Vesuvius/Pompeii/Herculaneum - Great tour.. Climbing Vesuvius was awesome. Pompei while busy was amazing. Herculaneum was really interesting but less critical of a stop. Still all were great as was the tour planning/execution.. thanks again!!

Excellent (and very comfortable) tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum - We very much enjoyed the tour. Corrado, our driver, was great and did his best to smooth over the lack of tickets at Vesuvius. Both Tiziana and Floriana were excellent guides and shared a wealth of information about the sites. They both have great personalities and we enjoyed our time with them. Highly recommended.

Thank you Mondo Tours for great planning and implementation - Andrea, our private guide, carefully showed us all the colorful and important aspects of Herculaneum. Plus he was always attentive to our care and safety. We thoroughly appreciated his knowledge and enthusiasm for the area. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Andrea.
Vicenzo, our driver, picked us up at the Naples train station, dropped us off at Herculaneum, then picked us up after our tour. He had quite a challenge dropping us off in Sorrento on a Friday when people are getting off from work. He skillfully dodged scooters, cars, and pedestrians, dropping us off safely at our hotel.
Thank you too to Dario at Mondo tours for planning our tour experience so we could fit in Herculaneum early, giving us a free day later to enjoy Sorrento.

Our guide Dario was excellent. He gave an excellent tour of Pompeii and we then went to Naples. - Dario gave an excellent tour of Pompeii. He was very informative regarding daily life in Pompeii. We then went to Naples and went to Castel Elmo to get a panoramic view of the city. Dario explained the history of the city and then we descended to the Spaccanapoli which is the street that “splits” Naples. As we walked the street with narration from Dario we learned more about the city and its history. We left feeling we had a good taste of Naples
