Pompeii Tickets & Tours

Absolutely incredible experience! The 2-hour guided tour of Pompeii was the perfect way to explore this vast archaeological site without feeling overwhelmed. Our English-speaking guide was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also passionate about Roman history, which made the ruins come to life in an unforgettable way. The tour covered the highlights of the ancient city, including the Forum, the baths, the brothel (Lupanar), and several well-preserved homes with frescoes still intact. The guide provided fascinating context about daily life in Pompeii before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, weaving in stories that made it feel personal and engaging. It was the right balance of walking and listening—never rushed, and plenty of time to take photos and ask questions. Headsets were provided so we could hear everything clearly, even in busier sections of the site. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Pompeii for the first time. It saves you hours of wandering aimlessly and gives you a much deeper understanding of what you’re seeing. Two hours flew by, and I left with a sense of awe at the complexity and tragedy of this once-thriving Roman city.

We ended up arriving late in the day (around 4) and there was no line at all. We went in immediately, looked around the first floor of the palazzo but tried to get into the garden as soon as possible. They close at 7:30, but we had plenty of time and were able to pretty much see everything. Even the Grotto of Diana that reopened after a major renovation (and being closed for 40 years!) it's quite amazing. I hope they will continue to renovate and be able to maybe even bring some fountains back. You can see a lot of work is happening. We also got to hear the organ fountain. It plays every 2 hours on the 1/2 hr. (10:30, 12:30, etc) so amazing

Great service through the app and audio guide! Loved our day exploring! The cafe and cleanliness were excellent also! Would come again!

Even if you have tickets bought online, you still have to queue at the entrance to exchange them for paper tickets. With the digital auudioguide, geolocation isn't always accurate and you spend a lot of time looking for the commentary you're looking for. After a 3-hour visit, the audioguide had used up all my phone battery. But the advantage of this formula is the very democratic price.

I spent HOURS of time looking at tours, reading reviews and weighing one against the other. I am so glad i purchased this tour for our family of 5 (2 adults, 20 year old and 18 year old). Our tour guide - a third generation tour guide - was FABULOUS. He hit the right mix of funny , historically accurate and culturally insightful. He made it personal to the entire group and worked hard to make sure everyone felt included and connected.

Everything was so easy! From booking to meeting place. I was even contacted by WhatsApp to avoid the inconvenience of a free day at pompei which would have been a very busy day. The guided tour was efficient and very interesting. In short, a faultless tour. Thanks to the whole team (I was initially worried when I booked, reading some of the comments). For us: it was perfect!

The guide was excellent – professional and pleasant. The tour was fascinating. The meeting point was in a shaded area on the second floor of the train station, but unfortunately, there was no clear signage to help locate it easily.

I did the Pompeii guided tour on Monday 19 May, Our Guide Giuseppe was fabulous - he was obviously passionate about roman history and passed on his knowledge in a friendly, fun manner. After the tour ended I stayed in the park to the end of the day and Giuseppe's tour helped with the rest of my sightseeing afternoon. Thankyou Giuseppe 🙏❤️

Good meeting point directions with agreed times and a contact number. We were kept informed

Experienced history, up close! Absolutely impressive!

Organised. Prompt star.t. Very knowledgeable guide.

The guide was really caring and make the tour humorous ☺️

The guide Angelo was excellent!

The guide was fantastic, we liked not waiting in line

The tour guide was very knowledgeable and gave great insights. I feel like the tour covered everything essential I needed to know.

The excavations of Pompeii itself are very interesting, but it is difficult to get information only from the audio guide because the descriptions are not organized by region and the information boards on site are only partially helpful or not available.

It was a beautifull location en very special to visit. It was sometimes a bit difficiult to follow the app and the explanation was sometimes very short.

