1. Very pricey; it did not feel like a private tour as we rode around in a taxi. 2. Driver sweet but not focused on our tour 3. Expected tour guide to speak English and not translate thru phone. 4. Tour guide (Julia) at Pompei site was fantastic. She was so knowledgeable. In Dublin we booked similar type of tour and it was the difference between night and day. We have used Viator over the years many times and this was disappointing
Personal driver and tour narrator were great. Pickup near our hotel since traffic was not allowed in front of hotel. Visuvius and Pompeii were more than expected. Tour was private only for four people. Miriam was such a great guide at Visuvius. She was absolutely the best.
Our driver Gennaro was very professional. Great communication on where to meet and greeted us with a very warm welcome. Awesome local knowledge. Definately do the winery lunch, the red wine is amazing. The tour guide of Pompeii was very knowledgeable. Definitely recommend this tour, request Gennaro as your driver for a really good time.

Hiking to the top of Vesuvius is amazing. And definitely go to a winery for lunch! Our guide was excellent.
We loved our tour of Vesuvius and Pompeii! Our driver Giuseppe arrived early and navigated through Naples like a pro. So glad I didn’t have to drive! We had a great time hiking the rim before all the other buses got there. Giuseppe knew we wanted to spend as much time in Pompeii as possible so he found us a quick pizza in town (and spritz for me) before our visit. Pompeii is amazing and our guide did her best to duck and weave through the crowds to give us the best possible experience. Props for making this a great day! Thank you to Sofia for handling the logistics and our requests!
Your wonderful words truly made our day! Thank you for being part of this adventure. We’re already looking forward to welcoming you back!
This is an exceptional day trip with a visit to the top of Mount Vesuvius then a guided experience to the Pompeii ruins. We were also treated to a winery lunch as an optional extra which was a lot of fun . Our driver Dino was great . He managed the time scheduling of the day really well and was a wealth of knowledge regarding the historical events. Naples is a very busy city and this was a relaxing stress free way to experience the Mt Vesuvius and Pompeii. Communication was excellent. Recommend .
Ciao Adele!! Having the chance to schedule your tour has been a pleasure, you deserved the best attention, and that's why we asked Dino to take care of you for the whole day! He's very passionate and knows the Amalfi Coast as the back of his hand! Whenever you come back, you're more than welcome Ciao!!
This was the best way to experience Pompeii and Vesuvius - our driver Dino was very informative and the van was comfortable. It was nice to arrive at Vesuvius early in the morning before the crowds and a private guide through Pompeii was very helpful. We learned so much more than the first time we went without a guide.
Thanks a lot for your sweet words, we're so happy to see that you enjoyed our experience! Whenever you'll be in the area you'll be more than welcome!
The entire day was more than expected. Our driver, Gennaro, was excellent. Knowledgeable, kind, and a skilled driver, he made our day stress free. Vesuvius was awe inspiring and the view of the volcano, the Bay of Naples, City and surrounding area breathtaking. We were driven to the Bosco de Medici Winery for excellent wine and a delicious midday meal and then on to Pompeii. A dream come true. Our guide answered our many questions, imparted a vast amount of knowledge, and made this a most memorable experience
Thank you William for your feedback, it is very helpful for us since it makes other people understand how we work!! Grazie mille!
We booked the private driver (Dino - amazing, warm, and the nicest man you will ever meet) through Sofia and had a tour guide (Antonio) for Pompeii. Afterwards, Dino drive us over to the Bosco do Medici winery for lunch. We loved our sommelier Matteo. He was engaging and very funny Truly an AMAZING experience and worth every penny! ❤️❤️
OHHH, your words make us melt!! Grazie, you're so sweet! Please come visit us again as soon as you come back Ciaooo!
Picked up at our Almafi hotel and drove to Vesuvius first. Dino was a great and informative driver. Very helpful in locating a great lunch near Pompeii. The tour guides at both Vesuvius and Pompeii were excellent.
Thank you for this amazing feedback! It's important for us to see that you appreciate our work, we do give our best to make you live unforgettable days with us during your trip! Hope to see you soon! Ciao :D
