The most enjoyable tour of Pompei - We are on an Italy tour North to South and have visited many sights with guides so far. This archeological tour has been our highlight. It has surpassed all our expectations and has given us an in depth understanding of this site. Our specialist tour guide Lello has kept us entertained with facts and stories told in a very approachable way. It was for sure money well invested and we would highly recommend this tour to families.

Accompanied tour... - The tour accompanied by an archaeologist guide is 100% worthwhile. However, travelling within the site can be difficult for a person with reduced mobility and be aware of the extreme heat in July as there are few grey areas.

What we learnt on our guided Pompeii tour, “they are genius, we are stupid” - Our guide Leilo , from the very start embraced us like his own family and exuded charm and wit and we knew we were in good hands. Leilo’s oration throughout the tour was engaging and brought to life the experience of Romans at the time of Vesuvius eruption. His detailed observations and vivid depictions would inspire the most apathetic tourer. Leilo was able to make tangible links between past and present that demonstrate the genius of Pompeians We were a group of five including three children ranging from 11 to 18. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the tour and it’s charismatic guide. The genius of the tour is the way it is skilfully structured so that by the end everyone had not only greater understanding, but a thirst to know more. Would highly recommend . Easiest five star’s I have awarded for a tour.

Great Tour - Me and my best friend only had half a day to explore Pompeii, and we’re so happy with the tour. Lello was our guide and was very informative and interactive. It was me and my friend and a family of 3, so it was more personal than the other tours of 25+ people. He was able to answer any questions we had and made suggestions of other places to visit after the tour. Highly recommend.

Recommend Amazing Tour - We enjoyed our tour with our guide, Italo; he was very knowledgeable! We would recommend this 2 hour tour to others. We parked at Spartacus Campground, walked across the street and were met by Italio, who had a sign with our name.

Absolutely brilliant! - Absolutely brilliant! Lello is a treasure trove of archaeological expertise and brings such energy, enthusiasm and passion to his role as tour guide. Our family of 5 immensely enjoyed the 2 hour tour of Pompeii and our children (ages 14, 12, 9yo) were enthralled by all the incredible stories of Pompeii shared by Lello. Highly recommend this tour!

I would highly recommend... - I would highly recommend this tour. Our guide is an archaeologist. Not only was he knowledgeable and engaged with our small group, but also very entertaining and gave a great insight into the history of Pompeii. It was definitely a highlight of our recent trip to Italy.
