It was a great tour! Tour guides were prompt and easy to find. Wasn’t expecting to pick up additional guests on the way taking some time.

Pompeii half day trip

What a start to this trip we never received an email from Viator letting us know where we needed to meet for this trip We found 10 people with the same problem had no info from Viator. It was only when one lady in the group phone their travel agent in Massachusetts to find out some info that we actually found the Viator rep No apologise On the way to Pompeii the only thing the rep told us that when we get to Pompeii she will take us to the English guide. But the rep & driver just carried on talking like we were even in the bus The English guide Marie was very good and very informative But then when we finished we went back to the meeting point and was told to come back in 40 mins Which we did, we were just put on the bus back to the port just the driver no Viator rep The driver didn't take us back into port just dropped us beside a busy road

Our tour guide was great...

Our tour guide was great However, our pickup was pure confusion. We didn’t know if we were in the right place or who to look for. Also, we were dropped off far from the port and had to walk far to get back

Very hot with no...

Very hot with no opportunity to get water. Long wait to get back to cruise line No clear sign when we got to pick up point. Could not find them so had to go off airplane mode on my phone and call them. That cost me roaming charges.

2026-Naples Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius

Erika was everything and more for my first experience in Naples Excursion to Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius. She was the best history teacher with all the knowledge to give to her tour group. I was so enthralled with every time she spoke it was very vivid. She covered a lot and made my day better. Thanks for very much 😀
