Highlight trip Rome - Was really a top experience. Both guides were super. The guide in Pompeii regularly used jokes which kept it light. Time in Sorrento was short, but enough to take beautiful pictures and enjoy a gelato. Giovanni (guide on the bus) took the time on the way back to answer each question personally. For me, this was one of the highlights of my trip in Rome. However, I would not recommend it for people who are more difficult to walk. Pompeii is quite bumpy and sometimes there is also a bit to step through. Furthermore, this is highly recommended!

The Best Tour Guide!!! - Giovanni was an incredible tour guide—truly outstanding! This was our first European tour, and we would choose him again in a heartbeat. He was extremely knowledgeable, spoke multiple languages, and carried himself with professionalism throughout the entire experience. Pompeii and Sorrento were absolutely breathtaking, and Giavonni’s guidance made the trip even more memorable. On the bus and at every stop, he engaged with guests, shared fascinating stories, and asked thoughtful questions. He created a warm, family-like atmosphere that brought everyone together. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond. He gave us his personal number in case we needed anything, which we didn’t expect to use—but we did! We reached out to him for help finding antique furniture shops and for guidance on how to get to Naples and Capri. He provided such thorough information that we were able to plan and book the next leg of our journey with ease. We highly recommend using him.

Fantastic experience. Amazing guides - Fantastic experience and taste of Pompeii and Sorrento. Our guides and driver were amazing, Giovanni was incredibly friendly and helpful and gave lots of detail of everywhere we passed in both English and Spanish. Well planned and we saw really good parts of pompeii for the time we were there (about 1.5 hours). Had an hour free time in Sorrento to have a look around. Long day but worth it, make sure you use the toilet at every opportunity!

Pompeii was brought to... - Pompeii was brought to life by our amazing tour guide Francesco. His passion and love for his job shone through from beginning to end. Our next stop to the Lemoncello factory was really a waste of time and energy. I would suggest omitting it from the schedule and allowing more time in Sorrento. Tiziano, our tour director for the day was kind and very organized.

Good day out - All in all this was a great trip. Pompeii is a must see and the tour guides were lovely throughout the experience. I would advise you to take water etc as when we reached the stop the queues were too long to grab a drink in the short time we had. The Pompeii tour also felt slightly rushed if I'm honest, the free time is 10 minutes, but it was very enjoyable. The Sorrento visit again was too short. We had less than an hour and there was not enough time to really explore. However I would recommend the trip and the company, it was a good day out!