Just as I'd imagined, it was a leap back in history, full of surprises and beauty. This site is full of archaeological treasures, and I'll never forget it viva Italia🇮🇹🇮🇹

I drove to Pompeii and used their Parking Lot. Getting into the ruins was a bit complicated. I showed my online ticket near where I parked and got a receipt, then went upstairs to pick up my audio unit. They hold your ID until you return. They explained I needed a voucher to enter the ruins. The entrance was a 5 minute walk back to another station that wasn't well identified, near coffee and food shops. They wanted to see the receipt and some ID, and finally issued an official entry ticket. The entrance tto the ruins was there. I think if you don't park, you can be dropped at the entrance easily. The ruins are amazing.

I wasn't expecting to be so smooth. All the details were explained in the e mail- as were where to find the ticketing office , how to get there etc. The tickets were there waiting for us and it took us few seconds to get through the gates .

We could not find the ticket office we spent probably 30 minutes looking for this, as the coach had dropped as at the top by the train station, every time we asked someone, we were directed somewhere different, we asked for headphones for the app so we could have audio commentary but they only do android ones, tried listening from my phone without headphones but wasn't easy, we were also. It offered a map, so it was very difficult to understand what we were looking at ???

The instructions were clear and exact. No crowds, fast sevece. The agents on the check desk were very polite and helpful. The audio guide is very useful.

First place to pick up the ticket without any problems, then arrival at the entrance to Pompeii, tickets not accepted, no queue cutter, I had to queue a very long time to pick up the official tickets.

The visit went well. The site is magnificent, and by selecting the places to see beforehand, the self-guided tour is quite enjoyable. Regarding the booking, we booked online, in advance to save time, but we had to go through an office to get the audioguides (where the staff were lovely), then queue like everyone else to get the entrance tickets!!!! This makes no sense, so I see no point in buying tickets online...

It was not clear that for the price we paid and part of the area we were not allowed to see (including villa the mysteries).

The guide was fantastic. We had a very interactive tour with great insights about the site and feel that we understand a bit better the complexity of Pompei. The group was small and we had a lot of fun together. Overall great experience.

Headout app was easy and comprehensive to navigate. I managed to squeeze in to purchase last minute tickets to Pompei with archaeologist the night before. Once bought, the agency (Askos) was in touch via email and WhatsApp to confirm the booking, and give reminders to be on time. Straight forward instructions to reach, and saved quite a bit of $$ using public transport to the location. Really made my Naples trip a memorable one, so much so that I used to buy tickets to the catacombs too. They even gave discounts for future Headout purchases. I highly recommend this platform.

We ended up arriving late in the day (around 4) and there was no line at all. We went in immediately, looked around the first floor of the palazzo but tried to get into the garden as soon as possible. They close at 7:30, but we had plenty of time and were able to pretty much see everything.

It plays every 2 hours on the 1/2 hr. (10:30, 12:30, etc) so amazing

Really lived up to its name as we skipped pretty much all the clues. Paulo (our guide) took us where the queues weren't; and was on good terms with every crowd controller (most were ladies - just saying) and knew absolutely everything we needed to know. It was very interesting to see the ongoing excavations under the high tech structure and appreciate how much material is moved to access this town frozen in time. It is still possible to imagine the owners of these villas and understand some of how their world operated before that fateful day, and a knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide like Paulo is key to that.

We had a great time on this tour and it was just the right amount of history and humour for a family of different ages and interests. Our guide Frankie was excellent at keeping us away from crowds and in the shade as much as possible and made the experience "fantastico". Would recommend.

Ma Laura was a kind and experienced guide that game us a lot of information on facts abou Pompei. This tour was great thanks to Ma Laura! Thank you very much!!!

Our time spent at Pompeii was unforgettable. I will treasure the memories forever. What a remarkable place to visit and our tour guide was very so good 😊 explaining everything and showing us all the fascinating sites , steeped in history.

Thanks to the humor and eruption of our archaeologist guide Hillary, we had an extraordinary visit. Bravo, I recommend this formula.

The crowds were enormous, because it was the first Sunday of the month and the entrance for the rest of the people was free. Our guide explained to us that on 2nd of June is the day of the Republic so that's why the crowds were so big. Roberta was great in taking us to see the best places as she used to work there 7 years ago. Although she is small -as she mentioned several times- she could make herself heard and seen and she was the perfect guide. Her knowledge in history and archaeology is only overshined by her great spirit and atitudine. Also, she has a great smile! Thanks, Roberta for the cool experience on such a hot day!

