Traveler reviews
Outstanding excursion
Very interesting and great experience. Knowledgeable guides . The views were amazing and outstanding lunch right on the Mediterraneans. The vans were very comfortable too. Worth the time and money.
Wonderful day in Pompeii and Sorrento!
This was a wonderful experience and such an amazing value. We felt completely taken care of by Luca and Josh from start to finish. The meals were excellent and the tour of Pompeii was fascinating. Everything was so convenient and the views overlooking Sorrento with the music playing was especially memorable. Crown Tours even arranged a transfer for us after the tour because we were staying near Sorrento and not going back to Rome. I would highly recommend booking with Crown Tours. This was one of the highlights of our trip for sure.
Amazing Day in Pompeii & Sorrento
We had a wonderful experience on our Pompeii and Sorrento tour on Saturday, September 19, 2026! From start to finish, everything was well organized, prompt, safe, and enjoyable. Luigi, our Pompeii guide, was fantastic. He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, easygoing, and engaging. He made the history of Pompeii interesting and easy to follow, and we really enjoyed exploring the site with him. Our driver was also excellent throughout the day. He was professional, safety-conscious, friendly, and very helpful. He even took the time to take photos of me and my partner, which we really appreciated. We arrived at our destinations on time and felt well taken care of throughout the entire trip. Sorrento was absolutely beautiful. We had plenty of time to relax, enjoy the seaside views, and take in the atmosphere. The food was delicious as well. One of my favorite surprises was an unexpected stop on the way to Sorrento, where we were able to try limoncello and a refreshing lemon ice. It was such a fun addition to the day and a perfect little break along the way. The scenery was beautiful, and it gave us another opportunity to take some great photos. Overall, this was an excellent experience and one of the highlights of our trip. Everything was well planned without feeling rushed, and we had a great time from beginning to end. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Pompeii and Sorrento!
