Flora snd our guide in pompeii were excellent. I think his name was Adriano. Very good humour. Highly recommended
Flora was excellent. Victonio (I think thats how his name was pronounced) was excellent in Pompeii. Great humour and guiding. Food was good if you get the lunch too. Well worth the money.
We had a 5 star experience on our trip to Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius. Dayana and Salvatore were great. Dayana was kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. Salvatore was our driver and he got us everywhere on time and safely. I highly recommend this tour 👌 🙌

A big thank you to Marco, who organized the tour excellently and accompanied it with his likable manner. Everything was perfectly coordinated and we felt well taken care of at all times. Also a big compliment to our driver Giacomo, who brought us safely and relaxed through the sometimes challenging traffic. The guided tours were also excellent: Giovanni brought Pompeii to life with exciting stories and a lot of expertise. At Vesuvius, Consta gave us interesting insights into the history and geology of the volcano and made the tour very entertaining. The entire tour was perfectly organized, informative, and relaxed at the same time. I can recommend WorldTours to anyone who wants to experience Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius in one day. Many thanks to Marco, Giacomo, Giovanni, and Consta for this unforgettable day!

Great day out with Felicia as our guide and Francesco driving. Pick-up was right on time at the meeting point, which sets the tone straight away. Felicia is lovely and really knows her stuff, she brings Pompeii to life instead of just reeling off dates. Vesuvius afterwards was well organised too, we had enough time to actually enjoy it rather than being rushed. Special mention for the lunch: we weren't expecting that much food, several different Italian specialities and the wine that goes with it. Small group in a van, so a nice atmosphere, we met some genuinely good people we spent the whole day with. Nothing to complain about, we'd recommend it without hesitation. Thanks Felicia and Francesco!

Alessandra and Fernando were great at transporting us between the main excursion destinations. Very clear and knowledgeable about Naples and the history of the mountain. Thank you both.
Thank you! We're glad Alessandra and Fernando made your excursion so interesting and pleasant. Hope to see you again soon!
Francis and the driver Guiseppe were great. There was slight confusion on where the pickup point was for our cruise pickup point. But after phone call, they picked us up at the other terminal point where the cruise shuttle bus to port terminal exit dropped us off. Francis was very entertaining and Guisepe was smooth safe driver.
Thank you! We're glad Francis and Giuseppe made your tour great. We apologize for the initial pickup confusion and are glad it was quickly resolved. Hope to see you again soon!
Very good experience and day together with Fransesco and Guiseppe. Lovely day, unforgettable. Good structure and the guide Fransesco was very happy and joyful all day. Thank you for a lovely day :)
Thank you! We're thrilled Francisco and Giuseppe made your day so memorable and joyful. Hope to see you again soon!
Francisco and Giuseppe were great! Giuseppe provided a smooth, safe ride, and Francisco gave good facts, was organized and kept us running on time. I would say the lunch was a little underwhelming and the wine wasn’t very good, but the tours themselves were great.
Thank you! We're glad Francisco and Giuseppe made your tour great. We appreciate your feedback regarding the lunch and wine, and we will share this with our team to improve. Hope to see you again soon!
Brilliant experience with our guide Francisco and smooth ride especially up Vesuvius with our driver Giuseppe
