Highly recommended

Book the private tour with Francesca instead of this group tour. It's a bit more, but a much better experience than group tours I've taken in the past. They do claim to speak english, but it is very limited if you need to actually communicate with them.

Pompei Visit

Fun and informative. We enjoyed our visit, Sasa was mindful of the heat and had a very good sense of humour. A good way to see Pompei for a quick visit and learn as much as possible.

Fantastic time.

Pompeii was the best tour we took and I highly recommend it if you are anywhere in the area. We stayed in Rome and made a daytrip down to Pompeii and it was percect. Frankie, our guide, was very nice and informative. He had the group laughing and enjoying themselves even in the incredible heat.

Great tour and a great value

Franchesca was excellent. She was engaging and entertaining. Loved the tour. We went in the afternoon and it was HOT but not crowded at all! I would do an afternoon tour again just because we felt like we had Pompei to ourselves. What a great experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour. The meeting point is immediately outside and to the left of the Pompei Villa Dei Misteri station Super convenient from Naples or Sorrento. It was €6 roundtrip for two of us from Castellamare de Stabia. What a deal! Purchase cold water at the meeting spot because it’s very warm in Pompei. You can refill at a few stations within the park. It was a very memorable day.

Thanks for saving the day Frankie!

I booked this tour with an Italian guide. When we arrived, we were put into an English speaking tour. The tour company didn’t pay attention to the request at booking time- very disappointing… But Frankie was an excellent tour guide! He saved the day. Frankie did the tour in English for the group and in Italian for my friend. We learned a lot and enjoyed the tour. Frankie was excellent. He guided us away from crowds and lines which did make all the difference! It’s my 5th time visiting and the most memorable with Frankie’s details.
