Very nice activities to do with family - We were very well taken care of our driver Mauro, towards the widow on which my son - passionate about volcano - had pleasure to climb. Then on to Herculatum, a small Roman town that was also destroyed by the eruption of 79 AD. Beautiful ruins. Then departure for Pompei where we ate before making the ruins. We left with lots of pictures and lots of memories. The only downside for me that can not stand the heat, I will come back to be widowed but not in July.

Don't miss Pompeii! - Absolutely fascinating and delightful tour of Pompeii, highly recommended. Tour guide was excellent. For good reason this site is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Just the plaster body casts of the victims of Vesuvio makes this trip worthwhile, and the detail in the architecture is stunning.

Loved every second! - Our driver was clear on where and when to pick up. We prefer being able to go at our own pace and this was exactly that. There was enough time at each place that you didn't feel rushed. Only issue was no exact time for a proper lunch so make sure you avail yourself of the cafés at Pompeii as they had the best choices.

Great way to get to three sites in 1 day! - Our driver was very friendly, shared information about areas we were passing and where we were going. Herculaneum was my favorite of the three as it was smaller, and more preserved. Mt Vesuvius was steeper and colder then we thought it would be and wish we hired a guide for Pompeii! Pompeii is so large we got so lost, missed the best parts because we got so lost and even having the paper map, and had to hurry to get to the meeting point, LOL! So happy we did the tour, thank you!

Good service, timing could be better allocated - Its basically car service to get you to these 3 places. Our driver was great. 2 hour stop is definitely not enough time in Pompeii. I would reccomend doing 3 hours there and cutting the other 2 stops by 30 mins each.

Just a driver- not a tour! - this tour is well built. they take you to 3 main attractions and leave you there with enough time to explore it yourself. so far, the good part... but that's it! yhus is NOT a tour! the driver doesnt say a word while driving, like talking about pompei or somehistory or bqckground- nothing! also, the driver just leave you and go without checking if you managed to get it (or do you have enough water)... so if you want a pure driver- this is an expensive option... if you want a tour- this is not it!

Money driven driver - driver turned up in taxi van for tour. On taking us to Pompeii the group of 8 was informed we had to get a map and audio guide from the tourist office across the street to get entry for 10 euros each. On giving over tickets we were all given a free complimentary map to use. The guide then took us to Vesuvius and asked that if everyone paid him 5 euros each he'd stop at a restaurant he used with his family for dinner. When asked what they sold he couldn't tell us. We refused. On returning the guide took us to Herculaneum without speaking to us at all apart from saying he wasn't staying and another driver would come for us - but he would have stayed for the 40 euros. This isn't a tour. This is a driver that dumps you at each location without talking about it once. Ideally I want at least a part refund for the drivers behaviour and the pointless audio guides. Hopefully I'll get a productive response

Poor experience and service by driver - The main issue was the constant attempts to rip us and the others off. In Pompeii we were given a free map on entry. Why then did the driver take us to a tourist office literally across the road from Pompeii where we were told we had to buy a map and audio guide for entry at the price of 10 euros each. One party paid 40 euros for literally nothing. Then at Vesuvius we were told by the driver if we wanted we could stop an hour for dinner. If we all agreed it would cost us 5 euros each that would be paid direct to the driver. After refusing this and coming down from Vesuvius and after being willing to wait for us earlier for this dinner, the driver after taking us to Herculaneum informed us he wasn't taking us back and we would have to be picked up by someone else. Really poor experience and ideally I want for money back for being forced to buy audio guides that weren't given as a choice

Pricey for a disappointing trip with no Pompeii! - Overall disappointing end to the trip. The start of the trip was great visiting Vesuvius then Herculaneum. Finally we were dropped at Pompeii for 2:50pm, we had a quick look at some stalls outside nearby then went to the gates at 3:15pm. The gates were closed and we were told we weren’t allowed entry despite last entry being 3:30pm. Confused, we tried to contact our driver who eventually picked us up about 30mins earlier than originally planned so we still had to wait quite a while. We were then told we can use our tickets again tomorrow but have to pay for our own transport as “i suppose you dedicated more time for your lunch than for visiting” - when we didn’t even go for lunch.. An overall disappointing end to the trip, especially after paying over €500 euros.

This is not well planned... - This is not well planned out. We thought we would be doing a tour with a group of people all doing the same itinerary, but we were not. I don't want to sound entitled, but the driver spoke no English and we spoke little Italian which also contributed to a lot of confusion. He would have to call his tour company to translate. We missed part of tour because we had people who needed to be back to their cruise ship by a certain time.
