We had an enjoyable tour with Sasa. He was funny, engaging, and personable. Beware that if you go from Positano, the road is very windy and you may not feel so great... also in the summer Pompeii is HOT so he prepared. We learned a lot and saw the highlights in about a 2 hour tour.
Thank you for choosing us!
Great smooth ride and amazing guide, Frankie! He was very funny and knowledgeable. Most entertaining guide I’ve ever had.

Our guide Sasa did a great job of giving us the history and keeping us moving, driver was great too .
Frankie was an amazing tour guide. His knowledge of Pompeii as a city, how it was constructed and how the people lived was extraordinary. Frankie’s laugh was the best! Mama Mia! Would highly recommend this tour. You get to see all the highlights in 2 hours and he tries best to avoid the crowds and give you some shade.
Just to be clear, the tour of Pompeii was AMAZING! Our guide Francesca was very knowledgeable and friendly and did a fabulous job of communicating, keeping us together, etc. Temperature is very hot so make sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring a water bottle. My issue with this tour was our Transportation. We were specifically told that we would be picked up and dropped off door-to-door. Our address was provided at the time of booking as was requested. The driver did not communicate with us at all and we literally had to walk up 22 flights of stairs to meet him at 7:45 in the morning. His lack of communication and no notice of this change was simply not acceptable. Please be absolutely sure that you know where your driver will pick you up and don't assume that it won't change. Ours was booked from door-to-door and he gave us a random meeting spot at the top of the hill and told us that he did not want to drive down. We are a family of 5 and this Mama was struggling.... at the end of a long hot morning, we had to charge down to 22 flights of stairs back to our villa. He made no effort to get us back to our door.
Sorry, we thought we'd read it all, but could you explain how we were supposed to do the pick-up and drop-off at the bottom of 22 stairs with the minivan, or do you think the driver was supposed to pick you up up 22 stairs? It says the pick-up is at your hotel or the closest location, so we're specifying it to see nonsense like this written
We booked this tour last minute, and the logistics were perfect (communication and transportation 👍🏼). Antonio our driver got us to and from Positano safely and on time. Angelo was our amazing tour guide. His passion and knowledge for Pompeii made the tour exciting, interesting and informative. In 2 hours he gave us the perfect tour of the main highlights and explained everything we wanted to know. 2 hours was perfect amount of time to still get back to your location for afternoon/ evening plans. Angelos family has done tours at Pompeii for generations, which was also very cool. Would 10/10 recommend! Thanks Angelo!
It was hands down THE best experience of my entire 10 days in Italy. Enjoy Pompeii picked me up in front of my airbnb. The driver Tony was not only a good driver on the crazy Amalfi Coast roads but he was nice and fun. My guide Frankie was soooooo good!!! He made the experience epic. He was fun, funny, and super knowledgeable. I am a history buff and asked a lot of off script questions...he had the answers! I Highly Recommend this company and FRANKIE!!! He is a Pompeii rockstar. :)
Thank you for choosing us!!!!
This small group tour of 12 was provided by Sasa who was fantastic. Easy to tell he has been doing this for 25 years. First off he’s very passionate about the area and very knowledgeable. He took us to many different sites and offered detailed descriptions along the way. This is just my opinion but it was such an informative tour and he always kept your interest. We did see a lot of people walking around dazed and confused trying to read a map of the area but again personal opinion the tour was the way to go as Sasa provided so much information.
Thank you for choosing us!!!!
