I agree with Christine, the Mondo shared tours are great. Check out their website. The RS Guide also recommends them.
Have a great trip !

I booked this tour from Airbnb for 3/20/25 and was very pleased with it. The reviews were very good, but I was a little concerned because the price was lower than what you see on Viator or other sites (less than $30 a person for the option without the ticket included). However, our guide Angelo was great. He was very knowledgeable and interactive with us. The park was empty enough that 2 hours felt like plenty of time since we did not have to wait anywhere to see anything.

We had about 10-12 people in our group (I had 5 in my group). It looks like you can even book a small group with just your party for less than $250.

I toured Pompeii on my own without the benefit of a tour guide in 2022, but wish I had hired a guide. The site is so fascinating that a guide would help bring it alive. However, if you use Rick's detailed guidebook, it will certainly suffice. Sometimes I hire a guide, sometimes I don't if I have a good guidebook because I read it in advance: Pompeii was something I wish I had hired a guide for.

Thank you all so much-while near Pompeii we are staying in Sant’Angelo. :)

I would have gotten so lost in Pompeii without a guide- the area is massive. It's difficult to comprehend Pompeii's size until you actually have your feet on that ground.

Agree with the other posters that you need a guide for Pompeii. The cheapest way to do is with the Mondo tours mentioned above.
