Pick-up at the hotel/station/port and transfer to Pompeii to explore one of the most fascinating places of Naples environs by the narration of a professional guide. In roman time Pompei was a rich and populated town, full of private and public buildings. On a summer's day in 79 A.D, the entire town and around 20000 of its inhabitants were buried under tons of ash and pumice because of a violent explosion of Mt Vesuvius. A shower of very fine ash was deposited everywhere to a depth of more than six meters, enveloping everything and adhering to the forms of the bodies and of their clothes. Almost 2.000 years later, you have the opportunity to discover the everyday life of the Imperial Age and imagine the panic of the people before the city was so disastrously buried. In a two hours walking tour, your guide will show you fascinating places such as The Forum, Thermal Baths, Lupanare and so on. This is a trip not to be missed for any visitor to this region of Italy.

Pompeii was so much larger than I was expecting. The tour guide was knowledgeable and very pleasant.
We enjoyed the whole experience; the pickup in Salerno was as planned. Our guide was very knowledgeable and kept the tour at a good pace allowing us all to understand what happened in Pompei
Pompeii is well worth the visit! Our meeting agent Martina was communicative and the meeting point was easy to find on foot. Ride was very comfortable, about 30ish minutes so not too bad. The tour guide in Pompeii I believe was Michele and he was great, he was well informed, engaging and funny. Loved seeing the ruins, would do it again!
Positive: Transportation was very good. Tour was very informative, a proper length and weather was perfect. The crowd was okay. The information provided was ver interesting. Negative: having to pay to use the bathroom.
The tour of Pompei only touches the tip of the city. You do learn about the eruption and the way of life. Any questions while on the tour were answered. You need a lot more time and days to really see Pompei as it is much larger than you imagined.
Directions of where to meet the driver was incorrect. Upon arrival to the noted departure point, we spoke with another Viator representative who said we were at the correct location. Waited approximately 40 minutes without any representative appearing. Wife spoke with terminal employee who was gracious enough to call tour guide. He informed us that the location was approximately one block away. Luckily the tour driver waited for us. The van driver was one of the most horrific drivers that I have ever experienced. Better part of journey, he tailgate vehicles sometimes being as close to half a car length behind. Quite harrowing experience. One we arrived at destination, we were met by the tour guide, who was phenomenal. If you are lucky enough to find the van and have a different driver, you will love the guide.
This tour was a highlight of our stay in Salerno and we chose a half day tour because it fit us better. On reflection, we would not see Pompeii without a guide! Transfer went smoothly and our guide Lisa was very clear in her communication. Finally, by visiting in December the weather was comfortable and our group size only 8! Another great experience via Viatour.
They picked us up from a place close to the hotel and drove us to Pompeii. There, we had a 2-hour tour with someone who has a lot of knowledge about the place. There were a lot of interesting details about Pompeii. We got to see the typical street, the House of the Lovers, the baths, and the forum. Overall, it was a short tour, but it included everything you need to see if you don’t have time to spend a whole day. Everyone was very professional. I would recommend this tour 100%.
As a solo traveler on this trip, I really appreciated the driver picking me up at the place I was staying. Everything was done in an organized, professional manner. The guide at Pompeii was very knowledgeable and had a good sense of humor about her. She also kept watch over her flick, and didn’t lose any of us.
