Honest review! - Really great day. Good way to see Versuvius and pompei. I felt it was good value for money. Pizza lunch was pretty good, not the best pizza I've had in Italy but not the worst! Filled us up and was clearly fresh! Nick our pompei tour guide was brilliant. Top notch. Very knowledgeable and made it interactive and funny. I really respected the fact he checked with parents of young ones before discussing brothels or anything like that. Magdalena, our guide for the day, was extremely knowledgeable of sorrentto and bought enthusiasm! She was very sweet and worked really hard. Overall a great day, I've done pompei before but having a tour guide this time made it. Great experience May feel pricey but actually you get alot for your money. Would recommend 100%

Family trip to Pompei and Vesuvius - Highly recommend this day trip to Pompei and Mt. Vesuvius. Maddie and John our guide and driver for the day were excellent. Helena our tour guide in Pompei was very knowledgeable. Fab lunch on the way up to Vesuvius. Lovely surprise stop to finish the day where we sampled and bought beautiful limoncello and chocolate. 10 out of 10!

Vesuvious and Pompei day trip - Very difficult walk up to the Vesuvious crater due to loose grit and stones under foot and the steep climb which seemed to go on forever. However, feeling of great achievement when you arrive. Pompei interesting and the guide made the tour very enjoyable. Hot and exhausting and a long day but we were very glad we did it.

A great excursion - Visited Vesuvius first which was great as it beat the crowds. Pizza for lunch was very nice and included in the price. The guide around Pompeii was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. Our driver John felt very safe and our all day guide Maddie was very friendly and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend this trip.

- This was an amazing trip with two fantastic people in charge - Ilenia, our guide, and Gian Luca, our driver. Both were brilliant! We had an excellent stop at an artisan shop where we tried some fantastic drinks and chocolate (and bought a lot too!) Our guide for Pompeii was Bernadette and it was a delight to be taken through the history by her. She was softly spoken and passionate about the past but had a fabulous sense of humour too. Our pizza lunch was delicious and the beer and water very welcome too in the searing heat! The only thing that has stopped us giving it 5* is the fact that we got the impression that we would have a ‘alpine guide’ explaining Vesuvius to us. I may have misinterpreted this but I was disappointed not to have this. In every other respect this was a top class tour! Thank you Ilenia
