Great tour!

Great trip with Daniela! He was very accommodating and friendly. The only thing I would change is the time frame. We would have like to spent more time in Pompeii. What an incredible society!

Great Day at Pompeii

We highly recommend this tour. Our driver, Andrea (Andy) was a delight. Very personable. Stopped on the way for espresso. Brought us to a restaurant for authentic Napoli pizza after the tour. Our guide, Erica was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. Andy and Erica made the day memorable.

Perfect

Gino the tour guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We saw as much as we could, but a few hours is not enough time at the archeological site. They discover new things there every day. Andy the driver was terrific. He kept us informed, took us to nice rest stops, and took us to a wonderful place for lunch after the tour.

Great visit to Pompeii!

Margarita was an excellent tour guide and really explained all the sites very clearly. She brought Pompeii to life for us. Daniele was a terrific driver. We highly recommend both of them! It was an expensive day but absolutely worth it!

First class all the way.

This is a first class trip, definitely the best way to see Pompeii. Nicola, our driver was efficient and easy to talk with. Our Pompeii guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. Definitely recommend. The company made sure they knew exactly where to pick us up..

Ivano, our professional driver and our Pompeii guide Enza were simply fantastic! There were so welcoming and friendly, and so full of knowledge. Enza took us back in time sharing the stories and lives of those living in Pompeii. She was patient as we asked questions and took lots of photos. Pace was perfect. Ivano was so accommodating and provided us safe travels and eating tips! The six passenger SUV was clean and comfortable. Andrea Schiarini Who helped us with pickup and our confirmation was great - thank you all so much! We highly recommend this tour and company.

Great Tour

Cecelia_H, Oct 2019

This was a private tour of the ruins for two hours. I was driven from Rome to Pompeii for the tour. Both the driver and the tour guide were wonderful. The drive was made pleasant by the young man who wanted to improve his English by chatting w/ an American. I was happy to do this. The tour guide started working as a tour guide in March, but she was thorough and professional. I got a great visit and lots of good information. This was not a cheap undertaking but it was worth every penny.

Outstanding trip. Highlight of our trip to Italy. Our driver, Adrianne, was the perfect host. Friendly, on time(early actually,) patient with our questions and very professional. Car was very comfortable. Our tour guide, Margarita, was fabulous. Would definitely recommend this trip. Worth the cost.
