Simply Great!

Our tour guide, Francesco, made this a special and most memorable event. Normally a three hour walk in the grueling Pompeii summer sun would be unbearable. The guide made all the difference. He sought out shade to talk about what we had seen or were about to see. His humor was infectious and his knowledge free flowing and never condescending. This was my third visit to Pompeii and, by far, the most memorable.
Not the tour If you are into history - good for kids.

The guide was more of a comedian than an archeologist. The group was bigger than 10 people. He arrived late.
I took the tour with my husband and wished I had booked another one or skipped it. The guide was good with kids (but we don’t have any)
Response from Host , Jul 2022
kind customer the guide who made your tour is a professional, who by defining a comedian you do nothing but offend, since you bought a shared tour accessible to all the guide had to adapt the tour to the children present, next time you can also book a private tour with the same guide to test his actual knowledge.
A great tour of Pompeii

Tour was subpar

The tour was much shorter than advertised. We did not start on time and we finished approximately 30 minutes early so the tour was actually much closer to 2 hours than 3. The tour guide was nice and polite but not great as a guide. He spent a lot of the tour reading and showing pictures from a children's book on Pompeii. It is an experience worth doing but I would go with a different tour operator.
False advertising – this was a two hour tour

While the guide was very good, I had specifically signed up for a three hour guided tour. This ended exactly at two hours, with the guide repeatedly saying that he had to get some people back to the starting point at a specific time. False advertising, They were plenty of guides there that I overheard that were very good. I would not recommend using this company.
Fantastico Tour!

This tour was one of the highlights of our three-week visit to Italy. Our guide was knowledgeable (encyclopedic), engaging, and funny! He made Pompei come alive again, telling us not only about the ruins, but details about Roman life at that time, even describing how different people dressed depending on how wealthy (or not) they were. The tour was from 3pm till 6pm, and very hot in the beginning, but pleasant at the end. Our guide was good about finding shade and water for us along the way. I will highly recommend this tour to all my friends!

Our guide Paulo was very knowledgeable and made us “ live” the story of Pompeii. Great size of the group- 8 of us. He kept asking for feedback to ensure everyone understood what he was explaining. He was excellent! After the guided tour, you can still explore on your own. Great experience from Pampeii!

Fantastic way to see this amazing place

Vicenzo was a super guide - clear knowledgeable information, all of it super interesting - he was also able to answer individual questions in depth and clearly was very passionate about Pompeii and its importance as a site. I felt I’d really learned about the city’s history, it’s construction, and everyday life there. The pace and time was perfect (note there is no break!) I loved every second.
Worth the time and money!

Francesco is the best!!!

Francesco was an amazing tour guide! He was incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone going to Pompeii and 3 hours is the perfect length. We were lucky to have a small group, it was one of the highlights of our trip.

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
