We all had a fantastic day with our private tour. Our driver was punctual with picking us up at the cruise port. He drove us to Pompeii, where we met our private tour guide, Paolo Di Leva. He was excellent, so knowledgeable and friendly. His passion for sharing his knowledge of the area was fantastic. I would highly recommend Paolo. After Pompeii, we went for lunch at Ristorante”Vesum”, which was excellent. After lunch we went to Mt.Vesuvius to climb to the top from the parking lot. Luigi informed us what time we would need to leave to get back to the cruise ship on time. He was an excellent driver and would highly recommend him. One last very important comment. A week and a half prior to our cruise, the cruise line switched the Port of Naples to the Port of Salerno. I contacted Patricio and she made it happen to switch our pick up point.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We are delighted to hear that you had a wonderful day exploring Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius. We truly appreciate your kind words about Paolo and Luigi, and we will be happy to share your compliments with them. Thank you again for your recommendation. We hope to welcome you again in the future!

Fantastic experience, everything was very simple and a great choice, from the first contact with Pilar Collaretti, who was always attentive to all our questions, to the development of the excursion, which was private for a group of 15 people. They put two vans at our disposal, and both drivers were very kind and helpful. The guide, Paolo, was very good; he makes the visit enjoyable and with touches of humor, which is appreciated when you go with children, whom he always kept attentive to his explanations. I would book with them again. Thank you

The tour was great. The poor interaction between Viator and Trip Advisor added unnecessary frustration. Viator had the correct hotel pick up but Trip Advisor kept sending email reminders saying we were being met at the marina.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour. At the same time, we’re sorry for the confusion caused by the conflicting pickup information. We're glad that the correct hotel pickup was arranged and that you were still able to enjoy the tour.

Our tour and activity through your company was amazing from start to finish I thought I may have to cancel due to long lineups through immigration after getting off the ship however, Luigi, our driver was in constant contact with us from the day before till he picked us up, he was awesome. Then when we landed in Pompeii, Romeo was our private guide and he is a wealth of knowledge. A very, very good tour guide and I would highly recommend him again. Your company from start to finish made the experience amazing for the six of us who were in our group. I would definitely recommend your company to anyone else looking to do the same. I’m fact I have already passed the contact information on to someone who is trying to book today.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had an amazing experience from start to finish.

It all went very well. The driver went pick up and take to the hotel, not properly cozy more correct. The guide in Pompeii was excellent, Paolo, very friendly, knowledgeable, attentive, answering our questions and made a great visit, showing highlights and trying to avoid areas too full of people, was fabulous.
Muito obrigado pelo seu comentário. Ficamos muito felizes em saber que tudo correu bem durante a sua experiência. É especialmente gratificante saber que o guia em Pompeia, Paolo, tornou a visita tão especial com a sua simpatia, conhecimento e atenção aos detalhes. Saber que ele conseguiu mostrar os pontos mais importantes enquanto evitava as zonas mais movimentadas torna o seu feedback ainda mais valioso para nós. Agradecemos sinceramente a sua confiança e esperamos poder recebê-los novamente numa futura experiência.
Our trip to and from Pompeii with Tony, our driver, was wonderful. He is very personable, and he really helped us understand some things about Napoli and Italian that will make our stay much easier. His enthusiasm about the city is catching! Paolo, our private guide, brought us in through a different gate than we'd entered before. He, too, was charming and full of knowledge. He was able to answer every question. He added tidbits about words in English that come from Roman processes that we had never noticed! His explanation of the life in Pompeii brought that city to life. We could not have had two better guides! I highly recommend this tour where we were able to interact one-on-one with both our leaders.
Thank you very much for your wonderful feedback. We’re delighted to hear that your experience was so enjoyable and that both the journey and the guided visit made your time in Pompeii even more memorable. It is especially rewarding to know that the personal attention and knowledge shared throughout the tour added so much to your visit. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again on another exceptional experience in the future.
We are SO glad we booked this particular private tour, and we were fortunate to have Paolo as our guide. The tour company was very responsive and provided ongoing communication during our planning and preparation for the trip. Everything was easy and seamless -- from the hotel pickup to the dropoff. Visiting Pompeii is an incredible experience, but having Paolo as our guide put this experience over the top. He was engaging, insightful, humorous, unbelievably knowledgeable and an expert communicator -- helping us truly understand and visualize what life was like in Pompeii 2,000 years ago. Paolo's own personal experience with archaeological excavation work at Pompeii has equipped him with a depth of knowledge that helped bring this experience to life. We highly recommend this private tour and suggest that you specifically request Paolo to be your guide.
Thank you very much for your kind and thoughtful review. We are truly delighted to hear that your private tour experience exceeded your expectations and that every aspect was smooth and well-coordinated. Your recommendation means a great deal to us, and we sincerely appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We will be sure to pass along your kind words to Paolo, who will be very grateful for your recognition. We look forward to welcoming you again on another memorable journey in the future.
