Walking around Pompeii, there were so many people that were either there on their own or with large tour groups. We were in a group of 10, with a knowledgeable guide that could easily answer our questions and get us in and around everything. I couldn’t have been more glad. The day was scheduled perfectly, with just about the right amount of time everywhere (though I may have liked a few more minutes at the gift shop). Lunch was absolutely lovely!!! The food was amazing. I wasn’t offered wine, and though my trip name said I had paid for wine, my guide said I had not. So maybe be sure that you have paid for it, if that is important to you. I personally was fine without - the walk up Vesuvius was hot and I felt much better having stuck to water. Though Vesuvius itself isn’t active, so there isn’t much to see inside the crater, the views are astounding and the chance to walk on the edge of history shouldn’t be missed. Memorable day.

I loved the Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius with Lunch & Wine tour. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy! Connie was a fantastic guide, Lino was a great driver, and Leo taught us a lot of interesting things about Pompeii. The hike to the top of Mt. Vesuvius was amazing. I would definitely do it again. The landscape scenery is beautiful from the top of the volcano. It's so surreal to know you're looking into the crater of one of the most famous volcanos. The lunch and wine was a fun bonus to the day's activities. We loved the wine, and the setting is in a very cute vineyard. I would highly recommend the full tour.

The tour and the sites were amazing, but what made it real special was our amazing guide Claudia

I’ve been on a lot of tours in particularly while I’ve traveled here to Italy. I think I’ve been on seven or eight and I would have to put Claudia at the top of the list for just being fun and making everybody feel special keeping track of everybody keeping the tour on schedule and making our day a memorable one. I said in another response rite commented on this tour that often times guides make us feel like it’s just another day at work and if you’ve seen tours that I’ve been on and seen tours where I haven’t left a response that’s primarily the reason I’d rather say nothing to say something negative about somebody but Claudia really made the day special made the day fun and made the day memorable.

Pompeii Tour and Wine Tasting w Lunch Pairing

Overall, this was an excellent Pompeii and wine tasting experience. The tour guide on the Archaeological Park of Pompeii was experienced and full of knowledge. Then we arrived at a restaurant and was led down to a wine pairing lunch. The waiter was fun and full of knowledge of the food and wine. The lunch was one our best lunches in Naples. It was comparable to any wine pairing in our home of Sonoma County CA. We did only give the tour a 3 star as the official tour guide of the van was not very informative and should have known and told us before ascending Vesuvius that there are NO BATHROOMS once you enter the park (so 2 hours climb) and the only bathroom outside the park forced you to purchase something to use the bathroom. If expectations were explained, then this tour would have had a higher rating.

What a day!

Everything was smooth sailing- my family I enjoyed a day with a knowledgeable guide in Pompeii, a lovely lunch with wine tasting, followed by a climb up Mr. Vesuvius. Highly recommend.

A packed day!

This was a full day excursion where everyone had to cooperate to stay on time. Lunch and wine tasting between Pompeii and Vesuvius was a much needed break but too rushed. We could have enjoyed the Vesu wine and food for much longer! We had a great guide, Thomás, at Pompeii, who helped us get the most from a short visit. We were lucky that the ruins were not crowded that day. Mt Vesuvius was a disappointment because of the fog. It was just a walk up a hill to over look the crater. A few informative signs. Probably should have spent more time in Pompeii.
