We had a lovely time on the tour. Positano is absolutely the beautiful. Our guide at Pompeii (I believe his name was Vincenzo) was fantastic. His passion for his culture was palpable. It was a perfect day!

Sehr gut organisiert. Der deutsche guide für den Bus war erkrankt, aber André, der spanische Guide, hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben, uns Deutsche zumindest auf Englisch zu führen. Das hat super geklappt. Vittorio, der deutsche Guide in Pompeji und Neapel, hat den Ausflug für uns einzigartig gemacht. Sehr fundiert und begeistert führte er uns und verlor nie den Blick für seine Gruppe und ihre Interessen oder Bedürfnisse. Ein absolutes Juwel unter den Tourguides, dem man die Begeisterung für das, was er zeigt, sofort anmerkt. Vielen Dank für dieses tolle Erlebnis! Wir werden es weiterempfehlen!
