Unforgettable day in Pompeii. - Going to Pompeii had been on our wishlist for a while. It is even more beautiful than expected, frescoes in fantastic colors, impressive ruins of villas and workshops and breathtaking views. All this was brought to life in a fast-paced way by our guide/archaeologist Alessandra Sena. She told about the past in an extremely fascinating way with facts, facts and stories. A pleasure to listen to, the 3-hour tour ended way too quickly. We will definitely do it again.

One of the best tours for value I have experienced - We went on the tour with our guide Sergio, who was excellent. The amount of information and knowledge he shared with us was worth the visit. He was very passionate about Pompei and created an enjoyable atmosphere. Pompei is a must-see and I would recommend to everyone to see the Villa Misteri as well.

Fantastic tour of Pompeii highlights! - The tour was amazing and so worth the price! Unless you are very familiar with ancient roman cities I would absolutely recommend taking a guided tour and this one by Askos tour was fantastic! Our guide, Jan Carlo, was so knowledgeable, he explained in just enough details the different locations we visited and had great answers to all our questions! We spent another 4h exploring after the tour and could understand way better after receiving the information he provided.

'Small Group' and 'Archaeologist' are the reasons that we chose Askos - 'Small Group' and 'Archaeologist' are the reasons that we chose Askos for this tour. The original itinerary that I did with Askos in 2022 did not include Villa of Mysteries, so this was a great addition. The Askos representative was not on at the meeting point well in advance of the appointed time, so I had to ring them ... the guide arrived only a minute or two before the starting time of the tour. Overall an excellent tour with well arranged itinerary and information.
