The best tour ever - Pasquale and Lelo were the best and most informative guides I have ever experienced. This is exactly what we were looking for.

Excellent Day - Marco was easy to find at the cruise port exit. Very nice and informative. We didn’t have lunch plans, however he called and reserved us a spot at a winery for wine tasting and lunch. Spent time at Pompeii, did some shopping, visited the Limoncello factory, bought some Limoncello for home. And returned to the ship on time. Great day. Definitely recommend

No One is Better Than Lello! - Lello and Pierpaulo were spectacular! My brother has toured with Lello twice, and my son and his friends once (Lello's first tour post-covid). My wife and I, and my sister and brother-in-law took their recommendation and booked with him too. ABSOLUTELY NO REGRETS! Pierpaulo met us at the Naples port right off the ship. Our party of four was driven in an eight passenger Mercedes van down the coast to Positano, stopping along the way at incredible look out points. We walked and shopped in Positano before going to the limoncello factory. We then had an amazing lunch at a local pizzeria in Pompeii, recommended by Pierpaulo who lives in the town. After lunch we met the man and the legend, Lello. Lello toured the four of us, privately, through Pompeii for two and a half hours. Lello is an archeologist and his knowledge of Pompeii is unmatched. It was clear, very quickly, that he is held in high regard by the other tour guides, many of them making way for him. He constantly referred to us as his family and loved seeing old pictures we showed him of when he toured my brother and our son. Together these two guides were pure gentleman, courteous and kind to the last minute. After Pomeii, Pierpaulo took us to get gelato and then back to the ship. There can't possibly be anyone better! Oh, and one of my son's friends will be returning next week with her husband to tour with LELLO!!

In Awe of Herculaneum and Mt. Vesuvius - What an amazing, historical and fun day. Our tour of Herculaneum and Mt. Vesuvius was booked in the US with “Tours of Pompeii with Lello & Co.” Paolo picked up promptly at 8:30 AM and is an extraordinary driver as well as conversationalist. The car was immaculate and very comfortable. We met Lello at Herculaneum and spent almost three hours touring the ancient city. Lello is a brilliant archeologist and historian as well as being very personable. We were in awe....the entire time. After Herculaneum, Paolo took us to Mt. Vesuvius. It was a really nice and peaceful drive. He waited for us while we walked the trail to the top. After that we had lunch and then drove the gorgeous scenic route along the coast back to Sorrento. It was a full 8 hour day and just perfect in every way. Grazie Mille, Paolo and Lello 💖

FANTASTIC! - FANTASTIC!!!! We chose a private tour with Lello and Co. The driver (Nick) picked us up at the cruise port and drove us to Sorrento for some free time to explore and enjoy Sorrento. Then we met up with our professional guide (Rafael Lello) for Pompeii. His enthusiasm, passion and knowledge were incredible. This was the best tour I have ever been on. We learned that this was his company later. Take this tour, I would definitely recommend it.

Wow!!! Just wow!! - Lello lello lello.... he was the Most awesome tour guide I have EVER had! My kids (well young adults 19 and 25) and my husband and I got back yesterday and we cannot stop quoting lellos sayings and the way he called me mama, my husband papa and how he pronounced my kids names. His knowledge on Pompeii and the history of Italy in general was outstanding. He was so enthusiastic about his profession as an archeologist and it showed on his face. We all definitely learned a lot, laughed TONS and enjoyed every single minute of the tour. We loved him so much. Wish we could of brought him home with us lol He was so entertaining!! So many beautiful pictures to take!
Our driver Leo was awesome as well. He was punctual, drive us safely to and from our place. He gave us insights and options where to go shop, eat lunch ( which we did the wine tasting up on Mt Vesuvius. That was outstanding as well. Good food, wine and I must say I loved their olives. Here in the states it’s sooo different.
Definitely recommend this tour. Especially if you get lello!!! Thank you so much

An amazing day of discovery! - Our tour was FANTASTIC!! Our driver Louisa met us at the train station and was very friendly. She then drove us to the Amalfi coast, our ride through the mountains was gorgeous. Louisa kept us well informed of all the sights we were seeing and spoke English very well. After we spent some time in Amalfi, Louisa drove us to Pompeii where we met our guide Stefania. She was WONDERFUL! She was so knowledgeable friendly and spoke perfect English. We truly enjoyed our day with both of them, our family can’t thank you enough for the time we spent with both of you. If you are looking for a beautiful relaxing and well organized day this is the company to choose.

Taxi Ride vs Private Guided Tour - We had booked a private guided tour in English but got a taxi ride to Positano and Pompei. First, John our guide was 15 min late with no notice. Once picked up, no apology or explanation. Then no explanation of what we were doing for the day. I kept asking "are we going to Pompei?" He kept responding but no one could understand what he was saying. We were dropped off at several picture spots but with litlle explanation of what we were looking at (or more accurately, we couldn't understand what he was saying). I gave this 3 stars because we picked up our Pompei guide (Sal) who was AWESOME!. I'm sure we were told we were going to pick him up but didn't understand John. I would give John 1 star and Sal 5 Stars - so split the difference to 3. Sal, who is a university professor, knew everything about Pompei. The family really felt like we got a in-depth documentary of Pompei - in a good way.
