I especially liked the commentary of the bus guide from Rome to Pompeii as it was interesting and had humour. Pompeii itself was amazing. The blue grotto was spectacular as was the Capri village tour. The Capri guide was very helpful.

The tour ran very smoothly from the time they picked us up until we switched buses in Pompei. It was a little confusing at that transition, but it all worked out and everything else went well. My husband and I enjoyed the trip.

This part of Italy is beautiful. But the tour company is absolutely unreliable. You are traded off like cattle between different guides and modes of transportation without anyone telling you what the plan is or what to expect. One day we were left behind. The Tour company claimed they called out for us. We were there early to catch the bus and I even asked bus drivers if they were our tour and everyone said no. They give you a list of emergency numbers, NONE of which work or are accurate. In fact that day I called the coordinator 20 times and to date NEVER heard back from her. This is the person who specifically said call me if you have any issues. I ended up spending $135 additional for something I had already paid for. By the way don't expect to get anything back if that does happen because no one will take responsibility. On the last day we booked a private tour, that was a complete joke and frankly scary. Because of the shambles of the tour the day before we had asked about the private tour, i.e. who was taking us etc. On the day of, the person who was suppose to be our guide was 40 minutes late. We get in the car and when I asked questions the guide just sang to us and didn't answer anything...seriously sang to us! Then he took us to see a terrace, that turned out to be his and then told us quickly that another person was taking us. This happened quickly and without any explanation. Keep in mind we were two women traveling on this tour on our own. To say that this was uncomfortable is an understatement. My daughter and I even thought of saying we were feeling ill and asking to turn back. The second person ended up being very nice,. However we had requested an English tour. He did not speak English. Which given the total weirdness of the situation would have made us feel comfortable if we could have had a better explanation of what was occurring. This is sad because the area is beautiful, but we were so stressed the entire time because you could not depend on the tour company to pick you up, explain the plan for the day, pick up the phone if you needed help, etc. The Hotel in Serrento was the beautiful. This is the only reason I am giving this tour a 2. If you take this tour be prepared to have issues. As an FYi we met at least two more groups of families traveling who had VERY similar issues. For example one couple had documentation tha the bus would pick them up at 745. The bus came for them at 7. When they told the driver that their documents said 745, the driver was not understanding or cared.

Beautiful cities, full of history, very nice people, and beautiful landscapes. The guides were also wonderful, telling the history of the places in a very interesting and engaging way.

Great tour with many activities and professional tour guides. Lunch in Pompeii could be better with food and services. Overall a very good experience for us. Did appointed with your advertising of Amalfi coast. We ended up paying extra for the trip to Amalfi. It could be viewed as mid-advertising here.
