Shore excursion to Pompeii

[pattimow]

We are onboard the MSC Seashore April 12th departing Rome.  We want to see Pompeii while we are in Naples port, however the only excursion offered by MSC is an "On Your Own" tour.  We'd like to have a guide. We are bringing our kids 14 and 11.  I was told to check out Shore Excursion Group dot come website; just wondering if anyone has used them or if any one has another recommendation?  Also not interested in a private tour option.

Not sure if I understand what you're asking for. Shore Excursion group IS a private tour agency. 

 

You can take the train or bus to Pompeii on your own and hope to engage a guide at the entrance. They are usually available but no guarantees (and they like to put together groups of about 10-12 people per tour).

What I meant is I am looking for a group tour, not a private one on one type of tour. Ideally get picked up at the port with a group of 15 or so and stay with that group for the day.

We are actually booked on the Pompeii, Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast tour with the Shore Excursions Group. The tour sounds very good. Have not used them before so hope it meets our expectations!
