Our trip was fantastic. Mara our guide was lovely and very entertaining and knowledgeable. The Bus was clean and comfortable and our driver Christian was amazing on the Sorrento roads. Our guide for Pompeii was also entertaining and knowledgeable.

The guide Sascha was really knowledgeable about Pompeya and the areas surrounding it since he is a local, and made the whole experience fun. He gave a great insight on everything and made me learn about all these ancient civilizations and more recent developments. He was the best part about the tour. It was a nice experience to go to Sorrento. I now plan on going there for longer next time since It was short. loved the lemon gelato, lemonade and how beautiful It was. Will definitely stay there and get to know the surrounding areas. Worth the money I paid.

This review comes in two parts. Firstly, the tour itself was fantastic. Marcelo was ready and waiting at the pick up point in Rome, he was very friendly, informative about local landmarks as we drove through Italy and the coach itself was comfortable. When we got to Sorrento, the local guide we picked up was also fantastic, very funny, friendly and knowledgeable about Sorrento and Pompeii. However, this was not the tour we originally booked, we booked a longer, 4 hour self guiding tour at Pompeii with no Sorrento trip. It wasn’t until the day before we were told that had changed via WhatsApp message, to only having 90 minutes at Pompeii with no explanation as to why. A little disappointing, but I cannot fault the tour guides, they were excellent.
