B, Jul 2025

The overall experience was great. There were just a few things that could have been better in my personal opinion. The tour said start time 8am, we were there 10 min early and had to wait for the remaining passengers who were late. There should be a cut of time so the tour can get started on time. After we got on the bus we then waited another 15min for more people to get on. We made one stop to pick up more people so another 15 min or so, this was not mentioned in the listing that there would be multiple stops to get people. Then we were on our way to Pompei, the young lady that was our guide on the bus , talked way too fast and we couldn’t understand her when she was explaining things. She then switched to another language and repeated everything she said again. That was also not mentioned in the listing, it said whichever language more then half the passengers where that’s what it was. So we get to Pompei and get switched to a different tour guide. He was excellent, great sense of humor and very knowledgeable. The actual tour part was great, everything else was a little disappointing. Over all the whole tour from picking us up to dropping us off was almost 5hrs. The listing says 3hrs. Just an fyi if anyone is looking to book this tour.

Dear Narita, thank you for taking the time to write this review. We appreciate your feedback. Our tours are offered in multiple languages; we ask passengers for their preferred language to ensure they have a multilingual tour leader to assist them. Therefore, the onboard commentary, being an auxiliary service, may be available in multiple languages. The tour guide inside the Pompeii ruins, however, is dedicated to a single language group, as this is the core of the service offered. Unfortunately, we cannot provide detailed travel times to/from Naples, as they are subject to current traffic conditions and are unpredictable. Therefore, we ask our cruise ship guests for their embarkation/disembarkation times to best assist them and avoid inconvenience. We assure you that we will make every effort to communicate these details better in the future, and we appreciate your feedback.

Well worth paying for a guided tour!

We had an excellent guide, Valentina was knowledgeable and helpful, she used humour and really brought to life what we saw. I saw lots of people walking around without a guide, but I have to say that the crowds were phenomenal, so hiring a guide was most useful because Valentina knew exactly where to go and how to avoid the crowds where possible. This made a massive difference as the site is enormous. Would wholeheartedly recommend.

Excellent tour.

Pompii Wow!

Suzanne_S, Oct 2024

The beautiful sites and our lovely guide ❤️. Our guide Kristine was excellent in explaining what was important and worth seeing at Pompeii. She was dedicated in making sure we understood the importance of this beautiful site. We were all impressed with her knowledge and how she made sure we were able to take the best photos. Ones of importance and meaning. She is one of the best guides ever!

Our tour guide, Jasmine, was super good. Very informative and really enhanced our whole experience. She even found us before the tour even though we weren’t on her original list. She overcame ever issue with a smile and great attitude. Highly, highly recommend.
