Antonella and Sofia were 5-Stars! - Antonella is an amazing Pompeii tour guide and provides such a warm welcome! You feel as if you are a local and family! Sofia went out of my way to help my husband and me, and has excellent attention to detail. The wine makers are super kind, have delicious wine and food, and the horses are extremely well-cared for, thanks to everyone who works at the stables and leads the tour. I would absolutely recommend for an unforgettable time!

Best tour ever! - I’ve done a lot of tours throughout my travels, and this one has by far been the best. The tour in Pompeii was fascinating and informative. Our guide was so knowledgeable and passionate about the history of Pompeii. I only wish we could have stayed and saw more! We left Pompeii and arrived at the most exquisite vineyard for lunch and it blew me away. I had no idea we were in for such a delicious meal. Our host, Lorenzo was engaging and hilarious. Amazing experience. We ended the day with a breathtaking horseback ride through the vineyard with incredible views. Our guide was lovely and so sweet. It was a perfect day overall and I’d recommend this experience to anyone and everyone

A lovely experience - Exactly as described! Smooth transportation from site to site. Nothing felt rushed. Our pompei tour guide was kind and very knowledgeable. The winery had incredible views, situated at the base of Vesuvius. The equestrian company was organized and we felt very safe despite having minimal experience with horses. The trail ride was a good length and also along the base of Vesuvius. We had a great time and recommend to anyone passing thru the coast.

Great tour with a little bit of everything - My husband and I loved this tour. Daniel was our guide in Pompeii and he gave us a lot of great information while being assertive with tourists that were in the way or being disrespectful to the artifacts. The horse tour was also really fun- a little bit slow but we understand the importance of safety! The wine tasting was excellent as well

Pompeii, small group tour, vineyard, lunch, and horseback ride - What a great day. Our small group guide for Pompeii was Francesca and she was extremely knowledgeable. Pompeii was much more than I expected as far as the size and interest. After we finished our tour in Pompeii, we had a fantastic lunch with two other couples at a vineyard where they provided farm to table foods and wine. From there, we went on the horseback ride with Alexandra as our guide. She was great, and the ride was fun as we rode through the vineyards in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius.

Highly recommend!! Very unique & stunning experience - Starting with the trip to Pompei- the tour guide, Vivian, was mesmerizing, as she knew so much about the history of the ruins and the surrounding area. The way she spoke and described everything throughout the tour made it feel like we had travelled through time and were living in that time period! I wanted to note as well that she spoke 4 different languages, which was very impressive and enabled us to connect with the visitors all around us. There were not a lot of hills, as the city was pretty flat, but there were a lot of cobblestones and uneven surfaces. Therefore I recommend wearing comfortable shoes and bringing water. We had a great time, highly recommend!!
As for the wine tasting- After the 2 hour tour of Pompei, we were taken directly to a private car and driven to a stunning, private winery on Mount Vesuvius. The grounds were full of flowers, olive trees, etc all overlooking the bay of Naples and the milky mountains. We were tended to by a wonderful Sommelier who had us try 4 different wines. We then had a wonderful lunch, as the food was all harvested from the grounds around us. We had the most delicious lemon cake here as well. We purchased jars of honey harvested from the bees they keep on the grounds. Highly recommend coming here for dinner one night! Or as a part of this tour.
The horseback riding- After lunch, we were picked up and driven to a very large and beautiful farm on Mount Vesuvius that had 40 horses, many dogs and cats, goats, etc. We were greeted by Alexandria, who gave us a quick lesson of how to guide the horses, and then lead us on a stunning trail through the vineyard and all the farmland, which had amazing views of the bay and the mountains all around. Alexandria was so kind and so patient with us. She takes great care of the horses and knows them all really well. This was a very gorgeous and unique experience! Highly recommend, especially if you love animals!
We had the same driver throughout this entire experience. He was so kind and really funny! He let us leave our bags in the car as we went to each of the different stops throughout the day. Our driver made the transitions from one place to the other very easy. He also gave us a ton of knowledge about the area and what its like to have grown up and to live in Italy.
Overall, we highly recommend this experience!! This was a fantastic day full of stunning views & unique experiences.
