Amazing experience, bus tour guide was very friendly and picked us up on time. Had an on route brief sightseeing tour to Pompeii, tour guide in Pompeii was incredible so knowledgeable and made sure all the group were together at all times. And lastly mount Vesuvius wow what an adventure! Make sure you wear a comfy pair of shoes the last 280 to the summit is not for the weak. The Bus driver was honestly the best driver I have ever seen and the food can’t forget the food at the foot of Vesuvius so amazing. The overall trip in my opinion is hugely underpriced for what you get and would encourage anyone thinking about it to do it and I can promise you, you will not forget it

We did the full day tour both Pompei and Mt Vesuvius. The pick up travel was ideal, well paced and excellent lunch and wine tasting with a nice kettle comfort and treat stop on the homeward journey. The sad thing was at Pompeii while the local guide was very knowledgeable and lovely we only heard about 20 percent of what she was saying due to ge very quiet voice, and the type of head set she had and the listening device range of the equipment. Improving this would have allowed me to put an excellent rating

The two attractions (Pompeii and Vesuvius) were both really well organized with knowledgeable guides. We also got to skip the very long lines. The lunch was awful. They sold the story of a family owned vineyard where the food is home made. We were squashed into a glass room with no aircon or ventilation with about 80 other travelers and made to wait over an hour for average tomato sauce pasta. We tasted 3 wines but no one explained anything about them. Skip this if you can.
