I liked the organization from the time I bought the tickets on the website to the time I arrived at the venue, the service at the appointed place, the clear and precise information, the guides were very polite, attentive and had a wealth of information and experience. The language was perfect. I 100% recommend this company for ticket purchases. They are totally reliable, honest, with clear and precise information and exemplary professionals.

The transportation to Pompeii in the van was excellent and had me excited for the tour. But then I was disappointed to see that our small group from Naples would join a much larger group of people (about 30 people including us, and this took some time to gather everyone together). I rather a smaller group because when in a larger group, you're forced to contend with other large tour groups and make way for each other among small areas of Pompeii and if you find yourself at the end of your tour group line opposite the tour guide, the radio/audio ear piece starts to get all static-y and go in and out, losing whatever vital information there is. The tour guide was excellent, but the tour felt rushed, there was initially no time for souvenir shopping until I asked about having just a few minutes to quickly browse, and ultimately felt I missed out on Pompeii, wishing I had more time to explore it. 2 hours is not enough time (Can't call yourself a 4 hour tour when that includes transportation and then waiting for other people to merge into the group -plus we got back to Naples 20 minutes earlier).

This place is too crowded. Not sure if there are ever betrer times to visit. The guide was great! The group was a little large, could be smaller.

The tour guide was great but this is falsely advertised as a 4 hour tour. When taking off the travel to/from, then 35mins of toilet break at the beginning/end of the tour, 10mins queuing to get in and then arriving back at Naplea 10mins early, the actual tour is only 10.20 - 11.50

The perfect half-day tour from Naples, Pompeii is an ideal distance away for a scenic day trip. Explore the ancient Roman town, famous for being preserved in a near-perfect state, and revel in the ancient glory of the Campania region. Age-old ruins, breathtaking volcanic landscapes away from the city, this experience is perfect for anyone looking for a short break from Naples.

With these tickets, you don’t have to worry about anything on your Vesuvian adventure. Travel in a fully fitted GT coach/minibus will pick you up. Audio-commentary onboard the GT coach will keep your interest in the site piqued. See the massive site spread over 50 hectares along with objects from the Roman Era as you discover one of the largest remnants of ancient Roman architecture, culture, and style.

An archaeological site that is timeless, Pompeii harks back to life in the 1st century AD. The heat and ash generated from Mt Vesuvius were so high, that Pompeii appears to have been frozen at the moment with plaster casts of people standing as they were millennia ago.

Get picked up by your tour guide and make your way to Pompeii on the luxury A/C GT coach/minibus. Upon arrival, it’s time to step into the historic site with a professional guide.

Top it off with the incredible Mount Vesuvius in the background, and the views simply cannot be found elsewhere in the world. Scour the town streets and take in the many ancient ruins that earn this town it’s UNESCO World Heritage Site tag. From the Villa of Mysteries to the Basilica, there’s a lot for you to take in and discover including intricate murals and simple day-to-day objects.
