“A long bus ride, but a truly incredible experience. Pompeii was amazing and I could have spent several days wandering the city. The hike to Vesuvius was no joke. I consider myself to have an average level of fitness and the walk to the top almost took me out. The path on the way down is also pretty treacherous. The path is loose gravel and lots of people lose their footing so be warned. The pizza lunch was fabulous! Overall, an excellent tour!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 2,901 reviews · 7 hours (approx.) · from $149

Spend about seven hours exploring Pompeii with a guide, eating pizza, and hiking Mount Vesuvius. The tour includes transport, entrance fees, and pickup in Naples. Guides such as Elisa, Alba, Michele, Bernadette, and Maria have led highly praised Pompeii visits, though weather and tight timing can affect the volcano stop.

“I'm rating it 5 stars although we couldn't do Vesuvius because it was closed due to pouring rain, logistics went into the dumpster because of the rain, our (Spanish) guide couldn't even arrive and they had to replace our guide, THAT BEING SAID, our guide Santiago was absolutely amazing, I dare say the best possible outcome was getting Santiago, we enjoyed very much our tour in the rain, sadly after the tour you'll want to spend 2 more weeks exploring the ruins with Santiago but we only had 2 hours.”

“Excellent organisation and great trip. Disappointingly the weather meant we couldn’t see anything once we got up to the top and it was very wet. But you can’t control the weather. The trek up to the top is quite severe and I found it difficult but I’m happy that I can say I did it.”

Spend eight hours with Worldtours visiting Pompeii with an archaeologist, eating at a local vineyard, and hiking Mount Vesuvius. Guides such as Federica, Giovanni, and Raffaella may lead different departures. Choose the crater trail or, in poor weather, the lava-filled Valley of Hell.

“Giovanni was a very friendly and energetic guide, and spoke to my group in English and Spanish. The bus was very comfortable, and I highly recommend booking the option for the wine tasting. BEWARE! COME HUNGRY! We didn’t realize the wine tasting included several delicious courses, cheeses, and dessert before embarking on a Vesuvius hike. The view from the restaurant was gorgeous. A wonderful experience!”

Travel from Sorrento or Vico Equense to Mount Vesuvius, walk to the crater at 1,000 meters, eat pizza with a view, then tour Pompeii with a local guide. Guides such as Maddalena, Max, Ilenia, and Bernadette vary by departure.

“A great way to see Mt Vesuvius and Pompeii. The hike up the volcano was moderate and you need to be pretty quick to get up and back in the time they provide. Make sure you wear good footwear too. Getting to see the crater with smoke coming out was incredible! The tour at Pompeii was great, the place is huge so it was nice getting shown all the most interesting parts with a guide. The lunch was a simple pizza bust very tasty. Only downside was the bus, it was quite old a bit cramped, the aircon was also freezing for everyone on board.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 674 reviews · 3.5 hours · from $75

Travel by air-conditioned minibus from your Naples hotel, station, or cruise port to Vesuvius National Park. Your Italian driver handles the road and entry ticket, then gives you roughly 1.5 to 2 hours to hike independently around the crater at 1,200 meters.

“There was some initial confusion with pickup time provided but our driver waited for us. He provided us with interesting facts about the volcano on the drive up. Sit close to the front if you want to hear everything because there isn’t a microphone. We had about 1.5 hours to hike to the top, look around and hike back down. The hike up is challenging, but you should still have lots of time to look around and take pics, grab a coffee/snacks/souvenirs at the shops at the top before heading down. We had a very cloudy day so no view of Napoli or the crater except for about a minute…”
