Outstanding Tour with Tony in Naples & Herculaneum

Patrick_L, Sep 2025

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Tour with Tony in Naples & Herculaneum Our experience with Tony as our guide was nothing short of exceptional. From the very beginning, he brought the history of Naples and Herculaneum to life with his incredible knowledge, enthusiasm, and storytelling. He didn’t just share facts—he painted vivid pictures of ancient life, culture, and architecture that made us feel truly immersed in the history. Tony has a wonderful balance of professionalism and warmth. He took the time to answer every question with patience and depth, while also adding humor and personal touches that made the entire day enjoyable and memorable. His passion for the history of the region is contagious—you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. What stood out most was Tony’s ability to tailor the experience to our group. He made sure we didn’t feel rushed, highlighted hidden details we never would have noticed on our own, and guided us through the ruins in a way that made them meaningful, not just visually impressive. If you are planning a visit to Naples, Herculaneum, or the surrounding area, I cannot recommend Tony highly enough. He is not just a guide—he’s a storyteller, historian, and ambassador of Italian culture. Thanks to Tony, this tour was one of the highlights of our entire trip to Italy. - Apollo and Athena ...

Had an amazing time on this tour ! Marco was very informative and an excellent driver. He made our day extremely special and was able to get all our requests in even though we had limited time. We truly appreciated everything he did to make this an extraordinary experience!!

Phenomenal day trip

Our driver Domenico was super and planned our day so that we totally avoided any traffic congestion for our entire drive along Amalfi Coast including time in both Sorrento, Positano, and many picture stops of the breathtaking views. It was a perfectly glorious weather of 22C. We had a wine tasting and lunch at a vineyard then were amazed with our time exploring Herculaneum. It was truly an unbelievable experience that I shall treasure forever.

Herculaneum tour was fabulous!!

Antonio was a fabulous and very polite and knowledgeable guide. I definitely would spend your time at Herculaneum and Sorrento if you you are offered. The traffic is terrible in August and you do spend so much time in the car, but the scenery is beautiful along the Sorrento and Amalfi coast. He is an expert in Pompei and Herculaneum and is native of Sorento. He was by far the best guide we experienced in the whole of Italy or Greece. We visited Positano but it was crowded hot and hilly. Small, hot, beach with dark sand and thousands of people on a small beach area were not idyllic as we had imagined. The clothing is beautiful but hard to gauge size and can't really try on due to heat and sweating. The region is known for lemons and limoncello and we visited the Limoncello di Capri factory. Nice Place.

Amalfi Coast from Naples cruise port

Antonino was AMAZING!!!!!! He picked us up from the cruise port, we went to the Amalfi Coast and visited gorgeous Ravello and spent time in Positano. He was very patient with our kids and told us so much about the history and the region! He highly, highly recommend him!!!! Kids appreciated little candy treats from him. Grazie mille!!!!!

Amazing day, wonderful guide.

This was hands down the best tour I’ve ever taken with Viator. Our guide Antonino was friendly, accommodating, knowledgeable, an amazing driver, and just fun to be with. It made a perfect day so much nicer for my daughter and me. We went to Positano, Sorrento, and Herculaneum. Each place is amazingly beautiful and the drive along the Amalfi coast was breathtaking. Antonino told us what we could see and where to find it. I highly recommend this tour. *I chose “Couples” because it was my daughter (30 yrs and me 50 yrs)
