Had a great and very enthousiastic guide (Teresa was her name i thought). The group was not to big and the tour was just long enough. She explained a lot about the daily life and also the archeologic aspect of things. I would certainly recommend this tour, it was very interesting! PS: without a tour I think you'll get lost in Pompei, because its actually quite a big city.

This tour was very educational! Teresa was a great guide and very knowledgeable! We really enjoyed ourselves and didn’t want the tour to end!
