ローマからのポンペイ：コーチ往復と入場

Andrea was our guide. He was excellent with great knowledge shared during the coach ride from Rome to Sorrento and to Pompeii. If there was only one criticism it was the length of time we were able to spend at Pompeii otherwise it was a perfect day!!

Positives: bus ran as scheduled (and the driver was a pro navigating the tiny highway), got great views of the Almafi coast to and from Sorrento, enjoyed tasting DiCapri limoncello products amidst a breathtaking coastal view of the Bay of Naples, walking tour of Sorrento was interesting and informative, Pompeii is a site worth spending at least half a day visiting. This is your tour is the main objective is to check off boxes on your Campagnia checklist Negatives: The tour guide for what seemed to be half the sites during the bus ride, liked to highlight them only after we passed them from the ideal viewing angle (it was more reliable looking at Google Maps and getting ready to view sites like Naples or Monte Cassino ahead of time) Every additional stop is to an overpriced tourist trap (Bar Liola rest stop in between Rome and Naples, charging 3x prices to other roadside rest stop). The gift shop at the limoncello facility also is guilty of this, but I personally wouldn’t have minded that if they wouldn’t have been coupled with the other overpriced rest stops. I’m sure the tour company gets kickbacks from these places for bringing regular streams of tourists through them. You will likely be bundled with other groups who purchased other levels of guided tours of Pompeii/Sorrento. This increases the likelihood that time at your stops in the end (Pompeii in our case) will be truncated if you have parties on the tour on the slower end. We had a sit-down lunch at a restaurant next to the bus parking lot and ruins and had the standard slow paced Italian service with a 3 course meal (which I wouldn’t mind normally, but this would be better served to do more of an express lunch given it was cutting into time at Pompeii). We weren’t allowed to enter Pompeii until the entire group was ready to enter, including the family busy arguing with the restaurant on the service/bill. What I would do if I went again: pack a picnic lunch/snacks and skip any optional tours not included with the package originally booked. Maximize as much free time at Sorrento and Pompeii (if the weather isn’t unbearable) as possible, which we realize might be best done through taking the train/slow travel, as 2 hours at either site doesn’t do them justice

My daughter and myself had a wonderful day.. Enricho out guide was helpful and fun with lots of interesting information during the trip and Bruno our driver was excellent as well. We enjoyed a stop in Sorrento for lunch and a visit to the Limoncello factory and our guide through Pompeii excellent as well. Despite loosing some time on the way to Pompeii due to a bad accident on the motorway we still made it back to Rome around 7.30 as scheduled without missing out on anything. All round a great experience 😊

I went on this day trip with a group of friends and my wife and we had a fantastic time. We enjoyed our guide Alessandro immensely. He was helpful and personable giving us tips and informational history. We also enjoyed Luigi’s expert driving. The pace of the day was busy with a couple hours at each stop.

Roberta was very informative and enthusiastic leading our tour of the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. Thank you for making this outing so special 🙂

With guides lovely and provided interesting information both on the bus and at Pompeii. Sorrento lunch not worth the terrible traffic you have to go through. Pompeii was amazing and the guide presented the information with humour and relevance. I could have spent lots more time at Pompeii.

I booked with guide in French and on arrival it was English only. I was offered a difficult to use French audio guide, we had to constantly search the menu to get information 10 euros wasted. Visit Sorrento without free time as described. The guide chose a restaurant and we had time to eat before leaving. Tasting of limoncello in a shop and not at a producer.

A well organized tour. Sasha and Marco were amazing guides. I wish there was more time to eat lunch at Sorrento. The limoncello tasting could be optional. I highly recommend the tour. The trip was good overall.

Disorganized and unprofessional. Tour guide talked a lot, but didn’t provide a lot of useful information. She also didn’t seem to understand what the tour was planned for and who was participating in what part of the tour. We were told we would have two hours in Sorrento and then when we arrived we were only given an hour and it was brushed off as that is plenty of time. Pompeii was very hot and three different groups with different tours were told to wait in the heat while they sorted out radios… even for those who didn’t need them. The flow was just off and a lot of time on a very short tour was wasted with the disorganization. If you want to see these locations give yourself more time to- too much to do in one day with the drive time.

Spent way too much time at the rest stop on the way there and back, but unfortunately not enough time in Sorrento and Pompeii. The whole trip felt extremely rushed. You only get a tiny glimpse of them. Sorrento is such a lovely town, but we only got to spend 50 minutes there. Pompeii is impressive but 2 hours ist not nearly enough time to experience it. Would not recommend the tour to anyone.
