So glad we booked this! - WOW! I had NO idea how huge Pompeii is! I’m so glad we booked this trip. I don’t think I would’ve been able to navigate the vastness and certainty would not have understood what I was seeing. Our guide, Salvadore, was informative and interesting.Because I had come with some (not much) previous knowledge, I appreciated that he asked us what we were most interested to learn about and see. We learned so much! It was a great way to spend the day. I’d like to go back and explore the museum. In some ways, I would’ve liked to stay longer, but my brain probably couldn’t have taken much more. Lol

Stress-free, easy, fun way to see Pompeii from Ravello. Good communication. Great tour guide! - 10/10 would recommend this to anyone interested in a fabulous small group tour of Pompeii with easy stress free pick-up and drop-off. By booking this, Ariana Travel organized our transportation and tickets to tour Pompeii. Our driver even gave us water bottles and our tour guide gave us tickets for free bathroom stop before the tour. Couldn’t have gone better. We only had 10 people in our tour group compared to 20-30 in other larger groups. Our guide Sebastian was so knowledgeable and funny! We went the opposite direction from the big crowds so we often had times we were the only group in the area making it much easier to hear him! Ariana Travel sent me a message via trip advisor after booking and included a whats app number, so I texted them to ask a few questions about the pick up location! They responded promptly. We were picked up the Garden Hotel Ravello - a short walk from the central piazza.

Pompeii: The Past Comes Alive! - This was an amazing half day trip from Ravello to Pompeii. The driver was prompt picking us up and very friendly. When we got there we were immediately introduced to our outstanding tour guide of nine years. She took us straight in! After the tour she reunited us with our driver who also was excellent. I highly recommend this tour!

Brilliant tour from start to finish - Absolutely fantastic tour from start to finish. I was very impressed that the tour operator messaged the day before confirming the precise pickup location (using googlemaps) and time. The private pickup was bang on time and very smooth. The tour itself was absolutely perfect. Our guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable but was also great fun and had a super sense of humour. His enthusiasm for the history of the site really came across and he imparted so much information to us but didn't make us feel overwhelmed. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough - it is so well organised and so enjoyable.

Pompeii with great guide - The best way to explore Pompeii. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable & overall excellent. She knew the best places to see & her knowledge of the site was awesome. Pompeii is so large, too much would have been missed without her guidance.

Beautiful Tour - My first time in Pompeii was really great. The driver Michele provided us with a lot of information along the way, his driving was very comfortable and safe. in the excavations we saw the amphitheater, the house of the faun, the temple of Apollo and many other beautiful things that the guide was able to explain accurately and precisely. I highly recommend this tour with this agency.

Fantastic day - Super comfortable and safe trip, Vincenzo was punctual and very prudent! We had fun on the trip and arrived in Pompeii where we met with the guide Sebastiano who accompanied us for two hours inside the excavations where we had the pleasure of knowing its history in depth. Then we returned to the hotel. I recommend this trip unique and important experience. Fantastic day.

Good general tour. - Our group of 9 was picked up on time, driven to Pompeii, put with another group of 11 for a guided tour, then led promptly back to the bus. The tour guide was informative but It felt kind of rushed as Pompeii is huge and after the tour we weren’t given any extra time to explore a bit on our own or ask questions.
