The bus driver was excellent, especially maneuvering on the tight curves of Mt Vesuvius. Ion, our tour guide provided many important information on the drive to the mountain and the Pompeii. The tour was efficient and the logistics were well handled

The guides were very knowledgeable, friendly and entertaining. Our tour leader kept us on track and was amazing (Manuela). We signed up for the Mt. Vesuvius hike and the views were breathtaking, plus we got to see Pompeii and the valley from above, which gave us perspective for our Pompeii tour. Plus it was a great mini-hike after taking the bus from Rome. The Pompeii tour hit the highlights and gave us so much context and information that we otherwise would not have had. We got to visit the women's bathhouse, with its mosaic floors and amazing intact details. Pizza lunch was yummy and the restaurant accomodated food alergies with no issues.

Full-day guided trip from central Rome with round-trip AC coach transfers and free onboard Wi-Fi.

I liked the information given during the tour. The tour guides were excellent. I have to say that the hike in Vesuvius crater plus the tour around POMPEII are too much for some. I am an athletic female and I found it trying at times. I recommend a physical be requested by the participants before allowing anyone to take part. IE: cardio/respiratory health and a DRS note proving they are fig enough. This is a suggestion to protect your liability. If not, probably ask for a waiver to be signed protecting your company should anyone collapse in the extreme heat while hiking.
