Pompeii is really very big... October is a good time to visit. Not so crowded and a pleasant 20 degrees. We stayed just over 4 hours and it was never boring. So much to discover. An unforgettable experience.

Walking where Roman's walked 2000 years ago. Also the painting of the walls and frescoes. The guide gave a lot of information - she answered everyone's questions.

Everything was so well organised, and we knew what we were doing at all times. The train to and from Herculaneum was easy to navigate - there was a train manager on board that helped when we didn't know what to do. The walk from the station to the site was downhill, and very easy to find. The tour guide was knowledgable and friendly - made us really feel what it was like to have been in Herculaneum at the time of the infamous eruption. Getting back was easy - retrace our steps to the station, hop on the train, and back to Sorrento. Great day - amazing site - definitely recommend!

Excellent tour, Frankie brought Pompeii to life with his enthusiasm, humour and knowledge. He kept us clear of the crowds wherever possible, didn't make us feel rushed and advised the best time to photograph the main area by leading us back to where we started when everything was quieter. The whole experience was great value for money and meeting up with the tour party was so easy and straight forward. Both my son and I were so pleased we had joined the tour and both of us agreed it is excellent value for money. 10/10

The guide (Davide) was clear and enthusiastic. All of the day was well planned and well timed. Communication was fantastic. The guide in Pompei was very knowledgeable and kept us moving showing us such a lot. Well worth doing it! Loved the little stop on the way upto Vesuvius for buffalo milk limencello!
