The tour guide Roberta was excellent, and the 3D experience was worth every penny! It was amazing to see how beautiful the city looked in all its colour.

The AR experience was less than it appeared to be on the website. It was cool, but the tech was rough (didn't actually overlay in real time/space; I spent a lot of time spinning in circles trying to see and/or catch the images over where they belonged) and the glasses weren't clean to begin with. I'm glad I did it because it was novel and it did illuminate the past a bit. A proper guide with a picture book might do nearly as well though.

What an excellent experience this was! Maria was knowledgeable and attentive from start to finish and the AR experience enhanced the historical imagery very nicely. Glad we decided to go for this option and would highly recommend it for families or individuals.

I really enjoyed the tour and seeing what Pompeii used to look like in its glory days. I guide was wonderful, she tried to provide information and yet keep the group together for those of use who were older and a little slower. I appreciate her efforts, enthusiasm, knowledge and kindness.

Guide was very knowledgeable. I was a few mins late due to train delays and she was very patient. VR headset was ok and gave a fair representation. The guide had a habit of walking ahead and talking but not directly to the group. We didn’t have headsets to hear this conversation and we missed a lot of what she was saying. She wasn’t attentive enough to where all group members were and making sure we all could hear her. It became very frustrating to constantly to try keep up with her to try to hear what she was saying. Headsets/ microphones linking to the guides conversation as we walked round would have made a big difference. Not sure I’d recommend this tour unfortunately.

Roberta was a realy helpfull and freindly guide. The technology deffinatly added to the experience. As the site is so vast only a keyl areas are covered so allow time to continue the tour on your own. The equipment was clean and worked well. I Have removed a mark as join could have been easier suggestion to AR Tours the guide to wear a hat or badge would have been good. Roberta worked very hard and made sure all guest was collected and had a great tour around the ruins

We weren’t sure if the extra €30 would be worth it for the AR experience but it may have been the best money we ever spent. Not only were the artists recreations incredible to see over the top of the ruins, giving so much more context than the city alone, but the tour is much smaller and more intimate than other tours. We were just 2 couples with the guide Francesca so we could all ask questions which was fantastic with how much she knew about Pompeii and it’s neighbouring cities during Vesuvius’ eruption! P.s. go and see the Lupanar and Amphitheater when the tour is done, they are both amazing experiences. But I’m sure your guide will suggest it also!!

We were looking forward to the experience after reading many positive reviews however the tour was ultimately very disappointing. Our tour guide essentially took us from spot to spot to watch the AR videos, with very little effort to explain anything. This was particularly frustrating as we seen many other tours stop to explain in detail the history and facts behind each landmark which we just ignored and walked straight past. We found ourselves eavesdropping on other tours as they were more engaging. The AR element of the tour was ok, was cool to see how the buildings used to look at first however, there were only around 6 or so spots where we put on the glasses and the videos were only 30 sec long - nothing you wouldn’t be able to find on YouTube. The AR videos felt more like disjointed clips rather than an experience, especially as our tour guide provided little to no context. The AR parts are few and far between and doesn’t cover a lot and missed most of the major landmarks as a result and had to walk round after the tour to revisit. However, without a tour guide, it was very hard to understand any of the history behind the ruins. We left Pompeii having learnt nothing and feeling gutted we did not book a better tour for the same price.

The cisit at Pompei couldn't be the same without the glasses! It is much more interesting and fun way to discover gow wverything was for real! You get to see some points as you live rhem now... I really reccomand to take this tour, it's the best thing to do in an archeological site.

Roberta was really nice and knowledgeable. We had the chance to be only two participants on the tour. VR was a good way to see hiw things were before. I wish we could have seen a bit more places. Thanks a lot!
