Best way to see the sights quickly, but be prepared for the Paris traffic which is very slow moving at times.

My Review

Villa d'Este and Hadrian's Villa are both spectacularly beautiful. The tour was well organised and the guide was great. My only complaint is that a full day tour would be better.

Naples and Pompeii Day Trip from Rome

Rome, Italy

My Rating
4 star rating: Recommended

My Review

Generally, very enjoyable and well organised. Pompeii is facinating, and the local guide was very knowledgable and entertaining. The tour of the cameo factory is not extensive or particularly informative, but you do get an opportunity to see, and buy, some beautiful jewelry. The included lunch was a pleasant surprise. I was expecting sandwiches, it turned out to be a very enjoyable three course meal in a quite nice restaurant in New Pompeii. The only real downside was the tour of Naples. Basically, it was a drive through Naples on the tour bus accompanied by some, not overly engaging, commentary. I would have rather skipped the Napels "tour" and had more time at Pompeii.

Great guide - knowledgeable, personable, and funny. I just wish the tour was a little longer, just an hour or so, to allowed more time to explore the galleries.