It was really great, the organization was perfect, the guide Antonio was great and gave us a better understanding of the history of this extraordinary site.

In my case, the best part of the activity was the murals and that the paintings were well preserved. And with regard to booking with headout it was super easy and fast, very well organised and also very good guide!! The truth is super recommended!!

We enjoyed the experience and our guide was informative, we avoided the crowds. The meeting point instruction was clear (thanks to the Google map photo attached) and it was organized.

Our guide was very knowledgeable. He was great sbout checking in to make sure he wasn't going into too much detail. We learned many new things and this was our 3rd visit to Pompeii.

Our guide was perfect! She was an architect and everything she told us was underlined by the shine in her eyes, which let us feel, that this place is the most fantastic of the world. We'd immediately book another tour with her! The german was super as well and she was very patient and answered every single question we had! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Overall it was a great tour. The only gripe I may have (I am searching to find a legitimate one) was the crowds and long lines getting in. We waiting for an hour to get through the entry gate. Once inside, it was very fascinating to see the ruins. I didn't know it was such a large city... I recommend this. Roberta was a great guide!! Super fun.

The guide was excellent – professional and pleasant. The tour was fascinating. The meeting point was in a shaded area on the second floor of the train station, but unfortunately, there was no clear signage to help locate it easily.

I loved the private guided tour. The guide had so much information and was so funny. Really enjoyed everything about the tour

The German-speaking guide was excellent and extremely interesting and entertaining. After a two-hour guided tour, we stayed in Pompeii for a few more hours - a fantastic experience to stroll through an ancient city. A visit is highly recommended - as well as sun protection and good shoes! :-)

I thought the guide was great! Cheerful and particularly precise about what she was telling us, she recounted in detail and was able to answer questions.

I did the Pompeii guided tour on Monday 19 May, Our Guide Giuseppe was fabulous - he was obviously passionate about roman history and passed on his knowledge in a friendly, fun manner.

This makes no sense, so I see no point in buying tickets online...

It's so easy! The agency is right next to the bus station. Except that we didn't have the maps (impossible to download). So we walked around and asked. We finally found it, but we'd forgotten our identity cards! So we paid a cash deposit of 100 euros. Our daughters brought us 1 photo of our passports. Phew! For the entrance. A very friendly young French-speaking lady at reception gave us back our deposit at the end. The audio in the form of a cell phone geolocated us, so it was very practical for the visit. Very good😀

Great day. We learned so much about the history of Pompei.

Fantastic visit, great hitory, excellent guides

The experience was good. The attendants were helpful

Interesting to see how the Romans lived 2000 years ago

The ticket collection point was difficult to find. The child's free ticket had to be collected at the entrance (queuing...)

It was a bit confusing that you had to go to 2 different ticket stations to get the QR code to enter.

When I got there at the end I upgraded to visit everything. This (I had already guessed at the end) but it is not really clear what you see and what you don't see, since for example THE VILLA OF MYSTERI is mentioned nice things to see and then not to see. Otherwise, the visit was great

I lost more time than I gained by buying the tickets in advance! The tickets are not sent to you by email, which would actually make the most sense! No, you have to walk to a travel agency (near the Porta Marina entrance) before entering, get a slip of paper and the audio guides there and then queue at the entrance again! With the slip of paper you then get the correct admission tickets at the entrance. There was no quick entry, we still had to queue. After visiting the excavations, we had to walk back to the travel agency to return the audio guides, even though we had parked somewhere else! None of this should have been necessary! Could have been much better organized. Next time I'll get the tickets directly at the entrances, it would have been even cheaper!

The meeting point indicated in the e-mail is not just 40.748,14.481 . The tickets do not give direct access to the park. You have to change at the cash desk with a normal queue. Easier to buy our tickets on the spot! Cheaper and time-saving.

