Very Good Tour

Sandie_V, Sep 2025

The tour was really well-organised with plenty of time at both Vesuvius and Pompeii. I would highly recommend this company because they made everything so easy. Vesuvius was a struggle for my sloth-like level of fitness, but there is a stopping point at the crater where you can either turn round or continue further up. Apart from that it's a straight slog up with no benches. However, it's worth it for the views alone. Pompeii is just huge and you'd need about a week to do it fully. Personally I preferred Herculaneum and a visit to the Naples Museum, where you can see a lot of the items excavated from Pompeii but without the crowds.

Convenient minibus, good audio guide, bus stop difficult to find, tour operator not available

Katja_F, Jan 2026

The tour was well organized overall, but only 3 stars, because it was very difficult to find the departure point of the bus. The instructions said there were employees in yellow T-shirts, there was no one far and wide, no blackboard, no office, nothing. He drives in front of a hotel, which was also not named, a stop is nowhere visible. When we were worried about missing the bus, I was only told via the contact function in Viator that the bus leaves on time and could not wait. No help whatsoever. The contact details of the tour provider I had to laboriously search, after a waiting loop a friendly employee explained to me at the last minute where the bus runs.
