Excellent tour with a few surprises
Great day! Our driver Alessandro, a native Pompeiian, was prompt, safe and enjoyable as he drove us to Pompeii. Andrew was our tour guide and he was fabulous giving us extra care on the tour. Then Alessandro picked us up again and drove us to the Cantina de Vesuvio winery for a quick and easy tour and light lunch with wine. After Alessandro drove us to Mt. Vesuvias for our hike up taking extra care to ensure we could still contact him when we were done. Lastly, he drove us back to Sorrento where we popped in to the Garguilo Olive Oil location. He took extra time with us today and we had a great time. Both our guide and driver were excellent and a wealth of knowledge.

Wonderful time in Pompeii with Wine!!
We had an amazing time. Angelo gave us a five star experience. Highly recommend if you are in Sorrento. We were picked up in Sorrento and he connected us with a guide in Pompeii. He then suggested a winery where we had a wonderful wine tasting and lunch with clear views of Vesuvius. Vey relaxing day. 10 out of 10 experience.

Pompei tour
Victtorio was great! He was a careful driver. He took time to point out interesting sites and gave us info about the towns we were in. I especially loved his enthusiasm for his home town! The tour of Pompei was fascinating.

Awesome Angelo!
We had Angelo as our driver and he was wonderful and very kind. We felt safe, as his driving was impeccable. He was very personable. We laughed and felt we could relax. He was prompt and even stopped at a beautiful viewpoint to take our picture over sorrento on the travel back from Pompei
Response from the operator: Hi, thank you for taking time to leave a review and share your experience with other potential clients. We’re glad you had a good time with our driver. Do not hesitate to contact us again if you come back in town :)

Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sorrento.
How much does Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $675 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sorrento usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sorrento is not rushed.
Is Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Sorrento, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sorrento can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sorrento and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Full Day Tour Ruins of Pompei and Wine Tasting Experience start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sorrento within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sorrento?
+
On Outty we rank every Sorrento experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sorrento Farm and Food Experience including Olive Oil, Limoncello, Wine tasting, Pizza School with Wine and Limoncello Tasting in a Local Farm, Authentic Farm Tour with Pizza, Cheese, Wine & Limoncello Tasting. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sorrento?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sorrento?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+
