Great way to experience the ruins - Our guide was very thorough and explained the history very well. She was very knowledgeable. It was a good tour and very enjoyable. A good way to explore Pompeii without a huge price tag. There is a lot of walking on large cobblestones. Not for those who are unsteady or with bad knees. Wear a hat and sunscreen for hot days. Bring some euros to tip your guide. It’s hard work and a lot of talking.

The guide was knowledgeable and entertaining - We had a 2 hour tour with a group of 30 people. Our guide Ana was a joy to listen to! We got to all the highlights and learned the story along the way.

The most helpful tour operator I've ever come across - I have to see that Inna herself is the most important part of this review. When it became apparent that there was a problem with the booking I had made, Inna got in touch with me and managed to resolve everything so our visit could go ahead. Thank you Inna. The Pompeii tour itself was exactly as described. Transport to and from with a 2 hour, small group, guided tour of the site. To be honest, you could easily spend a whole day at Pompeii and I still doubt you'd see all of it.

Pompeii is worth the visit - Pompeii was super cool and our guide was informative and fun. I only did not give 5 stars because the meet up point information was confusing and led to a lot of stress for us.

We paid extra and did not receive. - The tour was informative, but too short. We spent 5 hours walking after the tour did not go to other major sites due to time, We will have to come back.
