Mixed emotions

I have mixed feelings about this. The guide was great - kind, communicated well with kids, and knew the appropriate facts. Drivers were great. However, I would not recommend this to anyone who really wants to experience Pompei. It was rushed. Rushed like I have never experienced with a guide. They said 2 hours and are sticking to it without seeing much of the major sites. I felt like we were always running after her. Museum was all of 7 minutes. Most guides I have say 2 hours but are flexible. Not this one. If you want a brief brief quick stop of pompei (a tapas of you will), this is it. Not of you really want to experience Pompei. Overall, it was way over priced for what you get.

Great tour of Pompeii!

Mondo Guide is a gem of a company. Their tour prices were the best rates I found, and their two hour tour of Pompeii, with archaeologist Gianluca was very informative and interesting. I highly recommend a guide as Pompeii is so large. Gianluca provided insights and showed us locations we wouldn’t have known if walking on our own. I also appreciated the company’s initiative and responsiveness when I was trying to find the initial meeting point, which was easy to find. I would recommend and use this company again, the next time I am in Italy.

Great Pompeii Guide and Travel agent!

Federica was efficient, very easy to work with, and very responsive...and we had a referral from other friends for our guide, Roberta and were so lucky to have her. In a very few hours we saw and learned so much. Communication was great all around, and I would recommend both for anything Naples or Italy related. Brava!

The Perfect Pompeii Experience

We are from Australia and we’re on a family holiday. I booked a private Pompeii tour including pickup and drop off and we had the most fabulous time. Our driver was fantastic and helpful and our guide for Pompeii was amazing, informative and very passionate. Mondo Guide made it all very easy. It was perfect.

Thank you Andrea!!

We had Andrea as our tour guide and he was amazing!! Even with 20 people in our group he took the time to learn all of our names. You could tell he was very knowledgeable about Pompeii and had us hit the best parts/least crowded sights. My favorite part is his humor and how entertaining he was able to make it. I couldn’t recommend anyone better. Thanks for making our tour so great!!

Excellent Service for a Private Transfer from Naples to Sorrento and Tour or Pompeii

We had a fantastic experience with Mondo Guide setting up a private transfer from Naples to Sorrento and tour of Pompeii. Communication was excellent and always timely. Our tour guide, Roberta, was an incredible guide! She was so incredibly knowledgeable, shared wonderful information, allowed us to see a lot during our tour and was very sweet and fun to be with! We would highly recommend her as a guide! We also enjoyed our drive with Andrea. He was polite and prompt and delivered us safely to our destinations. Overall, we were very pleased with this service through Mondo Guide!

Friendly, informative, and fun!

Roberta was FANTASTIC! Our whole family (kids AND adults) loved her tour, her information, and her friendliness. And she was so helpful when there was a mixup at the Pompei entrance gate. We will recommend Roberta and Mondo wherever we go!
