“Our guide, Giovanni and driver, Carmine did an excellent job with our tour. They were extremely knowledgeable and accommodating to our requirements. We did feel the time spent in Pompeii would have been much better if we had more time at the ruins and if we had a guide that stayed with us while in the ruins. We were given a complex map and very general instructions and were left on our own. We didn’t get to see the petrified people at all due to the short time we were there and the time we spent navigating through the huge complex. However we definitely recommend visiting the ruins.”

From Naples cruise port, visit Pompeii with a local guide, eat a supplied pizza, pasta, or salad lunch, then hike Mount Vesuvius to its crater. The day runs about seven hours, but traffic and group transfers can stretch it. Rita, Rosa, Michael, and Mikael have received especially warm praise.

“Group was too large - we would be in a single line and at the end the headphones would disconnect from the tour guide Maria. We missed many key points because we were too far back. The meeting point was not clear and the bus was late. They did make accommodations to take our lunch to go or we would have missed Vesuvius entirely. We had 40 minutes at Vesuvius which was not enough time to get to the top.”
