Pompeii with Viator - Choose Leelo, if you can. He mixed humor with knowledge of archaeology for a totally fantastic tour. He added warmth for a very enjoyable experience.

Our tour of Pompei with... - Our tour of Pompei with Italo was amazing. He took us in through the back entrance to help us skip long lines and enjoy more time in the ruins vs waiting in line. Would recommend to anyone, especially families with teens. My only complaint is that we wanted more!

Do this tour!! - This was a fabulous experience. Our expert guide was friendly, funny and clearly passionate about history and the uniqueness of Pompeii. We learned so much and it was never dull. We wished history lessons in school were like this! It was hot but our guide was great about getting us into the shade whenever possible. Would strongly recommend this experience if you are near Naples/Pompeii or even on the Amalfi coast!

Pompei Tour - A very nice tour led by Italo who was fantastic! The tour was thorough and covered all the key areas of the site, Italo’s knowledge and commentary made it quite educational and entertaining at the same time. The site is huge but also full of many tours going on simultaneously so be prepared for that. At the end of the tour you are free to stay and continue on by yourself. Highly recommended.

Amazing. Book this tour! - There are obviously lots of tours to choose from. The choices are overwhelming. Stop searching and book this tour. Our guide Lalo (I might be misspelling his name ) was one of the best I ever had. He is like the mayor of Pompeii and knows everyone. All the guides seem to go to him for advice. He is very knowledgeable, entertaining, and engaging and speaks perfect English. Totally worth it. Stop your search and book this tour.

Great Day at Pompei - Excellent tour of Pompei led by our really knowledgable guide Italo, whose vast knowledge of the history of the site made the tour both interesting and amusing. Even though the site was very busy our guide managed to navigate our small group around all the key sites whilst avoiding the majority of the pinch points. The train station is only 5 minutes from the entrance to the ruins and we used the Campania Express pre booked train service which ensured we had a comfortable journey from and to Sorrento A great day out
