“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.”
