“Pompeii was amazing the tour experience was not. It is a bus tour through Napoli. The guide manager was difficult to understand in both english and spanish. During the bus tour they local guide would point out features, however, if you are not in the front of the bus you can not see what she is referring too. We were not given time to walk around Napoli. The lunch was a horrible experience. The guides even warned people not to order the fish. Service was slow. Once I received my food they were busing all the tables. The pizza was burnt and the dish was horrible. Majority of people left…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,350 reviews · 6 to 11 hours (approx.) · from $77

Archaeologist-led small-group trip pairing Pompeii and Herculaneum, with skip-the-line tickets, headsets, and transport between sites.

“We had a great time. The early start helped limit the crowds a bit. Vince was knowledgeable and engaging. We saw all of the big items at Pompeii but did not get to go into the antiquarium and only saw one of the plaster molds but were so caught up viewing all of the wall paintings, tiles and the brothel with excellent historical fact thrown in that we didn’t even notice until we got home at the end of the day. Herculaneum was a great addition and different enough to warrant its own visit. Getting there even with the tour is a bit more complicated so just bare that in…”
