Excellent tour! Giovanni... - Excellent tour! Giovanni was so sweet and informative, definitely the best bus guide we’ve ever had. You could definitely tell he truly enjoys his job. Pompeii was amazing with our enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, Francesco. The lemoncello factory was very cool, we got to sample several types of lemoncello and other treats. Lastly, our trip to Sorrento was magical, the coastal city is definitely a destination that everyone would enjoy. If you’re looking for a little variety in your Rome stay, I would definitely recommend this tour!

a blast from the past - Pompeii alone is worth the trip, it's a city that takes you back to the ancient splendors of the past, well told by the local guiada, which has us passionate in just under two hours we can relive the thrill of this ancient civilization

Pompeii is so worth the trip - wish we had more time there! - Pompeii was amazing! Just wish we had more time there. 90 mins of this 13 hour tour just wasn’t enough - I could have spent days there. Giovanni was a great guide overall. Francesco led the tour at Pompeii itself and he was phenomenal. The food at the restaurant we all ate lunch at in Pompeii (il Vesuvio) was fine - about average. Sorrento was beautiful too - again wish we had more time than an hour there. One thing I really didn’t like was the rest stop in Casino - it’s clear all these tour companies have an agreement with this restaurant stop since the parking lot was loaded with buses both times we stopped. It was honestly gross - under construction, dirty overcrowded toilets, masses of people everywhere. And the food inside looked….warmed over. We passed so many seemingly clean modern highway rest stops - why not just stop at one of those for a bathroom break? Otherwise, it was a positive tour experience.
