Sasha was a great tour guide! I really liked him and the gentleman driving our bus. I do wish that the event at Pompeii lasted longer, I would honestly have traded time at the 4 or 5 stops to spend more time at Pompeii. It felt like every stop was a predatory way to lead us into shops that were likely paying you folks to take us there and spend money. I did not enjoy the vibes of being taken to a jewelry shop without any forewarning. Once again I really enjoyed our tour guide, he was funny, intelligent, and sentimental/ respectful of the dead. I just wish the tour company "I <3 Rome" was better. Cheers, hopefully you take this as critical and not derogatory.

The Trip is designed in a bad way. Transfer to Sorrento takes a long time so finally you have only 1 hour at the city which is mostly used for the lunch (only opportunity to eat) then heading back towards Pompei takes another hours. As a result you have only about 2 hours for visiting Pompei (which, when you do not know the place, is hardly enough for even a quick tour), and almost no time to walk around Sorrento. Perhaps starting trip a hour earlier would give some additional time and probably help avoiding morning traffic jams when leaving city.

Christian may be the best bus driver in the world! My guy has got skills, not only did he get us there and back I was so impressed I just had to tip him 20 Euro for a safe travel day! Mara was incredible, friendly and outgoing, she was extremely knowledgeable not only about destinations but sites along the way. She enhanced the ride by providing us music that was born from the locations she was telling us about giving us a deeper appreciation for the entire country of Italy and not just our paid destination spots! I would definitely recommend these two together if you're lucky enough to get them!
