I loved Pompeii. To think so many people lived there ! Our guide was very pleasant. I was not so impressed with Naples, but the church we saw and the views were wonderful. I would not go to Naples without a guide, but with a guide, great!
If you're staying in Naples, then it's ok. If you're staying in Sorrento, then be prepared for a very tiring day. It's a 1-hour drive to Naples and then 3 minutes to Pompeii where you will spend most of the tour. Still, Pompeii was fantastic! Very, very interesting and worthwhile. Our tour guide was helpful and informative. However, she was not good at controlling her group. First they took us to a store where they sell corallo products and told us to have a look around. Some people left, others shopped so in the end we got lost and missed valuable time getting all gathered up again. Anyway, Pompeeii was really interesting. As far as Naples, we only had the chance to get in the Duomo. It would have been nice to get inside the Palazzo Reale and in some other sights. It was a good tour but very expensive and overpriced for what we got.
Good tour, guides knew their history. Could have spent longer in Pompeii ie could have been an extra half day. History in Naples an eye opener and very interesting.
The Naples part of this tour was not that interesting but Pompeii certainly was. The tour leader had a good knowledge of the facts of Pompeii. Perhaps the group could have been better organised because there were English and Spanish speaking people in the group so the leader had to say everything twice. It is a long day out from Sorrento even though it says Half Day. We were picked up from our hotel at 7.15am and it was 3.30 before we returned. Don't plan anything else for the day if you choose to do this tour.
Naples is terrible, Pompeii was boring.
Good guide - just not my cup of tea
