Very good option if you want to do all 3 options in one day! - Cesare is a great driver! He is very nice, polite and accommodating. The tour is a good option if you have limited time and want to visit all three options in the same day!

A good day - The trip was perfect. Cesare, the driver, was on time and had great communication. The trip was smooth. We had free time in each place to explore on our own. I definitely recommend this company.

Highly recommended! - The pick-up at the port worked wonderfully. Cesare drove me and the rest of the small group very well from Naples to the respective destinations. Pompeii, simply without words. Very impressive. Ercolano, at first glance I thought, oh the little sister of Pompeii, but that's not true. Really impressive too. And at the end of Vesuvius!!! Your real experience.

As above - Our driver was Vini. He was at all times courteous and helpful. He made sure that we always entered our visitation and helped us obtain tickets when we were lacking them at Vesuvius. Also he provided interesting background information about the local areas we traveled through. He spoke good English and was an excellent driver . He made the whole day extremely pleasant and I would recommend him most highly.

Made the most of the time we had - Picked up on time at the meeting point and the schedule was very clear but flexible. Luigi had a lot of knowledge of the places we were visiting. He organised a tour guide for us when we got to Pompeii and she was terrific..Tickets were prebooked which made our tour more efficient. Luigi had local knowledge of places to eat for authentic Italian cuisine. He was polite and easy to listen to. His driver Alfredo was a safe driver and managed the treacherous road to Mt Vesuvius confidently. Overall, an enjoyable experience.

Naples to pompeii, mount vesuviois and Herculeam with the funny Mario! - Mario the driver with the most knowledge and passion for Naples we could have ever asked for. He kept us entertained and educated on Naples history throughout the journeys between the sights (even teaching us multiple Napoli ‘language’). Mario also has a serious passion for napoli football and in particular his second saint ‘maradona’! Talk about McTominay this season and get lots of ‘mamma Mia’s! Couldn’t have asked for a better, more friendly, knowledgable and funny driver. The sites were great to see but be aware of additional admission costs.

Fun experience - Fun tour, Rosita and Vincenzo are charismatic and great people. Drove the group with a clear schedule from place to place. I was expecting a tour guide-ish experience at each place but was more of a uber experience just letting everyone do their own thing at each site. Also would rather prefer tickets for all three be included in a higher price than not.
