A wonderful experience with a guide who provided clear and detailed commentary. The tour was well organized. We were taken care of as soon as we arrived at the Instazione agency.

Consider making the tour at least an hour longer. Very good experience. Knowledgeable guide - great storyteller! Disappointed in other participants' lack of respect for time and instructions. The delays because of that and endless (they were necessary) name calls to ensure that other grown ups were present, were painful.

The tour guide was just brilliant with excellent knowledge of the area. She was so interesting and kept us engaged for the whole 2 hours. The organisation at Pompeii is unacceptable and needs improvement

Then explore on your own and visit the beautiful sights, including the museum. The person at the ticket office on level -1 was really professional and very friendly.
