Seamless transportation. Hike was challenging but worth the hike up for all the views. Audio guide was a nice distraction from the hike but well informative
Whole experience was 10/10. We were right on time with everything! Staff were super friendly, they even gave us a call to make sure we didn’t get lost and knew exactly where the meet up point was. Bus ride was quick to the mountain. They take you about half way and then we climbed up 40mins to 1hr up the mountain! You are able to climb up at your own pase as long as you make it back on time to depart. Had lots of time for pictures! Views we’re incredible, super cool experience
This was the highlight of our cruise. While it was steep to get up to the top (I’m 66 having cancer treatments) we took many breaks as did others but it was worth it. Also there are 2 places at the top for drinks and souvenirs which we didn’t expect. Going down much easier. Highly recommend and very affordable.
We booked this trip as we were too late to find our own tickets. It was a smooth transfer from Napoli Centrale station, and we were given plenty of time at Vesuvius (c. 2 hours) before the return journey.
The excursion was good, but the audio guide did not work at Vesuvius. There are not enough trash cans at Vesuvius. There is nothing at any of the stops above.
Buenos días, lamentamos mucho su experiencia. Le invitamos a contactarnos la próxima vez, ya que no hemos recibido ninguna solicitud al respecto, para resolver cualquier problema con la audioguía. Asimismo, no nos hacemos responsables de la falta de loncheras u otros servicios no incluidos en nuestro paquete. Las reseñas son fundamentales para nosotros, por lo que le pedimos que, en el futuro, solo reseñe lo que haya comprado. ¡Esperamos verlo pronto para que disfrute de uno de nuestros fantásticos servicios!
The trip to Vesuvius was quite nice. However, we only had 1,5 hours to climb the crater and come back, which was quite short - we expected at least 2 hours. At the point I made a reservation for this trip, its duration was listed as 4-5 hours, but in the end we were back in Napoli at 12:30 (started past 9 AM). Also, the audioguide wasn't included in the price, we had to pay when downloading it, and it didn't work anyway because of the bad reception on Vesuvius.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience — we're glad the trip to Vesuvius left you with a good overall impression! That said, we want to address your points honestly. You're right that the duration listed at the time of your booking was outdated — we have since updated the information to better reflect the actual timing of the tour, and we apologize for the confusion this caused. We understand how important it is to set the right expectations before departure. Regarding the audioguide: it is indeed included in the price, and we're sorry you encountered difficulties downloading or using it. Reception on Vesuvius is notoriously limited, which can unfortunately affect the app's performance — it's something we actively flag to guests in advance, and we regret that this wasn't communicated clearly enough in your case. We hope these issues don't overshadow what was, by your own words, quite a nice experience — and we'd love to welcome you back for another tour in the area!
Walk very crowded. Distance shorter than I expected. It was important to me to get as close to and onto Vesuvius as I could as I have long been fascinated by it.
Do not venture out if you are not in shape because it is a tough climb: 150 meters of elevation over 1.5 km
40 minutes late departure. Guide delayed by servicing people from another trip and waiting for people who showed up late. Less time on sight. Information is insufficient.
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry the departure was delayed — we understand how frustrating it can be when a tour doesn't start on time, especially when you're planning your day around it. In this case, the delay was caused by our guide wrapping up with a previous group and waiting for a few late arrivals, which occasionally happens in a busy touring schedule. It's never ideal, and we appreciate your patience. We'd like to gently clarify, however, that the time spent on Vesuvius itself was in line with the tour programme, and our guides aim to provide thorough information throughout the experience. We're sorry if that didn't come across as clearly as it should have on the day. We hope to have the chance to offer you a smoother experience in the future!
Amazing view and very kind staff. You can see all of Naples! Would do it again.
