Additional Information

This expedition offers an unforgettable journey, taking in the sights of the Bay of Naples from atop a mountain. Kicking off daily from Naples, the tour pauses at Pompeii to gather the remaining travelers before heading to the base of the volcano. A restaurant stop at this point provides mesmerizing views and local culinary delights. A wine tasting session introduces wines characteristic to the region, produced from local grape varieties, narrating the area’s history through each glass, from Lacryma Christi to Caprettone. The voyage proceeds to a height of 1000 meters, leading to the ticket station from where the trek towards the volcano’s peak begins. Here you can view the crater and learn from the National Park’s volcanology guide. Please note: We require all names for the Vesuvius visit.

Fu.n times - Antonio (driver) and Maria (,tour guide) were very nice and professional. I was picked up on time and the wine and lunch were fantastic. Hiking up vesuvius was challenging and fun. Would highly reccomend this tour.

Great day on a volcano - The trek to the crate rim and views from there . The lunch and wine tasting were good too. Our guide was knowledgeable and good fun.

Very poor value for money - This was poor for the money I paid, we were driven to a restaurant for a very small lunch and 3 very small samples of wine, then we were driven to the volcano and told to follow the path its about 30 minutes to the top, then we were driven back to our collection points, there was no explanation about where we were or the types of wine we were drinking.
