Discovering the crater of the mythical Vesuvius was a dream. Getting there was very easy thanks to the shuttle bus that drops you off at the bottom of the small path leading up to it. On the other hand, I found the service very expensive, given that there isn't even a small paper guide to the volcano!

Compliments for arranging early entry to Vesuvius, as otherwise we would have had to wait 40 minutes until the scheduled time. What could be improved is letting visitors know in advance that with online tickets, they need to check in with the staff member wearing a yellow shirt.

Pompei is a must visit, large and impressive. But be sure to stop at the restrooms when entering and bring your own Food and drinks (there are free waterpoints) because there is no Food aan beverage other than the restaurant by the station (which has a good kitchen!).

- Everything you get: Enjoy fast-track access to Vesuvius National Park and head straight to the crater of the Great Cone with a digital audio guide or printed guidebook. Avoid waiting at the entrance and make the most of your time exploring one of Italy’s most iconic volcanoes.

With my wife we have managed to reach the crater, it has cost me a lot because the COVID left my lungs half battered. In the crater we had breakfast, excellent chat with the vendors while waiting for the bus, very good experience.

An unmissable glimpse into how the Ancient Romans lived. There are so many interesting houses, streets, and monuments to explore in Pompeii.

No audio-guide or info supplied and some confusion to take the transfer bus back to Pompeii as the one we should get on was already full and had to wait for the next one. I understand that August is a busy time but felt a bit of a mess in the bus area in front of the entrance to Vesuvio. Still, awesome views!

The time is not enough to enjoy the Mt. Vesuvius. You should add 30 minutes minimum for the experience. The rest was great.

What a dilapidated minibus we were put in with windows hanging and dangling and shock absorbers that were worn out so you thought your last hour had come. I am 183 cm tall and normally built and my legs couldn't be there at all, there is so little space. At the top, the instructions themselves were given in an unclear language so those of us at the back of the bus didn't understand what the speed talk was about? Problems getting in past the guard because your paper ticket had to be used and not your app. blatantly strange. We were delayed 10 minutes out of the 25 minutes it took to get up, but we got up and enjoyed the view and then we had to rush down to catch the bus back - otherwise we had to buy a taxi which was also a tourist trap. I wonder what it would have cost us if we had come down too late? The descent... The bus driver drove down too fast in a curve so we tipped far to one side and almost fell over. So we sat there with our hearts in our throats thinking our lives depended on a driver who drove at a breakneck pace. But if nothing else the sun was shining and we had the most beautiful view of the whole place. That gives it three stars, everything else was just another tourist trap.

Very good for the tickets. However, I had not been informed that I still had to stop, pay for parking and pay for a shuttle to get on and off. The people weren't very friendly either. And the accompaniment was just a guide we already had... Rather disappointing

The organization was perfect. The round-trip time between the bus parking lot and the cone of Vesuvius is correct. Only downside: the bus driver spends the whole trip on the phone, driving one-handed on very steep roads.

Awsome trip to the vulcano, but very expensive and no audio guide was provided as desribed in the booking confirmation. It is easy to go there and only entrance tickets are needed

It all worked out, we received the tickets in exchange for the code. Quick admission without any problems. The travel guide is an interesting little book (and not a person!)

A convenient way to take a walk on Vesuvius as an alternative to regular buses and their schedules. Clearly, you pay for the service

Transportation was prompt-the ride up and down the mountain was harrowing but that's due to the roads. The "4" is because there wasn't a guide and there wasn't enough time for a guide anyway. You had 25 minutes to get up the mountain, 20 minutes at the peak, and 25 minutes to get back down and you got back on the bus.

This experience was very good. Not too busy. Toilets weren't clean, no toilet paper so bring your own. Well worth a visit to see crater. Staff pleasant

No guide or audioguide provided. Time on site could have been longer, so we had to hurry in order to complete the tour.
