Wonderful trip. Ilaria was well informed and comfortably in control of our agenda. Our driver was excellent and we always felt safe (even in the streets of Napoli). The brief Vinyard tour/wine tasting and lunch were a perfect break on a hot day.
We loved this excursion and definitely recommend it! Imma and Marco were great! We enjoyed all stops: Pompeii was astonishing! The winery was breathtaking! The food and wine was delicious. I appreciate how accommodating the staff was with my food restrictions! Seeing Mt. Vesuvius was great, but a head's up for future travelers: the climb to the top of the mountain is a workout! Be prepared!
We found it really helpful to have a guide at pompei and to have transport to take us from place to place. Ilaria made sure everything went by smoothly and Biagio was a great driver. We enjoyed it very much. The length was nice too, with enough free time and breaks. The group was small and it made the atmosphere nice. The tour was worth it for the payed price. The tour is definitely best for an active sightseeing trip
Exactly as described, on time and without stress. Mery was our primary contact and guide in the van, with Antonio driving. Mery was very polite, engaging, fun, and informative. The 2 hour guided tour of Pompeii was great - all those red chili peppers you see in Napoli are not chili peppers at all! The meal was a nice sampler with an antipasto, pasta dish, and dessert. One beer, wine, or soda was also included. The walk to Mt Vesuvius was long and hot, but that was also exactly as described. It's not much of an informative experience, but more of a bucket list item. Overall, we had a great time and are glad we did this tour.
We are so happy to hear that everything went smoothly and without stress. Mery’s engaging guiding style and Antonio’s smooth driving represent the absolute best of Worldtours!

I went on the small group tour in July - Emanuela was our guide. I had to go to the main train station for my pickup, but this was not a problem. I met Emanuela promptly and then boarded the tourist Van. The small group was friendly and helpful to each other - I like the small group tours best! (Worth the extra $) We started the tour in Pompeii. Emanuela introduced us to a separate tour guide to walk the grounds at Pompeii. The Pompeii tour lasted two hours. Pompeii is in incredible to see - The two hour tour of Pompeii was the right amount of time to get a real feel for what took place with the volcano eruption. Pompeii is bigger than your imagination - You have to see this sight to appreciate the amount of excavation that has taken place! Lunch was excellent with the wine tasting! I made it to the top of Mount Vesuvius! The walk is not too difficult - You do need a good pair of walking or hiking shoes! Emanuela is a real nice girl! The driver dod a good job. Memorable Experience for sure!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We are thrilled to hear that you had a memorable experience on our small group tour and that the 2-hour visit was the perfect introduction to Pompeii. It is great to know you enjoyed the wine tasting lunch and successfully reached the crater of Mt. Vesuvius. We will gladly pass your kind words along to Emanuela and our driver for their excellent service. We hope to welcome you back for another great excursion in the future!
This is a good tour for the money. Dayana takes care of you throughout the day. The lunch was okay, but well worth the cost. No complaints here. I also hope you get Thomas as your guide in pompeii. He's laid- back and easy to follow, and he's pretty funny at times.

Had an amazing time on this whole tour. First, the meeting pick-up was easy. Nadia texted us to verify where we’d get picked up at. The whole process was smooth. Communication during the entire day was great (from where to meet at, in how long, etc.) When we got to Pompeii, we met our tour guide, Diana. We had a group of 10 people, and she was fantastic. Fluent in English, attentive to all the questions we had, and was very personable, even in trying to understand our story and who we are. If you get a tour in Pompeii, ask for Diana. Then for lunch, we went to a restaurant and had a full course meal (app, main course, desert) and wine tasting. Very much worth it. Lastly, hiking Mt. Vesuvius was an adventure. Burns your legs quite a bit and it may be tiring in the moment, but it’s worth it, and sure beats sitting on a plane for hours. Overall, an amazing experience and well worth it. I just wish we had seen Hernaculum, but that wasn’t part of this tour. Something to visit for next time:)
Thank you for sharing your comprehensive feedback regarding our combined excursion. At Worldtours, our objective is to provide a meticulously coordinated day, blending proactive communication, elite historical guiding, and high-quality culinary experiences.
