Pompeii and Herculaneum Small Group tour with an Archaeologist

This was a superb tour! Our archeologist guide, Sergio, was very knowledgeable and passionate about his subject, gave a well-paced tour, and seemed to be a fine gentleman, to boot! We truly felt that the tours through Pompeii and Herculaneum were comprehensive and inclusive—and were a great way to see these “bucket-list” sites.

Diego was a wonderful guide for these two tours. He was extremely knowledgeable and his background as an archeologist really helped us understand both sites. Pompeii is overwhelming and very large and difficult to navigate without a guide, so we would highly recommend this tour, and Diego!

Oct. 2021- What a wonderful day! We took an early train from Rome and meet our driver, Roberto, at the Naples Station at 9:15 a.m. The drive to Pompeii was comfortable and Roberto played music and talked with us about the area (Trip was semiprivate with my husband and I and another tourist). He even stopped in new Pompeii and let us visits the town square for 15 mins since we had some time. Sergio was our guide for the ruins and he was excellent, you can tell he is extremely passionate about this area. Herculaneum was a MUST do... It is way less crowded then Pompeii and the ruins are more intact. I am so happy we got to see both. Because we got this package, we got to go in the private car for transfer from Pompeii to Herculaneum and had time for a sit down lunch. The other option would be to take a 30 min train. Roberto took us to a local Italian restaurant where we had amazing pizza for lunch. Then we went to Herculaneum. Roberto dropped us back at the Naples station at 5:15 p.m. and we took the next train back to Rome.

Michael was an outstanding passionate guide, his knowledge and passion for the history was clear .An amazing day out thank you

Our Guide was amazing! Wonderful information. Definitely bring water and sunscreen and wear comfortable shoes!

Being in the heart of such an historic place was heavy on my heart. It was very informative and interesting. Our guide was an archeologist so he shared a lot of his knowledge with us and there is so much to learn about this place. I loved the tour and would highly recommend it to everyone that has a love of history. Francesco, our driver was so helpful with our day and took us to a wonderful restaurant for lunch. His communication was accurate and he had such a great attitude. Wanted to get to know us and share his culture with us.

Amazing tour of Pompeii and Herculaneum with Diego. Over a full day we got to see why these are Europe's best archaeological sites. We really felt like we had a sense for the history and life of the Roman period.

Diego was fantastic! Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. His passion for the subject made everything more enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour and you’re very lucky if you are assigned to Diego. Thank you so much!
