Impersonal tour. Felt herded as so busy. The ai tour of Herculaneum was unimpressive so we ended up going round u guided. Didn't have long enough to truly see the site. Had no clue how long the climb at Vesuvius would be. Regret booking via this agent which was in fact through Around Vesuvius.

Both guides, Mario for Vesuvius and Yolanda for Pompeii, were exceptional. Very dynamic, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout. I highly recommend them!
