Reviews
amazingly beautiful trip.. especially for me because I was the only English speaker in the group and most of the people Spanish and Latin speaking even in that I was made to feel like a part of the group and never encountered any problem. guide: excellent guide and very helpful and understanding. Christiano was amazing. itinerary: was good especially the Pompeii tour was beautiful.
Total disappointment. I joined this tour mainly for Pompeii, but we had very little time there, everything was rushed, and there was no chance to explore on our own. In Sorrento we got even less time – only about 30–35 minutes “on the run”. Meanwhile, far too much time was spent in a restaurant and at a so-called “limoncello factory”, which was just a shop with overpriced products – a purely commercial stop. The organization was weak, the group kept delaying, and we returned at 22:15 instead of the advertised 20:15. Overall, it feels like the tour is built around commercial stops designed to make tourists spend money: almost every stop had inflated prices, even “toilet/coffee” breaks were tied to shops. Definitely not worth the money.
The whole trip was just stopping at places to buy and eat things... Joined the tour aiming for the Pompeii Archaeological Park, but only stayed at Pompeii for two hours. Regrettably wasted the whole day participating in this tour.
Good to know
- Please note that during the summer period, the itinerary may be reversed: you will visit Sorrento first, followed by Pompeii. This adjustment is made to ensure a more comfortable experience during peak season.
- Should we reach the required number of participants for a single group, the tour will operate in a single language rather than bilingually
