From Rome: Pompeii Day Trip with Tickets & Guided Tour

It has been an outstanding day! Pompeii has been on my bucket list forever and it didn’t disappoint. I loved that we got to wander around Sorrento before we got to Pompeii, too and I loved that it wasn’t raining! Juliana was our guide at Pompeii and she was amazing! So knowledgeable, told us lots of great stories, pointed out small details that we wouldn’t have noticed otherwise and she had a lovely sense of humor. It is a long bus ride but totally comfortable and totally worth the trip. The only negative for me was trying to find the meeting place in the morning-their office is upstairs from MacDonald’s. And, I have to give them a shout out for their communication-when I called them, an employee came down the street to find me! Can’t ask for more than that! I would recommend this trip to anyone and everyone who can walk without issues!

El tour está más planteado como un negocio engañaturistas que como una visita a Pompeya. De las 12 horas invertidas el paseo de Pompeya duró una hora y 45 minutos. El viaje lleno de paradas tontas en áreas de servicio para hacer consumo y la estancia en Sorrento. definitivamente ridícula. Estuvimos en Sorrento una hora y media llevados a un restaurante Hiper caro para comer allí con prisa. No vimos Sorrento, comimos a toda prisa y cuando llegamos a Pompeya nos llevan a una tienda de camafeos donde nos enseñan la técnica de hacer los camafeos para ver si picamos y gastamos. Es un Tour nada recomendable. Un verdadero fiasco. Solo fue Verdaderamente interesante. La visita guiada que nos hizo Bruno en el recinto de Pompeya aunque fue de muy pocas duración. Antes de apuntaros a este Tour pensároslo muy bien. Fue una decepción tras otra

Seulement 1h30 de visite à Pompei au pas de course alors qu'on est venus pour ça...Triste... Aucun intérêt à visiter là aussi au pas de course une ville juste le temps de manger dans un resto touristique sans intérêt...Et l'accès aux toilettes à pompei situé dans une fabrique de Camays qu'il faut traverser après avoir dû écouter une présentation de leur fabrication et traverser tout le hall d'exposition bardé de vendeurs.... Au final tout ce commerce ça gâche le voyage.... Hreusement les guides sont super sympas ! Un grand merci à Francesca et à GianFranco !

Fantásticos tanto la guía que nos acompañó durante todo el trayecto, Isabella, como el guía que subió en Sorrento y nos explicó Pompeya, Sasha, ambos de 10. El conductor del bus también muy profesional, es un gusto realizar excursiones así. Fue una pena que, debido al tráfico, no tuviéramos casi tiempo de disfrutar de Sorrento, queda pendiente para una próxima ocasión....

The tour guide was nice person, however the tour was poorly coordinated by the company in timing and this significantly impacted the trip. We were left on the bus several times and waited on other people to join the tour at our stops which shortened our time at the two destinations. We were involved in a bus accident in the streets of Sorrento (which did not injure anyone) which delayed our arrival and free time in Sorrento. This accident also reaffirmed our feeling that the driver was erratically driving through narrow streets with cliff faces below which felt dangerous. At Pompeii the guide did not take us to one of the most major sites of the area, being the gladiator stadium and we had no spare time there to explore the site - this was super disappointing. Overall, dangerous transport, poorly organised, not enough time at the venue and a disappointment of a tour.

Actual Pompeii guide was great but no free time as promised which was disappointing. Could cut the trip by 2-hours if the lunch wasn’t stretched out & the side trip to the broach shop/museum that was a poorly concealed sales attempt wasn’t included. Was a waste of time. Tour guide on the bus was knowledgeable & kept us entertained on the journey with local history. A long trip for such a short time spent walking Pompeii
