Our trip to Pompei and Herculaneum was great and it made all the difference in the heat to have a comfortable air conditioned minibus taking us everywhere. Our guide, Theresa, was very knowledgable and charming and went out of her way to explain everything and answer our questions. We all thought that it was money well spent and it made our trip very relaxing and enjoyable.

We had the most outstanding private tour of Pompeii with the wonderful Ornella!! Her knowledge and expertise is second to none. This, along with her friendly and engaging personality, was truly a highlight of our trip to Italy. I highly recommend & you will be very fortunate to have Ornella as your guide transporting you back to the days of Pompeii!! Everything was seamless, from our train station pick up to our drop off to meet Ornella at the gates of Pompeii. Memorable and fantastic. Molte Grazie!!

Sabina was very knowledgeable about Pompeii and Herculaneum. Very interesting and good to be with our own private group of four. And Ciro our driver was very nice and recommended a restaurant for lunch in Pompeii that turned out to be one of the best restaurants we’ve been to in three weeks in Italy.

Our group of adult learners was lucky to have Ornella to guide us in Pompeii for three hours. She is wonderful! We learned a lot and had fun. We could listen to her all day. This is our second tour with Ornella and we hope to have her again with our next group to Pompeii.

Habiendo contratado un tour privado de Pompeia y Ercolano para el día 25 de octubre por un importe de 637,84 € y teniendo la confirmación de las entradas incluidas, (1331514484), reserva num. 942130302, me encontré con la desagradable sorpresa de tener que abonar el importe de las entradas de los dos sitios para poder hacer la excursión. Según la agencia italiana Inwind.it las entradas no estaban incluidas, pero dado el importe abonado me hace suponer que hay un error de comunicación entre ustedes. Les agradecería me abonasen el importe de las 4 entradas por 58,00 euros.

Grazie a Ornella, per La sua preparazione storica e simpatia, abbiamo viaggiato nel tempo attraversando la vita quotidiana delle due città e i momenti tragici dell'eruzione. Nonostante il poco tempo a disposizione.

Visita ad Ercolano...è stata una bellissima sorpresa. La guida è stata veramente competente e professionale. Sicuramente richiamerò per eventuali altre visite.

Prima volta a Pompei, esperienza fantastica resa ancora più bella dalla bravura della guida Cinzia Daniele che ci ha fatto fare un tour immersi nella storia e negli aneddoti! Grande passione e disponibilità, la consiglio assolutamente. I ragazzi di Torino!
