Was told to meet at a time and they change it. Stood waiting for over a hour. Very unrealiable still waiting very dissapointed.
Thank you for your feedback. We kindly clarify that we informed you a few days in advance about a small change to the meeting time, and you also confirmed the updated details. Unfortunately, despite this, you arrived at the original time rather than the revised one. We are sorry for the inconvenience, but the updated information had been communicated and confirmed beforehand.Thank you for your understanding.
Pompeii was absolutely amazing and our guide, Younis was very knowledgeable and funny and likable and added to our experience at pompeii He deserves a payrise! 😊 He also helpfully arranged our transport back for our journey home which we was not expecting so we thank him for that too.
A journey into the past. Thanks to your formidable organization, we enjoyed this wonderful excursion to Pompeii Special thanks to Sara, our guide A wonderful woman, able to transport you to ancient Pompeii, her empathy was engaging and her preparation was impeccable. Thank you very much we will definitely be back. We highly recommend this excursion. Stefania and Claudio
beautiful experience is definitely worth it. The rider Antonio super nice and also available in recommending places to eat for lunch super appreciated. super professional and nice Pompeii guide. Top experience
Super experience Marco was a great guide and super informative. Antonio our driver was punctual and took great care of us. He should get a raise just for driving the roads to Mount Vesuvius they are brutal but he drove them like a pro! Be warned though the hike up the mountain is not for couch potato’s.
Thanks By Antonio and Marco!
The ride went very well, we listened to music. Antonio is very nice, very helpful. The visits went very well!
Perfect organization from the start. The transference arrived on time at the meeting point. Arrived in Pompeii we were greeted in a kind and smiling way by what would have been our guide. All the time no one in our group was distracted, on the contrary, the guide involved us in the story managing to keep high attention on what he explained; very professional and competent he used simple language and understandable for all participants (people who did not know each other and with the presence of 4 school children not older than 12 years).
Grazie mille per la bella recensione che ci avete lasciato, significa molto per noi.
We booked a guide but seen the older stuff last time, so we went on our own to see the new buildings unearthed, was an amazing time.
Thank you for the review!
