One of the most captivating archaeological sites in the world, Pompeii is a city frozen in time. The ancient Roman metropolis was sealed under a layer of volcanic stone by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in AD 79, which preserved it for millennia. Today, you can explore the ghostly ruins, including temples, baths, villas, and shops.
Sébastien was a wonderful guide. He provided thorough, thoughtful explanations to us and also suggested that we use our imagination to "see" the past. We also had an insightful conversation about human experience and the similarities of the past and present. I would highly recommend.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and set a good pace for a group that had kids and seniors. The transportation was comfortable and prompt. Cruisers, we had a pick up at the terminal exit. All in all, a great choice to see Pompeii.
First, we had a tough time finding a cab to go from Positano to Pompei. Emmanuel from the tour company called me as i was running late for the visit of late thursday. He reprogrammed me for the friday morning visit and he offered to pick us up at 7h45 in Positano. He did it and we very glad to have the opportunity to go. Most impressive visit.
Best to Google Pompeii and learn about the history before starting your tour. Our guide was Laura and she did an excellent job explaining everything during our tour. She spoke fluent English, was knowledgeable and most importantly, she was patient. After her tour you can wander the archeological site to get a greater experience if you wish.
Thanks Viator and Laura.
Our guide Alessandra was very knowledgeable and patient with our group of twenty. We were given headsets to hear her throughout the tour. The pace was good for a varied group of young and old. Amazing experience and crucial to experience it with a professional guide to maximize your visit…this site is enormous! Make sure to wear sturdy shoes.
Pickup from Salerno was accurate and on-time. The tour guide was excellent and provided great explanations of the different features of Pompeii. The tour was extensive and very interesting. We had to wait an extra 30 minutes for our ride back to Salerno after the tour and the company provided us with a free lunch for our patience which was very nice considering the wait time was short. All-in-all it was a fantastic experience and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Salerno.
We got a tour for 2 hrs when we got there and it was great! Fast and easy with viator pass ticket! We only paid 20 extra dollars for the tour! She wqs very good!
Our guide was very informative and entertaining. She knew the history and some little known facts. The tour ran a little long so we had to leave before it was actually over.
Gianluca is a terrific guide. He met us at the gate to Pompeii, and from 9 o’clock until a little after 11 AM, he filled us with so much wonderful information, answered so many questions, and he just knew and knew and knew about Pompeii and the Roman culture. He is the very best guideI think I’ve ever had— engaging, intelligent, humorous, and always willing to listen to questions, and answer them completely. I was very impressed, as was my husband. I would recommend this tour -1specifically with Gianluca —to anyone who truly wants to learn about the history, the culture and the significance of Pompeii.