Much higher ticket price than you would pay at the facility, there is no opportunity to take advantage of the reduced price for 18-24 year olds which you can very well do at other sites

Volume of device was so low I couldn't hear anything at the highest setting, not worth booking this service. Guide software was poor.

The guide was fantastic. We had a very interactive tour with great insights about the site and feel that we understand a bit better the complexity of Pompei. The group was small and we had a lot of fun together. Overall great experience.

It was really great, the organization was perfect, the guide Antonio was great and gave us a better understanding of the history of this extraordinary site.

The tour was absolutely amazing. Our archeologist guide Teresa was phenomenal. Her knowledge and passion for Pompeii was contagious. She talked the history, the people, and when walking around painted a picture of how this ancient civilisation operated. We learnt tonnes of cool things about the buildings, excavations and saw everything that was open on the tour. Also learnt about the people, the volcano and how the 1000 bodies were found and why they may have remained on Pompeii. I hadn't heard about the villa of mysteries and this was a super valuable experience as well. To see an excavation site being worked on was super cool and to see the frescos on the walls was amazing. Highly recommend this tour. Super informative and interesting. Thanks again to Teresa who was the absolute best. Could have listened to her talk for hours about Pompeii.

In my case, the best part of the activity was the murals and that the paintings were well preserved. And with regard to booking with headout it was super easy and fast, very well organised and also very good guide!! The truth is super recommended!!

Although it was very crowded our guide expertly got us into places where we could see and gave us excellent and interesting commentary and he was fun!

The interesting explanations of the guide.

Our guide had amazing story telling skills, she covered around 30-40% of the site but covered all major part of it.

It was really informative and interesting. We had an entertaining and friendly tour guide

Pompei guided tour with Roxanne 2 hours

Our guide was good. Crowds were huge. But it was alright.

Everything was perfect. Punctual and attentive. Fully recommendable

Our visit at Pompei site was great. Our guide Michele ( archeologist ) made our day just perfect! Highly recommend it

An amazing place. So much to see.

Roberta was a brilliant guide - super friendly, knowledgeable and managed our group well. We definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Pompeii for two hours with a guide. And the transfer to Pompeii from Naples and from Pompeii to Naples was very prompt, handy and simple - just be sure to show up to the transfer on time as they leave right on time!

Last minutes changes put ne in a bit of a rush. Appreciate that they accomodate and wait for my arrival to start. Micheal the guide/archeologist was a fountain of knowledge, he made it all well worth it. Both Pompeii and Ercolano are well worth visiting.

Very good, Well arranged and a very knowledgable guide. Glad to recommend.

Our tour guide Gennaro was excellent and made the day an easy and memorable experience. His knowledge and enthusiasm regarding the history of the historical sites was excellent and maintained throughout the day. Gennaro answered everyone's questions and was truly professional. He really bought the sites to life!

The guides were excellent. Special mention to Antonella who went through a lot of trouble to get me on the right tour. The company had originally put me on the wrong tour and she ensured that I got a place in the right one. I would have been very disappointed otherwise.

Vincenzo was really interesting and passionate, it was really interesting! I recommend the most the combo Pompei+Herculanum, it was worth it!

Great trip. Clear instructions all day with timings. Easy transfer from Naples and between the sites. Antonio our guide was fantastic - loved his enthusiasm through our tour. It was busy but he knew the places to go to give us opportunity to see everything If you go in summer please bear in mind it's very hot and a lot of walking! Take hats / sun umbrellas. Take a re fillable bottle as plenty of fountains around the sites

Very well organized transport to and from Pompei. Francesco, our driver a fantastic nice guy who keeps an incredibly high level of service. The guide Jolanta kept a high and good level.

A very interesting story, a professional guide, a good organization.

There was no communication between the driver and the tour guide. We received a phone call telling us to go back to the driver, even though the guided tour was not yet finished. Additionally, the guide in Pompeii did not show us the most important sights. He focused mostly on architecture and brothels, rather than providing a comprehensive overview of the volcanic eruption and its impact on the population. I had expected a tour of the city to focus more on the historical context and the tragedy of the event.

