1. Very pricey; it did not feel like a private tour as we rode around in a taxi. 2. Driver sweet but not focused on our tour 3. Expected tour guide to speak English and not translate thru phone. 4. Tour guide (Julia) at Pompei site was fantastic. She was so knowledgeable. In Dublin we booked similar type of tour and it was the difference between night and day. We have used Viator over the years many times and this was disappointing

Personal driver and tour narrator were great. Pickup near our hotel since traffic was not allowed in front of hotel. Visuvius and Pompeii were more than expected. Tour was private only for four people. Miriam was such a great guide at Visuvius. She was absolutely the best.
Our driver Gennaro was very professional. Great communication on where to meet and greeted us with a very warm welcome. Awesome local knowledge. Definately do the winery lunch, the red wine is amazing. The tour guide of Pompeii was very knowledgeable. Definitely recommend this tour, request Gennaro as your driver for a really good time.

Hiking to the top of Vesuvius is amazing. And definitely go to a winery for lunch! Our guide was excellent.
We loved our tour of Vesuvius and Pompeii! Our driver Giuseppe arrived early and navigated through Naples like a pro. So glad I didn’t have to drive! We had a great time hiking the rim before all the other buses got there. Giuseppe knew we wanted to spend as much time in Pompeii as possible so he found us a quick pizza in town (and spritz for me) before our visit. Pompeii is amazing and our guide did her best to duck and weave through the crowds to give us the best possible experience. Props for making this a great day! Thank you to Sofia for handling the logistics and our requests!
This is an exceptional day trip with a visit to the top of Mount Vesuvius then a guided experience to the Pompeii ruins. We were also treated to a winery lunch as an optional extra which was a lot of fun . Our driver Dino was great . He managed the time scheduling of the day really well and was a wealth of knowledge regarding the historical events. Naples is a very busy city and this was a relaxing stress free way to experience the Mt Vesuvius and Pompeii. Communication was excellent. Recommend .
This was the best way to experience Pompeii and Vesuvius - our driver Dino was very informative and the van was comfortable. It was nice to arrive at Vesuvius early in the morning before the crowds and a private guide through Pompeii was very helpful. We learned so much more than the first time we went without a guide.
The entire day was more than expected. Our driver, Gennaro, was excellent. Knowledgeable, kind, and a skilled driver, he made our day stress free. Vesuvius was awe inspiring and the view of the volcano, the Bay of Naples, City and surrounding area breathtaking. We were driven to the Bosco de Medici Winery for excellent wine and a delicious midday meal and then on to Pompeii. A dream come true. Our guide answered our many questions, imparted a vast amount of knowledge, and made this a most memorable experience
We booked the private driver (Dino - amazing, warm, and the nicest man you will ever meet) through Sofia and had a tour guide (Antonio) for Pompeii. Afterwards, Dino drive us over to the Bosco do Medici winery for lunch. We loved our sommelier Matteo. He was engaging and very funny Truly an AMAZING experience and worth every penny! ❤️❤️
Picked up at our Almafi hotel and drove to Vesuvius first. Dino was a great and informative driver. Very helpful in locating a great lunch near Pompeii. The tour guides at both Vesuvius and Pompeii were excellent.
We had the most wonderful time with Dino. He was full of information and he had a great voice. My family enjoyed spending the day with him. We had a great guide for Pompei. Sonia was amazing. She knew how to keep us away from the crowds. It was almost like we were there by ourselves. She was also very knowledgeable. The whole day was amazing. Great guides, great food, great wine, and the sites were wonderful. Thank you Dino for making us feel like family. Jenine
We were so happy with our experience. Our driver, Gennaro was so friendly and attentive and really went out of his way to make sure we had a great day, mount vesuvius was an amazing experience and not as bad of a climb as we had expected, and the tour around Pompeii was incredible, the tour guide was very friendly, funny and knowledgeable, we would definitely recommend!
Genarro was a great driver! Can highly recommend this tour if you want a private, relaxed experience.
Gennaro, our driver, was very friendly and informative. He drove us from Salerno to Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii. He shared stories of his life in Pompeii. Upon the return to Salerno he recommended restaurants and gelaterias to try. As we were later going to Calabria he also spoke highly of Tropea. He was concerned for our comfort throughout the day and made sure we were having a nice experience. Teresa, guide at Pompeii, was very knowledgeable. We had a great experience. It was so much better than trying to view the ruins by ourselves. We were amazed at how advanced the civilization was at the time prior to the first volcanic eruption.
Pompeii and its surrounding natural beauty as well as the train trip to Sorrento with the glimpse of the coast.
Tout était parfait: la montée du Vésuve tôt le matin, la visite de Pompéi avec juste assez de détails, le guide intéressant, le chauffeur sympathique et ponctuel!! Merci ☺️
