This tour was a magical experience for our family. Our 8 and 10 year olds could not get enough of Pompeii and of Lello, our guide. Lello was engaging, informative, and hilarious! The hours flew by. The transportation was comfortable and our driver was accommodating. The lunch was an amazing experience to top off the unforgettable day at Pompeii. Thank you, Pinocchio! We’ve already started to recommend you and Lello to friends.

Pompeii and Herculaneum
Maria and the team at Pinocchio organised us a guides kids friendly tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum with a final (much needed) stop off for lunch. Our guide (Clelia) was superb; she was interesting, engaging and energetic. Not only did she manage to bring both Pompeii and Herculaneum to life for our 9 year old daughter she also managed to weave us through the ruins in a way that ensured we avoided the worst of the crowds. If you are looking for well organised, accessible, engaging tour then I can throughly recommend Pinocchio and Clelia.

Highly recommended
We visited Pompeii in January and had a fantastic time. Getting picked up at Naples train station (trained from Rome) and driven to our various stops made the day very easy and relaxing. Our Pompeii guide was very knowledgeable and was fantastic at engaging the kids (aged 11 and 13). We all loved our time at Pompei. Lunch was also lovely, great staff and delicious food. Overall a wonderful day trip and would highly recommend!

Amazing guided tour of Herculaneum.
We decided to go with Pinocchio Tours after our close friends raved about how great they are for Family guided tours in Italy. We selected the Pompeii + Winefarm. But we adapted it to go to Herculaneum instead of Pompeii. The team adapted the tour.
They met us at the Train station in Naples and dropped us off after our lunch on a Mount Vesuvius winery.
Our tour guide was amazing with our Twins (4yo) and Herculeneum was just the right size and duration for the attention span of the kids. It was magical and the story telling from our Guide Maria was just perfect. Amazing. Bravo!
Finally, our Driver was great. Our kids can get motion sickness if the driving is aggressive. Kids did great. Even because we were early, took us by Pompeii to peek into the entrance and stop at a cafe down the street.

Excellent tour for kids!
Booked this tour to make sure my 6-year-old daughter enjoyed Pompeii. It was excellent! My daughter (and my husband and I) thoroughly enjoyed exploring and learning about Pompeii with Luisa. She pointed out interesting details that we would probably have missed if we explored Pompeii on our own. She was very patient with my daughter's questions, and used a picture book to show us what Pompeii would have looked like before the explosion. She gave the book to my daughter at the end of the tour--a nice surprise! All in all we were very satisfied with the tour, and highly recommend it, especially to families with young children.
