Interesting tour - Was well run and had a good experience! Pompeii is very busy, but very interesting. Hercullenuem is worth visiting as well.

Above & beyond - Excellent small group tour! Highly recommend seeing everything you want to see in a small group. There is so much to see and learn that a large group excursion would have made it impossible to cover everything that our WorldTours guide easily covered with us. It was easy to: ask questions, follow and hear the guide, and bonus points for including lunch at a delicious restaurant within a very short walking distance of Pompeii. Unfortunately, I suffered a medical emergency in the parking lot at Herculaneum and missed that part of the tour. After being tended to and cleared by a local ambulance team, my husband and I were reunited with the group and our WorldTours driver, Raffaele Battiloro, returned us safely to the port. Due to Raffaele’s assistance, attention to time and detail, we never once worried that we would be late for our ship. A special thank you to our small group tour mates from Australia and Spain for their support, concern, and most of all their assistance, during my medical emergency. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

A must see! - Wow, to be right inside Pompeii was fabulous. Though we did a lot of walking it was worth the experience of seeing 2000 years of history right before our eyes. I was so impressed with how advanced the Roman's were with all the engineering and the influence the Greeks had on the artwork and decor. This was a once in a lifetime unforgettable experience!

Informative - Full day of amazing sights and information. Pompeii was a bit over crowded but it was still worth it. Herculenium much smaller than Pompeii but just as interesting with a fraction of the crowds. Enjoyed herculenium a bit more. Lunch was basic. Driver and guide worked hard to make it a memorable day and did a great job. Archeologist did a great job and answered all questions. Great day.

A delightful historical tour of Pompeii! - The tour was very interesting! We learned a lot! Our tour coordinator, Zhanna, was fantastic, as were our two tour guides, Leo and Nando! We were picked up, and dropped off, at our hotel, on schedule! A delightful day!

Pompeii - Picked up from hotel, the journey there was very good with our tour guide giving plenty of information about where we were and also about where we were going’s - met our next guide at Pompeii and gettiing in was easy (pre-paid) we did around 2 hours and everything was informative, guide answered everyone’s questions - we saw a very small portion of the whole site (would take a week to do it all) but what we did see gave us a decent flavour of what it would have been like - all in all very informative and enjoyable - wear a hat on a sunny day and decent shoes

Day well spent - LOVED Herculaneum. Felt there was too much time wasted on the extra hour before lunch as nothing much to do. could have started an hour later or more time at the site Otherwise great. Alfrado was very passionate and knowledgeable

Solid experience - Long day, but nice way to see the sights. The small group tour was convenient have have a small van pick us up from downtown and drop us back off. Lunch was better than expected, nothing crazy, but good. Tour guides at both sites and with the van were very good. A bit expensive for what you get, but overall a good experience.

Prob would not recommend - Although offered a pick up place in a drop down menu on the site, instead of our hotel, our pick up spot was a 20 min walk away. The pick up guide, Francesco, was okay and kinda funny. The guide for Pompeii was just okay and kinda hurried and harried. Pompeii itself was very cool. The guide for Hurculaneum was better and seemed to know quite a bit about it and the times. Lunch was provided and it was okay, too, but the establishment tried to charge us 19 euro each. The guide wasn’t around so we just walked out. The description of the tour included wine tasting at the end but that didn’t happen.
