Superb Experience - Amazing Guide - We are so pleased we booked this private tour. From booking the experience, right through to going on the trip, it was top notch. I can't recommend this highly enough. Our guide, Paulo has to be one of the best guides we have ever had. We had 10 people in our party, and to be able to go at our own pace, stop where we wanted, and the way Paulo answered questions, didn't rush us, allowed us time when we need it - just WOW. I was nervous about booking a tour that was not part of our cruise, but this worry was not needed. We had more than enough time. And, seeing other groups that had booked via the cruise line with LOTS of people, we were pleased we booked ours privately for the 10 of us. All in all, I would not hesitate to book with Tour Travel & More, and can highly recommend them to everyone. Thank you, and see you next time.

Great tour. Guide was... - Great tour. Guide was very knowledgeable and in the short time we were there, we saw all the highlights of Pompeii. I had no idea how big it was so if you really want to see all of it, I would do a longer tour but ours was perfect for our group of 11.

We maintained a good pace which allowed us to cover many different areas, while also avoiding the crowds. The driver was prompt with both pickups and the van was comfortable and a nice reprieve from the heat. Paolo was waiting for us upon arrival with tickets in hand, allowing us to minimize the wait time when entering the park. Overall a great experience, private small group tour is the way to go.

Perfectly curated information! - We had a fantastic tour with Josie! Our group ranged from parents with kids ranging from 10 to 17 and we were all engaged the entire time, despite some very hot weather. Josie curated the perfect level of background, stories and facts about Pompeii and was interactive as well. Highly recommend!

Great Way to See Pompeii - What a wonderful experience. We had good communication with the driver before we were off the cruise ship. No trouble finding him once we were off the cruise ship. He was very kind and full of information. Once at Pompeii, our tour guide Josephine was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and full of interesting insights. We felt like we were with family. Our driver picked us up and took us to a great place for lunch at our request. I would highly recommend this private tour.

Great tour guide with so much knowledge! Highly recommend this tour - The pickup driver was a nice man but did not speak English well at all and no understanding of English. I had to call for his number to find out where he was. We were waiting in the pick up area and so many people we did not know where to go to find him. When I called him he was speaking a lot of Italian and took a long time to connect. He finally walked up to us after me giving him my location. He drove safely. Viator should automatically supply driver cell # and send English speaking driver. There was a communication issue on return as well. This is reason for 4 stars I cannot say enough good things about our tour guide Paulo. So knowledgeable about Pompeii and made the tour great. Was also very kind. What a plus to be guided by someone who is actually an archaeologist and has a lot of experiencing giving tours. I highly recommend this tour. It was a lot of walking and uneven surfaces but worth it to see this historical place. Highly recommend.
