Great value for money . Although could really leave out the stop off at the jewellery shop ... everybody exhausted and frog marched off the bus to be pressurised into buying very expensive jewelry!

The guide (Manu) was amazing, very helpful during all the trip. The city of Pompeii is just fantastic, you can feel the ancient atmosphere there, and look all the valley from the Versuvio was the icing on the cake.
