Myself and my partner were guided around the site earlier this week by Sasa, who was an excellent tour guide. Sasa’s stories and insights brought to life the history of Pompeii. It was a very enjoyable tour, even more so given the small group size which allowed us to ask as many questions as we liked. Highly recommended!

What about old Pompeii ... it is unique and you must visit it at least once in your life. Speaking of the organization, I am very satisfied as they gave rain at the established time but the agency chosen for us made itself available to change hours in order to avoid the hours of rain. Highly recommended

We booked the 3 hour afternoon tour with Sasa, which started at 3:30pm. Great time to see Pompeji because at the end, we were almost by ourselves. Sasa is a great storyteller and brings Pompeji back to live. He is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic and he has shown us hidden places off the beaten path.
