Amazing level of passion for the history contained within with the ability to articulate the importance of the artifacts - Leelo was our guide for this tour and he was a dream. He was extremely personable and even more knowledgeable. You can tell that giving this tour is something he is passionate about. He took us around many major points within the city and told us the historical elements housed within and their significance to life in the time of Pompeii. I would love to spend the two days he said it would take to truly explore the entire city with him as my guide.

Great small group experience with Ítalo - Our guide, Italo, was the best. Group was about 10 people. 2 hours was jam packed with great narration from Italo describing history of Pompeii. Plan on spending some time after the tour to finish up sights of interest.

Favorite tour and guide! - Italo was an awesome guide. He was interesting, kept us in the shade and made us laugh. Pacing was good and our group was small, we didn’t have to use the headsets to hear him which was great!

Make sure you have transportation - We didn’t get to do the tour because they left us. It was very unclear where to meet. All the rest of our tours included transportation from the port/boat and this one did not. The archeological site is 50 minutes away. The meeting site “coffee shop” was extremely vague. So I can’t comment on the tour because we didn’t get it although we paid for it.
