Top-notch customer service, and an amazing experience! - I made a HORRIBLE mistake and booked our tour on the wrong date, a day too early. Vincenzo was amazingly accommodating when I called him less than 24 hours out from our scheduled tour, and found us a new tour guide on very short notice. Our tour guide, Fabrizio (who came in on his day off!), was terrific! Incredibly knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the history of the area. He really made it a special trip for both us and the kids. We would absolutely recommend this tour without hesitation!

Our guide was very... - Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful, our tickets for entry wouldn’t show on the phone but he persuaded the ticket window lady that it was ok to hand them over. His knowledge of Pompeii was first rate, we had over our allotted time and he still sat down and told us where else to see

Good but rushed - Guide was very knowledgeable but was rushing us through the tour. She was running up ahead of the group and we were rushing to keep up. Some in our group had mobility issues which made things difficult.
