Easy bus trip from Rome. The only tour I could find that gave plenty of time to explore Pompeii (others seemed to be just a two hour stop). Nice host on bus. Enjoyed the day.

Pompeii from Rome

The tour takes a rest stop at a little family store coming to and from Pompeii and the store owners are quite hostile if you don't by anything. Other than that the tour guide is great and so is Pompei

Our guide Claudia was fantastic

We were satisfied with the organisation, with the bus service. Our guide was well-prepared, active and shared a lot of useful information. We also liked the shop at the stop during our trip. It is a good money saving solution for a one-day trip.
