thank you for choosing us

Much more than an excursion: a fascinating immersion in the heart of Vesuvius with an engaging volcanologist.

JeanPhilippe_J, May 2026

Our excursion to Vesuvius this morning with Lello was a remarkable experience. Much more than just a guide, Lello turned out to be an engaging volcanologist, an educator, and particularly attentive to everyone. With him, we do not just visit: we understand, we learn, and we truly travel to the heart of the volcano's history, all while feeling confident at every step. This outing made us want to go back with him to discover other exceptional volcanoes and landscapes. A big thank you also to Viator for the impeccable organization, as well as to Gennaro for his availability and kindness.
