Pompeii tours - help, advice and instructions!
At Napoli Centrale station before your guided Pompeii tour from Rome, here's some important advice! If you are lost, late, or just need assistance relating to Pompeii tours from Rome, call us on +353 1 443 4403.
Tours of Pompeii - a few pointers to help you on your way! You should have already booked your Pompeii tour online, this is a golden rule. The same goes for guided tours of Herculaneum. Do not go to Pompeii from Rome or anywhere else without booking tours of Pompeii in advance. Reason being because just like Rome, at venue entrance points, you'll likely be gathered on to a tour that just won't be what you came for.
Another word of advice, when you do book online, avoid tour companies with 1000s of reviews. Too many reviews means big groups and impersonal service for a rather detached experience. Always book with Pompeii tour operators that have somewhere between 10 and 50 reviews on TripAdvisor, for example. Besides, most Pompeii tour reviews are fake.
Timing matters! You will have your Pompeii tour ticket voucher. Pay close attention to meeting point location using the Google Maps link thereon. If there is no Google Maps link, enter the meeting point address on Google search and Google will guide you. Did you know that you must be at the meeting point 15 minutes before tour departure time? Think ahead and arrive early!
For those of you who have booked a Pompeii tour from Rome, scrutinize your train ticket to get the service number and departure time. You might be surprised about how many travellers get on the wrong train or even use the wrong station! At this point, Google "Roma Termini" and save the location.
We hope this article about booking Pompeii tours from Naples, Rome, or elsewhere - and timing your day to perfection - is useful. Let us know in comments if you have anything to add.
