What people are saying about Pompei

My daughter and I went on this tour. Rafael is a wonderful tour guide! He is knowledgeable and kind and made the tour fun. So much to see and learn! After touring Pompeii he took us to our driver who drove us up to a winery. The food was fabulous and just to let you know it was a lot of food! The wines were great and we took home a few bottles to enjoy later. I highly recommend!!

Tour guide was great. Lots of little stories and details provided. Just make sure you have a hat and an umbrella, there is no shade or trees so temperature can get brutal and a bottle of water.

What i expected. Only English and Italian guiding at the same time is a little bit tiring.

The driver was good and our tour guide gave us a lot of good information

It was very amusing trip and guide was very helpful