The driving was perfect. The guiding was fun and everything perfect apart from that the guide went forward at one time with only half of the group. Luckily it was possible to call one of those who left with her to find out where to go! What we didn't like is that the tour was advertised to start with a pick up at 7:30 but didn't start until 55 minutes later. We only got to know that the tour was to start at 8:30 when another group was picked up from the same company around 8:10. After waiting 40 minutes.

The entire experience was great! We were picked up by bus, got to see Pompeii and Vesuvius, got something good to eat along the way and were supported by our great guide Daniel and our busdriver. Daniel was lot's of fun and explained a lot of interesting historical and local facts to us about Neaples and our destinations. Thank you, I would definitly recommend it +1

Our visit to Pompei and Herkulaneum was truly amazing, as we had an incredible tour guide who turned out to be also a professional archaeologist. Michael made the trip interesting and fun. Our driver Pasquale got us perfectly on time back to Naples centre!

The guide to Pompeii was very tidious. Her english was not so good. Most of the time, she spoke on unimportant details. this made the tour in Pompeii very unplesent.

The tour was absolutely amazing. Our archeologist guide Teresa was phenomenal. Her knowledge and passion for Pompeii was contagious. She talked the history, the people, and when walking around painted a picture of how this ancient civilisation operated. We learnt tonnes of cool things about the buildings, excavations and saw everything that was open on the tour.

Highly recommend this tour. Super informative and interesting. Thanks again to Teresa who was the absolute best. Could have listened to her talk for hours about Pompeii.

The experienced and funny tour guide (Anna Sorrento) shared a lot of good information about the city, culture, observations of the past and funfacts

It was an incredible experience! incredibly interesting! Our guide, Anna Sorrento was very good and knowledgeable!

The knowledge of Alessandra and his fluent english

Antonio was amazing, he adjusted our tour to accommodate our needs. The experience was perfect and made us all feel more knowledgeable about Pompeii and daily Roman life. After we finished our time together we were able to explore on our own and use what we learned.

a great tour, the guide who made us the visit was very attentive and committed, making passionate explanations that made us have one of the best experiences of this vacation.

We had a lovely guide called Francesca who was very knowlegeabe and passionate about archeology and Pompeii. Would absolutely recommend this company. Our visit was fantastic.

Super friendly guide who was very happy to tailor the tour to the places we really wanted to see. Knowledgeable and happy to answer questions we had about Pompeii. Really positive experience

The absolute expertise of the guide Rossa !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The tour was fantastic. The guide Rossana was attentive, engaging and knowledgeable. A strong recommendation!

The guide was lovely and very knowledgeable she made Pompeii come to life. And explained things very clearly well worth every penny I would fully recommend a personal guided tour.

Rosana, an archaeologist, is an excellent and professional Pompeii guide. She showed us the ancient city, which was buried by Vesuvius almost 2,000 years ago, in an exciting, entertaining and knowledgeable way. We will definitely be back, as we were very impressed by the excavations, you need more than one day to see everything and the excavations have not yet been completed.

Top tour with top guide (Mimma). We were very satisfied.

Our guide Vito was so knowledgeable, his English was brilliant, and he really brought Pompei to life for us.

Exceptional site and exceptional guide, thank you Federica.

Thanks to Rosario for this fascinating visit, and to her ancestors too, of course.

We learned more in the first 30 min about pompeii than we wouldve learned with an audio guide in 4 hours

Frederica, our guide was amazing! We had a great visit, and highly recommend the tour.

Our guide was brilliant. Absolutely new the detail you would expect from an archiologist. Conducted visit at our pace whilst ensuring we saw key parts. Going early gave us more space as well.

Super Guide (Roberta). Extraordinary knowledge of the site and its history. She made the visit very lively and informative.

Nelo and Luigi were the best. Nelo was funny and very knowledgeable and Luigi got us to our destination safely.

