Booked with the office near the train station, were promised pick up from our hotel. WhatsApp message in the evening saying the bus couldn't get to our hotel (narrow lanes) and giving a new pick up point a short distance away. I checked the link they sent me (this is the simplified version) and confirmed the road name. The link placed us halfway down this road where there was a car parking area so we waited there next morning. After 15 mins I rang the office and got someone who didn't at first seem to know what I was talking about, then told me that the bus was waiting for us at the pickup point I asked where that was and whether we could walk there but he didn't know where we were! Eventually he told us to go back to our hotel and as we walked away a car driver pulled up and told us he was taking us to the bus, now at another hotel. It seems we should have walked on a short distance to the junction with the main road, which no-one had mentioned. Had they phoned me we could have sorted this out but though I had warned them not to use WhatsApp because I can't get data on my phone I found a missed call from them when I got home.
So, got there and were sent off on our tour and were told where and when we were to be picked up. This battered, vintage minibus pulled up. It had the company name on the side and the driver was the one who had picked us up with his car so we and the others got in. No seat belts, the seats slid forward every time he braked, no air-conditioning (but the windows were open) and not much in the way of suspension. It was a very uncomfortable ride BUT, on the plus side, not being worried about his paintwork he took us right to our hotel.
So, they got us there and back but it was not the easy trip we had been promised and company's communications were extremely poor.
We would not use them again.

The tour included a guided visit through the city, learning about the city buried as a result of a volcanic eruption that lasted three days. Our visit was in summer of July, it was hot, so walk with water and comfortable shoes.

We had a guided tour of pompeii. It was really informative. Only drawback is, it would be better to be here for a whole day.
