Stellar Point-to-Point Touring Service - When time is short but your travel to-do list includes visits to Pompei and Sorento, look no further than Crown Tours. It's without doubt both sites are breathtaking—the ruins of the micro-city of Pompei and the coast of Sorento—however, when you have tour guides and vehicle operators like Luca and Giacomo (Jack) your trip becomes a truly memorable experience. Both arrived on time and ensured the travel safety and comfort of my family members (split into two vans due to the number of individuals). Breakfast was a delight; the cafe at which we made our first stop served scrumptious, freshly baked croissants and offered a choice of espresso or cappuccino to get us fired up for the adventure. Apart from the two main attractions, every stop to admire the gorgeous scenery, learn about the region, and take photos was well executed and Luca and Jack made themselves available to take some of the burden from family travel (e.g., carrying the baby stroller, easing passengers out of and into the vans, pulling chairs for everyone before seating at tables, etc.). I also appreciate that they shared their knowledge of key locales along the way as part of the tour and that they weren't coy about striking a conversation with us en route to neutralize the silence in the van. And, to avoid spoiling any surprises for would-be Crown Tours customers of this tour package, lunch at the final stop before heading back to Rome (at least for us) was spectacular! Crown Tours easily earns my approval for top-class touring services and I highly recommend them for their fun, friendly, and pleasant customer service throughout the entire trip. To Luca: thank you very much for letting me use one of your many chargers to keep my phone's battery charged!

Best day trip ever! - It was the best tour we have ever been on. Our guide at Pompeii was great. Her knowledge was excellent. Our driver Jack went out of his way to treat us very special. Breakfast was amazing. The stops were breath taking. Our lunch and location was beyond anything we could have imagined in Sorento. The food and scenery were outstanding. Thank you Jack!

Solo Traveller Dream to Pompeii - This experience was truly one of a kind! I had always dreamed of going to Pompeii so this trip was definitely a dream come true for me. The drivers were so nice and I usually get anxious driving in cars in Italy but they were amazing drivers which made me feel safe and secure. Then breakfast was absolutely delicious! The drive was so fun, I was solo traveller so I got to ride with a group of older people and they were so fun to talk to. Pompeii was gorgeous and we went in basically right away, the guide was so knowledgable and I felt like I was literally walking through history. Then after we stopped in Sorrento to take pictures and took in a beautiful view. For lunch we were seaside and ate one of the best pizzas I've ever had! Then we headed home and it was all just amazing! I could not recommend this more if you want to visit the South but want something tailored just for you. I had so much fun and I actually am still in contact with one of the older people I met on this trip!

Day trip out of Rome - Wonderful all-inclusive small group day trip out of Rome. Professionally guided tour of Pompeii who knows how to get the most out of your couple hour visit. A stop for lemon sorbet with a shot of local limoncello. Then on to Sorrento for a wonderful authentic Italian lunch by the sea with water and wine. The Mercedes van looked new and was in great shape. The driver and helper were wonderful!!!

As Advertised... - Crown Tours offered a safe and convenient direct drive in a mini-van to Pompei. It was efficient and safe and the drivers were pleasant. Unfortunately the Pompei tour was short and quite limited in scope, the guide herself was good. The driver-operators, though nice, were not very attentive or informative. A couple of their employees attended the tour and they were more focused on them than the paticipants. I would not recommend the drive to Sorrento, pretty scenery, but the lunch and time spent doing it was not worth it. The drive service is excellent, the tour and experience was not.
