We found the tour to be a great introduction to our visit to Pompeii. Our guide, Tony, had a lovely balance of sharing facts, anecdotes and comedy and the two hours flew by. He was also able to answer all of our questions and direct us to where we might want to go when the tour finished. After that, we were free to continue exploring the city - which is a sprawling maze of streets. Pompeii is definitely worth a visit, even without the tour, although we found the information from our tour guide added a lot of value to understanding what we were seeing and how life would have been back then.

Be very prepared for a lot of walking, however it is 100% worth it! The history and surroundings are absolutely breathtaking. Our guide was so informative and made sure to leave time for everyone to take photographs at each stop. Highly recommend this tour, don't forget comfortable shoes!
