Great way to see both fascinating places, pace was good. - Excellent tour with knowledgeable guide. It was a very hot day but the pace was easy, and the lunch at a lovely restaurant, with great food, broke the day up nicely. Fascinating places. Pompei and Herculaneum are quite different, we were glad we chose to see both of them.

Made Learning Fun - Francesca was a wonderful, kind and generous guide who had detailed knowledge. She kept the tour fun and interesting.

Good tour - Guide was very good. We enjoyed the tour. We left from Sorrento where we stayed. The transportation from Sorrento was a factor in booking the tour.

Good value for money - Knowledgeable guide interesting stories . Good answers to questions. Good pace. Day was hot but guide made sure we were in the shade when possible.

It delivered on... - It delivered on everything we were expecting. Our guide Fabiano was very informative. The meal was very good and well organized. The sights are amazing and give such a vivid glimpse into what life was like in that region 2,000 years ago. It's remarkable how advanced their civilization was.

A very good overview of two important sites... - Tony did a fine job of handling quite a few people and keeping all on track. Of course, our time in Pompeii was somewhat short, but I don't think you could see the whole of it, no matter how much time you had. I felt that we saw at least most of the highlights. The lunch was quite good and gave us a chance to rest a bit. Herculaneum was a bit more controllable, as it's a smaller site, and we were able to see quite a lot of it. All in all, I felt it was very well done and that the tour leader did a fine job.

Great tour, OK lunch - Pompeii & Herculaneum are both fascinating & memorable. A must-see when in this area. Our guide Analisa was excellent, gave us lots of great information, was very positive & engaging. Lunch was rushed & it felt like the restaurant staff knew they weren't going to get a tip. A great day overall.

Great informative tour. Herculeum a surprise - Tour guide extremely informative and knowledgeable. Ran on time and easy to follow. So glad we did the Herculeum as well

Could be more informative of wider aspects. - Tour guide talked too much and could've have shown more places in Pompeii eg. Better bath complexes, personal villas of actual people now identified, unique water and drainage systems. Sorry.

Touring Pompeii is hard work - Our guide was boring. He put us to sleep on the long bus ride from Sorrento to Pompeii. We got a late start and no one informed us we could have been picked up near our hotel. We waited in the bud park in Sorrento for an hour before joining the tour. We got to Pompeii by 10:30am by which time it was getting hot. Pompeii is all hard surface rubble with no place to sit. Our guide took us in a side entrance and we toured an amphitheater and area before reaching the Main Street. Pompeii is poorly signed and confusing as it all piles stone walls and rubble. Our guide kept us at a fast pace and we ran through the ruins, we barely got to stick our head in a feature before having to run to keep up with the group. The final visit was the Villa of the Mysteries. It could have been interesting but our guide narrated a confusing story and I have no clue what he was talking about. Had a decent lunch and then toured Herculaneum. Everyone was hot and tired by this point. Herculaneum is easier to understand but by this time everyone was flagging.
