No visit to southern Italy would be complete without a visit to the unique ruins of Pompeii, and this tour is perfect if you're short of time. Explore the ancient city covered by volcanic dust from Mt Vesuvius in AD 79, and see the excavated remains of the Forum, Thermal Baths, Lupanare, greek theatre and plaster casts of the bodies of Pompeii people.

Picked up at Marina Piccola in Sorrento for a smooth ride to Pompeii. At our arrival we had some time before the tour. Our guide was knowledgeable and informative. A short two hour tour - we only saw a fraction of the ruins so impressive. We then had a bit of time before we hopped back on the van to return to Sorrento and the drive stopped for us to take photos of the beautiful coast.

This was an enjoyable tour despite the hot and humid weather and tremendous crowds on the day we went to Pompeii. The air-conditioned van picked us up promptly and the drive to and from Sorrento was pleasant. The tour group was almost 40 people, but our guide Eliza was charming and very experienced. She seemed to know very well how to navigate through the site while avoiding the crowds and giving our group the opportunity to see the highlights of Pompeii. This was our first visit to Pompeii and I would recommend the tour if only to "beat the line" given the popularity of this fascinating archeological site.

I gave this 4 stars because our guide was fantastic. Mario was our guide and was actually an archaeologist who worked at Pompeii during university. He did a good job keeping us together during the crowds and explaining what Pompeii was like before the eruptions. He gave us a lot of insight in the short amount of time we were with him. This would have been. 5 star experience, but it was a little chaotic with pickup and drop off and the shuttle services. People had all different tour options booked, so it gets a little confusing. Be prepared for the heat and mosquitos. I brought a water bottle with me that saved me, but typically no food or drinks are allowed inside. There is an area outside the entrance where food, drinks and souvenirs can be bought. Also keep in mind that many of the key artifacts you would expect to see are in the Naples museum. I would do this tour again, but I would make plans to go to the museum in Naples as well.

Great tour guide; Eliza is wonderful and very knowledgeable.
Bring change with you as you need to pay to use the bathroom at the entrance of the site. Once inside the ruin there are free for use bathrooms.
Tour started much later than stated and pick up time was much earlier. They have to accommodate the whole group so plan for that.
Tourist prices for drinks and food at the site entrance. $12 a lemonade
Transport drivers and buses were very nice and clean and just right amount of AC.
I’d do this again. All people were friendly and it felt safe.

Very interesting. We had to wait 30-45 minutes for the tour guide to get the tickets. Once on the tour she was informative and passionate about giving us information.
