Highlights of Pompei in the afternoon

Iwona_T, Aug 2023
This was a fantastic tour- Pompeii is much, much less crowded in the afternoon and the temperature more pleasant. Out guide Glauco kept the teenagers engaged and very much tailored the facts and descriptions to their interests. Great tour, great guide. Highly recommended

Great tour, Glauco was...
