Very busy but enjoyable

David_M, Aug 2023

Had to change our trip as not enough people on 1/2 day to Pompeii, so we ended up on the trip to Pompeii and Vesuvius. Picked up from our hotel by a very helpful driver Antonio. Pompeii is a very big site to see in a couple of hours, didn't see as much as we would have liked, but enjoyed the experience. Off to Vesuvius on 2nd part of our trip a bit of a climb in 30deg but we'll worth it for the views and the fact it is still an active volcano!

Rough drivers

Transportation was punctual But drivers were always tailgating, morning driver yelled to other drivers after driving intensely close to them in a very aggressive manner, could easily be improved.

Public Transit and a ticket for the wrong enterance

Travis_V, Jul 2022

Pompeii was awesome but we had many issues with this excursion. We were given one meeting point in the app when booked, but had I not checked the “contact the operator” space I would have never found our actual tickets or the supposed meeting place which was also wrong even though they tried to make it easy with a maps link (from Italian google…also frustrating) We had to get directions from another travel place. The transit was public and not chartered as I was expecting it would be. The skip the line tickets were for a different entrance to Pompeii than where the bus stops, which if you don’t speak Italian can be difficult to figure out. Departure time on the booking is 1:30 but it was actually 1:20, but since it’s public transit we had to just grab the next bus at 2:20 since we showed up at 1:25 for the 1:30 bus. This says it is a half day tour, but since you basically just get a round trip public transit ticket you can return anytime that works for you any hour on the :20 of every hour. The skip the line ticket was a waste because we spent easily the amount of time needed to get a ticket trying to find the right enterance for our skip the line ticket. You could save and get better directions just taking public transit at the port terminal then waiting in line for your ticket. This wasn’t any more convenient than getting a ticket in the line at Pompeii. I’m giving it three stars because to their credit the agency was responsive when I was trying to figure this all out and even tried to call me but I missed it. It just WAS NOT EASY and required a lot of questions to be answered. Not a low stress booking so keep this in mind.
