From Rome: Pompeii and Naples or Vesuvius Day Trip

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!

First of all, thank you for this day. Even though it's over 600km from Rome, it was worth every effort. Seeing Pompeii is a highlight. Superbly preserved, you get a wonderful insight into Roman life. Via Appia Antica is an orphan compared to the roads here. The paintings are also very well preserved. The funniest thing we found was the 90 fast food stations for local residents. At first we were worried that we would only see a small corner in the two hours. But our local guide had a great route and we were able to see a lot. Vesuvius was much more stressful afterwards. You are chased up the mountain on a full stomach and have to be back down at a certain time. I can say one thing. We're not the least fit, but it was close. We were two minutes late. One criticism in passing. The restaurant for the toilet break is outrageously overpriced. From time to time the trip feels like a coffee run. But let's put that to one side, you can decide against it and not buy anything. The day was great and we would book it again and again.

Very attentive guide. Enrico was charismatic and spoke Spanish easily. The company was on time and the bus was comfortable. The guide in Pompeii was also attentive and very informative.

Very nice and knowledgeable guide Francesca, she was very helpful and everything went according to the plan. Pompeii are an absolute must see, a little too far from Rome but still manageable

Everything was exceptional - tour leader, tour guide, driver, lunch, but I was really disapointed in only panoramic tour of Naples because that wasn't mentioned. I asumed it would be at least a short walk through the city, as it was stated on the website that we can 'enjoy shops and restaurants'.

I want to thank the guide Marcelo, an excellent treatment and the driver Emiliano, as well as the rest of the team, a great professionalism of all of them. The organization was perfect, very happy. Next year my parents will go and they will do the excursion with you. A big hug and thank you very much for everything.

I thought Pompeii was good and I would have liked to have had longer. It felt like we'd just touched on the story and didn't get to see any tombs apart from one. Also I thought we were going to walk up Vesuvius from the bottom to top not be driven up there to walk the last 20 minutes. Also we had to wait for our guide to translate into Spanish at each section because we had a couple who were Spanish whilst the rest of us were English. I'm sure we would have seen a lot more had this not been the case.

Incredible experience visiting Pompeii, we had a decent amount of time to explore the ruins on our own as we didn't have the guided tour. The guide (Marcus) who took us from Rome to Pompeii and back was very friendly, talkative and knowledgable, on the journey to Pompeii telling us about the history of the area and places we were going past. At our brief stop off in Naples he came over to me and chatted about Vesuvius and the surrounding area pointing things out to me.

This Pompii & Mount Vesuvius tour started dot on time. All along our guide Laura was awsome. She was exprienced guide very friendly and professional. She took care of each passenger on board. The driver Dan was also lovely. The tour was organised well with frequent toilet breaks and covered all what was in the itinerary.

We booked Rome to Pompei and Vesuvio experience for the family of five. Everything went as scheduled. Our coordinator during the trip mentioned several interesting facts about Rome. In Pompei we had our own guide, same while climbing Vesuvio. BTW, our bus stopped by the shortest path to the top which was very convinient. I sincerely recommend this experience!

Our guide was great. He was young and excited and his English was very good. Manuelo (?) was ideal to represent your company to a foreigner. It was a very full itinerary and the included lunch was delicious and FILLING!

The Vesúvio tour was really good, and the guide was attentive. The Pompeii tour itself was good, but the guide was not a really good English speaker (we could understand the major part, but sometimes it was not possible to understand her). Eduardo - the general guide - was really sweet with us!

Marco was a very entertaining and helpful guide. Was more interested in getting into the Pompeii tour than being shown the shell carving but was interesting all the same.

Everything went well and according to plan. Our Leader Guide was very friendly and thoughtful, always wanting to know if everything was alright with everyone - there was a older lady in our group that had issues dealing with the heat and tiredness, he made sure that everything went smoothly, both for that lady and for the rest of the group (safety and time management wise). He gave us very interesting information regarding relevant key points of the tour during our bus ride. At our stop at the marvellous and enormous ancient city of Pompey, we were accompanied by a lovely local Guide, who was very informative as well as very funny. After the visit to Pompey we went to lunch to a designated restaurant, the food was ok, nothing special but included. The drinks were not included as advertised, however the big glass bottle of water that we asked for came already opened and by its awful taste it was clearly water that it as been refilled and was probably store under the sun in a plastic container. Moreover the drinks were clearly overpriced. We stop drinking it and requested a new plastic bottle which was sealed. For the Vesuvius visit, we changed quickly and smoothly to a smaller and comfortable panoramic bus with a clear rooftop (provided shade). During the ride up to the Volcano with listen to an Audio Guide provided in 8 languages. After climbing 1000m up the mountain by bus, we got of the bus and made a brief hike with another local guide. He was very nice and informative, however had some trouble speaking in English - although it was more or less easy to understand. Our final stop before returning to Rome was a very quick visit to a Coral/Camos jewelry workshop/factory/store were they make pieces of jewellery with metal such as gold and silver combined with seashells - very pretty and especially expensive. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

Jonathan our guide was amazing, thank you for be a amazing guidances, he explains everything very clear and we don't have any problems. I recommend 100 %.

Pompeii, a must. Our guides, Cristina and the local one, were magnificent, efficient, very kind, patient; 10 out of 10. The Vesuvius experience was a little short because, although it did not consist of going up to the crater, the explanations of the local guide left much to be desired. Still, it is well worth it to go up in the windowless bus with a driver as attentive as the one we had.

What I liked most about the head out ticket experience was the ease in which the transaction happened. It was very easy.

Literally loved it!!! The guide was so lovely, lunch was exquisite and everyone was very accomodating and kind. Would highly recommend to anyone and everyone travelling!

On the trip to the Colosseum the guide was very helpful, in pompells the guide was more helpful in English than in Spanish, the guide at the Vatican was very helpful although he did not speak Spanish well.

The bus was comfortable and made it easy to get from Rome to Pompeii for a long day trip. Our guide was informative. We chose the no tour option once we reached Pompeii as we prefer to explore on our own. That worked really nicely for us.
