The tour of Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius was amazing!! I would highly recommend it, but it would have been better to do it as a day trip from a base other than Naples.

We had an excellent guide who was very excited about Italy and its history. He was very knowledgeable about Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii and brought the history to life. This was a very enjoyable day for us.

We had no hotel in Naples because we had come in from Rome that morning. A pickup place was given to us that was very easy to locate. We were picked up by a great driver who, despite traffic jams, got us to Pompeii. The coordination got even better when we met up with the rest of the group and our fantastic guide. He knew the place very well and gave us a good feel for Pompeii without boring the life out of us. I feel it would have been quite a waste of time to walk through the ruins without having some expert advise to figure the place out. After a lovely meal we were whisked of to Vesuvius. Climbing the last bit after lunch was tough! But with the guide encouraging us onwards and forwards, we did it! We wished we could have spent more time at the crater instead of rushing back. Thank you, Viator, for making this ordinary excursion an extraordinary one!

The guide was really good. He was knowledgeable and funny. The tour group was small, 10 people, so it was easy to hear the guide. I would definitely book this again.

We had great service and great guides. We needed a guide to explain things and to ensure we didn't miss the best bits. As Pompeii is so big, the three hours was just not enough to see it all, but it did give us a taste of the place. We will save the rest of Pompeii for our next visit. It would have been a good idea to swap the tours around and do Vesuvius first. The meal at lunch in Pompeii was a great big filling margarita pizza, and the drive up Vesuvius is a bit of a tummy churner because of all the hairpin bends. So we got out feeling a bit queasy.