The guide was very resourceful and knowledgeable. We found out new interesting things about Pompei and it's one of a kind experience to see the ruins in person.

The problem we encountered was that the whole group (30 people) had to wait for the identity of people under 25 (2 people) to be checked, as well as the free ticket for 1 person.

Tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly.

The travel was moeading, was not me tip ed a train trip

The guide was informative and pleasant. The audio was necessary due to the large size of the group. The group size was too large and entry was chaotic. The promise that we would skip the line was false. It took more than a hour to reach the entrance and only half of the group made it through. We purchased the option to go to Vesuvius but were too delayed by the chaos to make it. People not in our group were pressing upon us. It was dangerously crowded. At the end of the day the train line had a mechanical problem and over 1000 people had accumulated at the station. No one could tell us how to get back to Sorrento.

An unforgettable excursion to Pompeii and Vesuvius Our excursion to Pompeii and Vesuvius was a real highlight of our trip - a perfect combination of impressive history, breathtaking nature and warm company. The guided tour of Pompeii with Vincente was simply fantastic. He guided us through the fascinating ruins of the ancient city with a great deal of passion and an enormous wealth of knowledge. You could feel his passion for history in every explanation. Vincente managed to bring times long past to life - exciting, understandable and always with a smile. After a short drive, we continued on to Vesuvius. Here, too, we were well accompanied - tour guide Mimi delighted us with exciting facts about the volcano. Her stories were informative, entertaining and gave us a great insight into the nature and history of the region. Once we reached the top, we were rewarded with a spectacular view over Naples - simply breathtaking! A big compliment also goes to our coach driver Gigi. He drove us through tight bends and the sometimes challenging road traffic with absolute calm, aplomb and a safe driving style. Thanks to him, we felt completely at ease and safe during the entire trip. All in all, this day was perfectly organized and will remain in our memories for a long time to come. Many thanks to Vincente, Mimi and Gigi - you made this trip something very special!

Pompei very interesting and Vesuvius cool but far too large a group. Tour guide entertaining, you have to like... For me too drawn out, almost obliged to eat there, I don't like it. I am generally more of an individual tourist.

Our tour guide for Pompeii was great! She gave us so much information and you can tell she had a passion for the site. Merica pur coordinator and guide to the site was fun and kept us all in order. I would definitely recommend this trip.

i liked the guide at Pompeii. He was quite knowledgeable and personable. But the day was pouring rain and it was a bit hard to navégate the streets which were actually flowing creeks. Hard to see much in the rain. I'm going back again tomorrow and hoping for better weather.

The site was amazing! The staff was so friendly and helpful! I've taken several tours on my vacation to Italy, but I wasn't overly captured and pulled into the history of this amazing place as I have been with other tours such as of the Coliseum, Sistine Chapel, and other sites. The tour guide we had for Pompeii was knowledgeable, but quite repetitive with filling dead space with pointing out things that had already been noted and explained such as store fronts, frescos, and fountains, and such... instead of speaking more on the history of the time and framing out the history of events going on during that time. I still enjoyed myself as I didn't know much about Pompeii and Roman culture and would've been kind of lost wandering around by myself. If someone was just looking for general knowledge on this tour I would recommend, but if they're looking for a deep historical guide, I would advise them to look somewhere else.

It was so easy straight forward because the instructions were very clear. The actual trip was excellent all round.

Firstly excursion was advertised as minibus and implied would be small group. Did not sign up for 48 people. Recommended optional lunch was very poor. The time at Vesuvius was insufficient to reach the top making for a rushed and stressful day out.

The tour was great and really enjoyed visiting Pompeii. As the site is so large - having a map of the site prior to arrival ( perhaps passed out on the bus) would have helped. The tour route could also be marked out on such a map, We would have spent more of our time at the site and not outside over the lunch period - perhaps offer this as an option.

