Great guide for Herculaneum and Pompeii - Asko Tours set up a great day for us. Our driver, Francesco, was professional, prompt and friendly. He also setup lunch for us at a local restaurant in Pompeii for delicious local cuisine. Our tour guide, Jasmine, was the best! Her knowledge of the area and sites was detailed and she made everything very interesting. There was a lot to see and she was great at showing us the most important parts. This was the highlight of our trip to Italy and I highly recommend Asko Tours. And be sure to ask for Jasmine as your guide!

Brilliant tour led by Sergio and supported by Francesco - The exploration of pompei and hurceuleam can only be brought to life by the knowledge and insight provided by an archaeologist. We had Sergio who was superb. Without his explanation of the sites and pointing out specific features that only a trained eye could do, I don’t think we would have enjoyed the visits half as much. Sergio was very knowledgeable and his communicative style was very clear, well structured and captivating. He explained key archeological highlights using storytelling techniques which really does keep your attention and makes the tour incredibly interesting. Supporting the tour on the day was Francesco Calenda our driver who was very friendly and made our journey as comfortable as possible. He also did a great job in picking out key points of interest along the journeys between sites. Thank you Sergio and Francesco for making our day great and a memorable one. Highly recommended

A Knowledgable Guide With A Passion for History - (This tour was booked through GetYourGuide) The guide made the tour great. Diego was the name of our tour guide. He was knowledgeable and considerate of the group. There were older individuals in the group and he often asked if the group wanted to press on. The transportation was fine, but the back left wheel made a sound on turns that caused many to have concern. However, other than this, everything was great. The weather was rainy, but overall pleasant and the group took full advantage. My tour was on March 13, 2025. Diego made Herculaneum and Pompei come alive. The headsets provided ensured that Diego could be heard even if you were far away from him. Mahalo nui loa (thank you very much)

Survived the heat! - Francesco C. our driver was Excellent. Sergio our guide was good. Group size was larger then expected. Audio headsets had connectivity issue when group was spread out. Pompeii tour was good. Herculaneum tour was the best. July heat! Mall stop was not our cup of tea, but due to the heat it was understandable.
