Pompeii is one of the most magnificent and unique city in the world because it is an open-air museum in which you can touch and breathe the history of the ancient Romans.
It was destroyed by the Mount Vesuvius’ eruption in 79 AD. Pompeii was covered and after buried by tons of ash and pumice stones.
Our best local and top rated guide will take you back to the Roman Empire when Pompeii and the Volcano Vesuvius area were the most beautiful resort in Italy. Let your guide lead you into this amazing journey through the highlights of the Pompeii ruins: see the gladiators gymnasium and the temple of Isis; enter the theatres and check the acoustics quality 2000 years later; be enchanted by the decorations of the Baths and the House of Menander.
Furthermore, this private tour will be a completely relaxing experience for you: you will skip the line at the entrance and our guide will be at your disposal to give you all the information you need.

Rosanna was such a charm to have a private tour with! She navigated us through the crowds like a pro, and engaged my teenage kids with thoughtful questions. Of course Pompeii is so huge that we couldn’t see everything, but the time flew by so fast. I wouldn’t get a large tour!

Tour guide Roxanne was awesome. Very knowledgeable and fun to spend the day with. She was great! Got to see all the main spots of Pompeii and learned so much from Roxanne.

The coordination for this tour was amazing from the moment of making the reservation to the return by van after the tour was over to our original pickup place. GetYourGuide gets an A for overall coordination. Maria was our guide on 5 October, and she was good. Speaking slowly and patiently waiting for the 25-person group to move about. She was also good about not letting others jump the line. The tour itself is a group walk-about while sharing the paths with other similar-sized groups. Pompei was busy. The way to improve the Pompei experience is in the off season with a guide. This isn’t our preferred type of tour but having a guide is a terrific enhancement to what could be an otherwise uninspiring walk-about.

We booked a private tour of Pompeii and it was a fabulous experience from start to finish. Maria was vey helpful with scheduling the tour; she communicated and responded clearly and it was easy to pay online. After I booked it I decided to add the option to have a driver take us from our hotel in Sorrento. Maria made it easy to add that on.
Our guide, Italo, was wonderful. Friendly, polite, knowledgeable, and pleasant to be with. He made the experience completely enjoyable. We learned so much about Pompeii and he gave a great tour. He clearly know his stuff and likes what he does. 6 out of 5 stars! 😄
Our driver, Guido, was excellent. A very kind and polite young man. He chatted with us along the way, and was very attentive and respectful. After the tour we asked him to recommend a local place for lunch, and he gladly brought us into the town of Pompeii to a local pizzeria.
Overall this tour was one of the highlights of our trip. The ruins in Pompeii are incredible and the experience was so much more than I was expecting.
Highly recommend.

Italo, our guide, was fabulous. He was knowledgeable and gave us good insight to the life of Pompei. I would recommend a private tour with him. He made it fun and we moved through the city at a good tempo. Booking with Trip Advisor was easy and reasonably priced.

We took an 4 person guided tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke great English. He made sure we never waited for anything. He was respectful of others but didn’t allow anyone to push us. He was entertaining but factual. I’m pretty sure his name was spelled Etaly! He gets my highest rating!!

Our guide was Lelo. He is exceptional. He drew us in to the history, culture and lifestyle of the ancient city and we were mesmerized. He knows so much about the site and offered a context of relevance for us. Lelo's passion about Pompeii is contagious. His depth of knowledge is incredible. He is also funny and playful. We had a great time. The three hours flew by. Not to be missed. We toured with our 20 something kids.
