Sasa our guide was phenomenal!! He was a wealth of knowledge and had great energy and sense of humor. His passion for the content was evident and I only wish he had been my history teacher when I was learning about Pompeii!! We wish we had more time with him. Completely worth the money and time!!

The guide was extremely knowledgeable about Pompeii and claimed to be a third generation guide. He took the time to add context to the tour by first explaining the history of Pompeii and the geography before the cataclysmic eruption. Then he explained the different classes of Pompeii and what the town square looked like at the time of destruction. This all took a very long time and started to annoy me because I wanted to get on with the tour. But it really paid off in the end because when we did start moving through the ruins I felt I had a much better understanding of what I was looking at. He was also very good an engaging with our children (10 & 7) and was able to add context appropriate for them.

We had a great guy that grew up in Pompei. He was so knowledgeable on the subject. His degree is Ancient Roman History. Once the tour was over, we stayed another 2 1/2 hours to walk around on our own. It was raining earlier that morning and didn’t do much more than sprinkle the rest of the day.
