Lello is an excellent tour guide and exceeded all of our expectations. His deep knowledge of the history and features of Pompeii made the place of ruins come alive. He kept our group of 7 people engaged throughout the 3-hour tour. The experience would not have come close if we had done a self-guided tour. More

I reviewed many tours of the area before arriving and from these recommendations, Tours of Pompeii sounded the best. Now having just got back to the hotel in Naples (door to door service too) I can say that they are just absolutely excellent, from the original enquiry to the actual tour....faultless. I wanted someone for 'two 50 year olds' that... More

I feel like "family" with our incredible tour guide. This was the best of the best as far as our entire trip tours. Lello was very informative and we all had a great time. Without this tour you could not fully appreciate Rome. More

Six couples I was traveling with wanted to tour Pompeii in April. I researched tour services and guides online and found by far the best reviews were for Tours of Pompeii and more particularly for a guide named Lello. The reviews of Lello's tours were glowing so I booked our tour through Tours of Pompeii and requested that Lello be... More

We had a very good day in Pompeii with our excellent guide Lello. The 3-hour tour was very interesting, lively and pleasant for the 3 of us (a couple with our 12 year-old daughter). Due to his extensive knowledge of the site, Lello was able to show us the most interesting parts while avoiding the crowds. He explained everything very... More

We weren't originally going to get a guide for Pompeii but are very happy that we changed our minds. After being there, we cannot imagine getting as much out of the experience on our own as we did by having a guide. Our guide, Lello, made the entire experience engaging and even though we had done some research in advance... More

If you are visiting Pompei it will probably be the only time in your life. Why waste that time looking at ruins with just a guide book. Lello our guide was fantastic. He took us through the events of the day of the eruption. The lives and livelihoods of the people living there. He opened our minds to ancient roman... More

Six senior couples from Norway visited Pompeii and Herculaneum with Tours of Pompeii in April. We had booked a full day tour with guide, visiting Pompeii and Herculaneum. The office (with Julie) was very helpful in advising us in advance. We started in the morning in Pompeii, meeting our guide Lello near the entrance to the ruins. All of us... More

My mom and I had a tour with Lello of Pompeii and it was wonderful. From the time we were picked up at our hotel until we meet Lello at Pompeii we were entertained, educated and excited. I had been to Pompeii before, but this was my mom's first time and I learned much from Lello and we decided was... More

We settled on the 2 hour tour and were assigned Mena. We took the train from Naples and were horribly late. The trains were running behind by over 40 minutes. I called Mena and she assured it was fine and she would wait for us and meet us at the train station. Mena's command of english and her knowledge of... More