Excellent tour guide, very informative. This trip was a great way to see Pompeii and Vesuvius in a day if you are short on time. The lunch in the middle was ok, nothing very exciting. I could have done with just one more hour at Pompeii to see a little more too, but overall a really positive experience

Christian may be the best bus driver in the world! My guy has got skills, not only did he get us there and back I was so impressed I just had to tip him 20 Euro for a safe travel day! Mara was incredible, friendly and outgoing, she was extremely knowledgeable not only about destinations but sites along the way. She enhanced the ride by providing us music that was born from the locations she was telling us about giving us a deeper appreciation for the entire country of Italy and not just our paid destination spots! I would definitely recommend these two together if you're lucky enough to get them!

Sasha was a great tour guide! I really liked him and the gentleman driving our bus. I do wish that the event at Pompeii lasted longer, I would honestly have traded time at the 4 or 5 stops to spend more time at Pompeii. It felt like every stop was a predatory way to lead us into shops that were likely paying you folks to take us there and spend money. I did not enjoy the vibes of being taken to a jewelry shop without any forewarning. Once again I really enjoyed our tour guide, he was funny, intelligent, and sentimental/ respectful of the dead. I just wish the tour company "I <3 Rome" was better. Cheers, hopefully you take this as critical and not derogatory.

The Trip is designed in a bad way. Transfer to Sorrento takes a long time so finally you have only 1 hour at the city which is mostly used for the lunch (only opportunity to eat) then heading back towards Pompei takes another hours. As a result you have only about 2 hours for visiting Pompei (which, when you do not know the place, is hardly enough for even a quick tour), and almost no time to walk around Sorrento. Perhaps starting trip a hour earlier would give some additional time and probably help avoiding morning traffic jams when leaving city.

9 hours inside a bus. 50 minutes for a Quick Lunch in Sorrento where theres nothing to do in that time and 2 hours for a fast visit to Pompei. Not a goof way to organize a visit like this. Not doing it again.

The transport to activity ratio was not acceptable. The trip to Sorrento was in our opinion unnecessary as our aim was visiting Pompeii - i.e. we drove in the wrong direction for too long. We would have preferred more time in Pompeii as we ended up only having two hours and our guide had initially from the beginning informed us that we would have four hours.

I did an extensive chat with your people WHILE on this tour. Your info said we would have 3 hrs in Pompeii; contracted tour operator said 1.5 hrs only. We waited far too long for people in Sorrento (45 mins before leaving w/o them) and then had to wait for the guide to return at Pompeii (45 mins) although he told us to be back at a certain time. So misguided. Never got "skip the line" tix, although prepaid. After doing extensive research for the tour with the most time in Pompeii were we were both extremely disappointed!!

Very bad and boring trip we didn't enjoyed

We have fantastic time visiting all the places organising everything online was easy and no problem great to be picked up and dropped back to city the attractions were amazing also the scenery and weather which helped the experience too 👍100%

We choose the tour solely because it stated 3 hours in Pompeii. In total the stop was 2 hours and 15 min was gone because the guide had to collect the tickets so we ran around in 1.45 min trying to see some highlights my husband had wanted to see for over 40 years so quite a disappointment.

Very good organization, bus on time and clean, nice bus driver. One stop each on the way there and back. We had only booked the bus trip with entrance tickets and still got good tips from the tour guide on board, as well as during the trip in English and Spanish. We hired an audio guide on site for 10 euros and off we went. About 3.5 hours on site!

Excellent trip, the guide transmitted knowledge during the trip about the places we went through. The driver was a very good driver. We will repeat

Highly recommend this tour! The bus ride to and from was smooth and the staff are very kind. Samuel was the leader for my bus/tour and he was amazing. Stopped at a giftshop/cafe when we left Rome and on or way back. Very friendly and helpful. I got stuck in the store in Pompeii when we were supposed to leave and he went back to the site just to get me so I could find the bus and not be left! We had about four hours of time to walk around (I did not do a tour guide, I walked around freely) and I didn't see everything but it is a huge city so it's not a big deal. Very good experience and zero complaints!

Plenty of time to explore the site... We hadn't booked lunch or an audioguide, but it was flexible and we could add those extras on the day. Our guide was so friendly and helpful. We loved it!
