Escursione di un giorno a Pompei e Vesuvio da Roma con pranzo

Our guide, juliano and Diago ( took us to mount Vesuvius) were knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.

The Guide Mario was very nice and told us a lot of things about the towns and regions. The ride wos smooth thanks to the driver Peppino. We saw a lot of interesting things at the 1,5 hours of Pompei Ruins tour with Enzo. They took us 1000m to Vesuv after we hiked up to the Crater with Roberto. It was a beautiful view around the top.

The drive to Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius were good. It was nice to get a break half way to go to the washroom and get a snack…very handy when travelling with teens. The guide up Mount Vesuvius, Angelo, was fantastic. He paced things well and answered all of our questions enthusiastically. I would highly recommend him as a guide. I, unfortunately, cannot say the same for our guide at Pompeii and for our experience at Pompeii. The tour started out well and the guide, Enzo, was explaining things well. However, part way through, he got into at heated discussion with another tour guide. From what I can gather, this other tour group skipped ahead of a line and our guide didn’t like it. They were speaking Italian so I didn’t understand fully, but I didn’t think it needed to be as heated as it sounded. Then, the end of our tour was cut short without any explanation from the guide. The only thing I heard was Enzo angrily asking who threw a rock in one of the buildings. Neither my kids or myself has heard or seen anything. Our entire group got punished for one person’s actions and they didn’t even know who did it. Was it even someone in our group? It seemed that as soon as Enzo didn’t get an answer about who threw the rock, he went off in a huff without any explanation. He stopped interacting with the group and we were lead out. I don’t know if the staff threw our group out to or if Enzo decided himself that we couldn’t be there anymore. In my opinion, this should have been explained to the group. If it was beyond his control and the Pompeii staff kicked our group out, he should have explained this and apologized to the rest of the group who had nothing to do with the rock incident. He could have said something to the effect of: I’m sorry the staff has now informed me that we need to leave due to the actions taken by the person who threw the rock and our entire group has been asked to leave. I do apologize to the rest of you, but this is beyond my control. Instead he just marched out and got on his phone and spoke to someone in Italian. He didn’t even say anything to the group again, he just walked off. He seemed to forget that there were 15 other paying customers that had nothing to do with the incident; he treated us all as if we were guilty. I felt this was very unprofessional and not a good example to my teens. I would not recommend him as a guide again. He is the reason why I’m not giving this experience a 5/5.

My 9 year old daughter and I enjoyed the tour very much. We had a great time. The tour guides at Pompeii and Mt Vesuvius were awesome and very informative. They were also very easy on they eye ;) I’d recommend this tour to anyone.

Paula was an amazing guide that provided us with so much information and tips during the drive to/from Rome. The visit to Pompei was The visit to Pompeii was fantastic with our guide, Sasa. He provided so much knowledge with humor. Lunch was excellent and the perfect amount of time. The hike up Vesuvius is strenuous in the heat of summer, but the views are breathtaking. Our guide Diego was also excellent! Overall, I highly recommend this tour!

We had a great time today with Paula and the other guides. Pickup went smoothly, we stopped halfway on the 3 hour drive for bathroom breaks and a snack (if you choose). Paula pointed out places of interest and shared stories with us. She was very friendly and engaging. Sasha was great guide at Pompeii. He had a dry sense of humor that came out as the tour continued. Lunch was excellent and a lot of food. Diego was a super guide at Vesuvius. He was very informative and friendly. The hike was challenging but manageable in the heat. The view from the top is incredible.

A super day but Vesuvius was too steep for me (I am 70). After Pompeii it was too much, but I tried.

This was the highlight of our trip! Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius was more than we could have hoped for: grueling hike in the heat wave with our expert guide ended with the most spectacular view at the top! Archaeologist tour guide at Pompeii ruins was engaging and full of fun stories about the buried city. Would definitely recommend during cooler months and should wear sturdy hiking shoes and water bottle. The bus picked us up in Rome at an easily identifiable restaurant where we met our wonderful guide. This was worth the money and time!!

Our trip was very nice, the tour guides were very knowledgeable about each location, dropping interesting and random facts along the way. It was worth it for the money, and lunch was very nice.

Diego was the perfect guide on our trip to Pompeii!
