Great tour…Awesome Guide. - I was hesitant to do a tour because I had a large group tour in Rome that was less than ideal. This tour was great. The guide was friendly and really knew his stuff. Don’t hesitate to take this tour, it was well worth the price. I had my best experience in Italy on this tour….even with the pouring rain. A+.

Booking a guide is so worth it! - Our guide Rafaelle was awesome. He was passionate and spoke English very well. We got so much more out of visiting this incredible place because of his knowledge. I'm so glad we decided to book this tour rather than wandering around aimlesslessly. Thanks Raffaele!

Fabulous tour with Raphael - Raphael was a fantastic guide. He made sure everyone was there and assisted with tickets. He was really informative and humorous. We are so glad we took this tour, rather than a self guided tour, in the two hours we saw so much. We went early December and weather was great with only small crowds. Would highly recommend.

A must do to appreciate the true history of Pompeii. - Ortella was a fantastic tour guide. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We covered so much in a quick 2 hours. We recommend this tour as it made it easy to see the highlights quickly and thoroughly instead of trying to do it ourselves with a map.
