Pompeii and Vesuvius Hike Small Group Priority Access from Naples

Fantastic experience with the best possible tour guide Enzo! Superb English, superior knowledge of all aspects of Pompeii and a patient and caring help all the way to the top of Mt. Vesuvius. One of the best!

Enzo is a truly AMAZING tour guide. We were spoiled in a private van with A/C and taken to eat at a glorious open air, shady and cool restaurant for lunch, across from the entrance. Enzo managed in the Pompeii portion of the tour to cover a HUGE part of the complex, including touring the area with the newest discoveries! With so much to see and understand, we still never felt rushed or hurried, and we learned a LOT about the history and daily life of Pompeii, all the juicy details and anecdotes! Knowing how badly I wanted to see the very famous Alexander mosaic from the House of the Faun, (the original is in the Archaeological Museum in Naples and due to restoration unable to see at present), he personally walked me back through the grounds to make sure I was able to view it). Salvatore, our fearless and superb shuttle van driver, got us safely through the entire long day. Enzo then walked up most of the Vesuvius climb with us, determined that even the least fit among us would make it, gently pushing and cheering us on, up a very challenging ascent. Coach, guide, educator, always smiling and cheerful. What a blessing it is that we managed to get him as a guide!

Both the driver Alfonzo and our guide Andrea were amazing. They had great rapport with our family and were engaging and helpful. I recommend this tour 💯

This day of visit was wonderful from the beginning to end. We had a great driver and a very knowledgeable guide to take us through Pompeii, Herculaneum and Vesuvius! We learned so much either Luca, the guide, and it was very fun too. Unforgettable experience!

Great tour.. Climbing Vesuvius was awesome. Pompei while busy was amazing. Herculaneum was really interesting but less critical of a stop. Still all were great as was the tour planning/execution.. thanks again!!

We very much enjoyed the tour. Corrado, our driver, was great and did his best to smooth over the lack of tickets at Vesuvius. Both Tiziana and Floriana were excellent guides and shared a wealth of information about the sites. They both have great personalities and we enjoyed our time with them. Highly recommended.

Andrea, our private guide, carefully showed us all the colorful and important aspects of Herculaneum. Plus he was always attentive to our care and safety. We thoroughly appreciated his knowledge and enthusiasm for the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Andrea. Vicenzo, our driver, picked us up at the Naples train station, dropped us off at Herculaneum, then picked us up after our tour. He had quite a challenge dropping us off in Sorrento on a Friday when people are getting off from work. He skillfully dodged scooters, cars, and pedestrians, dropping us off safely at our hotel. Thank you too to Dario at Mondo tours for planning our tour experience so we could fit in Herculaneum early, giving us a free day later to enjoy Sorrento.

Dario gave an excellent tour of Pompeii. He was very informative regarding daily life in Pompeii. We then went to Naples and went to Castel Elmo to get a panoramic view of the city. Dario explained the history of the city and then we descended to the Spaccanapoli which is the street that “splits” Naples. As we walked the street with narration from Dario we learned more about the city and its history. We left feeling we had a good taste of Naples
