This tour was great! You didn't see absolutely everything in Pompeii but saw the most noteworthy. It was pouring rain on Mt. Vesuvius so we couldn't go. We drove back down the mountain and the sky cleared above the mountain. so they brought is back up the mountain. Very thankful they did this.
interesting trip with a lot of information, but between Pompeii and Vesuvius there was a lunch break in an isolated place where you did not have what to do if you did not eat.
Good overview of Pompeii but you need a full day at least if you want a deep dive. Mt Vesuvius time was all that was needed. the food place that we all werre taken too was more like a fsat food catering hall I suggest you go on your own if you can. Our tour guide Roberta was awesome she made it worth it.
A great trip thoroughly recommended. A must to see the vast site of Pompeii, without the guide to point out the key areas of interest you will miss them and even if you spent a couple of days you would not see everything. It is possible to do this on your own, but because the size of the site, you will miss so much. It is an appetite wetter, as you will probably want to visit again. Mt Vesuvius was included in this tour, and although the weather was overcast and we didn't get the fantastic views across Naples bay, the crater is very dramatic with the hot steam rising which these conditions emphasised. Beware of the walk though. They say 20 minutes, and I guess if you are young and fit, like the school parties that were there on the day we went, yes 20 minutes, but for us it took 40 minutes and my wife never made the crater. A tough climb.
Transportation was convenient and comfortable. Lunch was ok. Pompeii tour guide was knowledgeable, but headsets had tremendous screeching which made it difficult and painful to hear. Vesuvius guide did not wait at the meeting point for the entire group so we were completely on our own.
Great experience. Would advise that if you want to get to the top of Vesuvius, you need to be prepared for one heck of an uphill hike, with limited time to do it. Other than that, Pompeii was amazing, our tour guide was outstanding.
Our guide, Fabrizio, was excellent. He was informative, entertaining and patient with all the tour guests. The bus driver was on time and a good driver considering all the twists and turns of the road.
The Pompeii experience was great. It was very crowded on the day we went so we appreciated having a guide who could take us to places to avoid the worst of the crowds. Vesuvius was worth doing but don't expect a very active volcano. It was again quite crowded and full of souvenir stalls.
