“The tour company was very unprofessional in the way they ran this tour. The tour was only 2 hours long. The tour company didn't start the tour until 10 minutes pass the start time, due to the coordinator dancing around. Then there was another delay due to the wispers not working correctly. This could of been fixed prior to the tour starting. Then the tour leader had the group lined up against a wall just inside the ruins for over 30 minutes for a lecture that could of be given while we were walking through the ruins. So, we ended up with and hour tour in the end.”

“This is a great way to visit Pompeii and Positano if you’re on a time crunch and want the experiences during your Rome trip. However, the whole thing felt very rushed and a little stressful. They push many reminders to get to the meeting point early, only to make you wait for the latest arrivals anyway and then rush you to the buses which are a few blocks away. The seats on the bus are tight - if you are tall or on the larger side they are not comfortable, your knees dig into the seat in front of you and there’s nowhere to rest your head since the seats…”
Guided Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius day trip from Rome with skip-the-line entry, optional crater hike or geologist walk, and pizza lunch.
“Tmstarting with the negatives. The travel is a bit of a slog, unavoidable when traveling so far but to be considered, the coach is not greatly comfortable but, again, to be expected when transporting 30 ish people for a 12 hour round trip. That said 100% utterly worth it for the history in pompeii alone. The tour guide was delightful and engaging The geologist walk was fascinating and ultimately made the trip worth it all on its own. The female geologist our group had ( forgotten her name ashamed to say) was brilliant insightful and excellent, clearly passionate. If you are at all interested in volcanoes and the science behind…”

“Was super great! I just wanted a ride to Pompeii and Entry, the ticket price was worth both of those things. That is pretty much what this experience was, you did get a guide through Pompeii, but it’s nothing super unique at all. Pompeii is 100% worth it and a taxi or bus would be so expensive or inconvenient. So 100% recommend this”
