“I'm rating it 5 stars although we couldn't do Vesuvius because it was closed due to pouring rain, logistics went into the dumpster because of the rain, our (Spanish) guide couldn't even arrive and they had to replace our guide, THAT BEING SAID, our guide Santiago was absolutely amazing, I dare say the best possible outcome was getting Santiago, we enjoyed very much our tour in the rain, sadly after the tour you'll want to spend 2 more weeks exploring the ruins with Santiago but we only had 2 hours.”

“We LOVED this tour! Easily one of our favorite things we did in Naples. Our tour guide was Giovanni and driver was Gennaro C. They were very professional and made our day run smoothly! The bus was also nice/clean. We went to Pompeii first and had a great tour with a live guide and used a microphone/earbuds so we could hear her from farther away. The pompeii tour was about 2 hours. Of course, you could spend a whole day at Pompeii but I feel like it was a decent amount of time to see lots of the site. Then we did the lunch with wine tasting and it was…”

“We had a fantastic time hiking up to Etna's summit craters. Our guide, Antonio, was very knowledgeable, attentive, and set a pace that was comfortable for the entire group. We got some amazing views, including of the volcanic activity happening on the other side of the volcano. It feels like you are on a different planet! Additionally, Mary was extraordinarily helpful in communicating in advance, and assisted us the evening before the hike when the transportation we'd arranged to get to the starting point cancelled on us. We would have missed out on this experience without her help. Thank you!”
