Excellent

The tour was amazing and our guide Cosimo made the experience even better. He also recommended a restaurant in Rome where we had the best meal we had in Rome. The guide at Pompeii was very knowledgeable and also made history fun. Highly recommend the tour.

Great

Firstly it's a small group which is excellent. The amalfi was breathtaking and beautiful to get around but be prepared it is very Touristy and very busy with small narrow walk ways. The shops sell really beautiful things you can't find in other countries and the beach is lovely for a swim. Pompei was the highlight, I wish we had longer because there is so much to see and do. We had a different guide specifically for Pompei and she was a wealth of knowledge you could tell she was passionate and it makes you feel passionate. The actual tour guide from the company was very nice but didn't add anything to the day. Essentially just a chaperone but an English speaking bus driver could do the same. Overall it's a long but rewarding day.

This tour was amazing. Positano is a must visit as is Pompeii and this tour combines two great locations, taking care of the drive to Campania Region and providing two wonderful guides in Andy, who accompanied us for the day & Marianna, the archaeologist guide in Pompeii. & Paola our driver ensured our safety every part of the drive. Andy is extremely knowledgeable, with the utmost professionalism, ensuring he provided the perfect amount of fascinating history to us on our drive to, and at, locations. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Rome and who wants to make the most of time available.

Great tour. The day is a bit long, but you stop every 1-2 hours. Pompei guide was very knowledgeable. Bus is a bit cold so bring a sweatshirt.

FAQs

Is this tour wheelchair accessible?

No. Unfortunately, due to site restrictions we cannot accommodate wheelchairs on this tour. Guests should be prepared for a moderate level of physical activity, including standing for extended periods and climbing stairs, which may not be suitable for travelers with certain health conditions or mobility limitations.

What if the weather is bad (rain, snow, hail, etc.) on the day of my tour?

Our tours run rain or shine so please dress for the elements. We also ask you to please remember hats and sunscreen if you are taking this tour in the summer as it might be very hot.

If I bring a swimming suit can I go for a dip in the sea?

Yes! Although be aware that there is not always a lifeguard on duty in the areas you might want to swim so you will be getting in the water at your own risk.

Can I use this tour as a transfer to Positano?

Unfortunately our transport vans do not have enough space to accommodate luggage so it's not possible to use this tour as a transfer to Positano from Rome. Moreover, on some occasions the tour stops in Positano before Pompeii and does not return to the town afterwards.

Is lunch included?

No. Your guide will give you a few great recommendations for lunch spots and give you plenty of time, but where and what you eat is up to you.

Is Pompeii accessible to people in wheelchairs?

The streets of Pompeii have never been repaved or smoothed over so much of the city is nearly impossible to navigate for those with mobility impairments. If you use a wheelchair there is a special route for you, so please contact our customer service department for details.

Can I bring a bag with me into Pompeii?

Small bags and purses are allowed inside Pompeii.
