Naples street food guided tour

Efficient organisation both before the day of the tour and on the actual day. The guides were very personable and knowledgeable and able to answer individual questions. The tour of Pompeii was conducted at a good pace allowing time to observe and think about what one was seeing. The time allocated for lunch was good as was that spent at Vesuvius. It's a significant uphill trek - glad this was in early October not the high summer temperatures. The views along the way and at the crater were well worth the effort.

We loved this experience—there were only 8 guests and we all enjoyed ourselves (even those who weren’t so sure they wanted to take a cooking class)! Madda led us outdoors for a tour of the lovely gardens, featuring the herbs and vegetables we used in our recipes—as well as the lemons! Our Chef Michele and Madda were fantastic instructors. Not only did we learn to make pasta dough and filled ravioli, limoncello, and tiramisu, we also enjoyed bruschetta and limoncello spritzers. There was lots of laughter and some great photo opportunities. We highly recommend this class!!

Our tour guide “Lou” was personable and knowledgeable. As we traveled from Sorrento to Pompeii, she shared with us many historical, agricultural, and cultural insights about the region. Sorrento is beautiful and the terraced vineyards and olive and lemon groves fascinating. The bus is comfortable and air conditioned. We were happy to depart at 7:30 am to beat the crowds and the afternoon heat. Lou was a wealth of information regarding the culture and history of Pompeii. Seeing the many ruins, including homes, ornate tile work, ovens, streets designed for Roman carriages and entering the remains of Roman baths was amazing. A step into the past. Very worthwhile tour!

Unfortunately our request to reschedule due to weather was denied. We were concerned about safety on the narrow road to Amalfi in the pouring rain and preferred to forfeit the cost rather than risk it.
