Naples: Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius Shared Regular Group

7 hours

Moderate

Discover the ancient ruins of Pompeii and hike to the summit of Mount Vesuvius on a day trip from Naples. Choose between two scenic hiking trails and learn about the area from expert guides.

Begin your day with a guided visit to the archaeological site of Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A professional archaeologist will lead you through temples, shops, villas, theaters, and bathhouses, sharing insights into everyday life in the ancient Roman city. Before entering, stop at a cameo workshop, where you can admire the traditional art of shell carving and use the restrooms.


After this historical experience, enjoy a delicious lunch break. In the early afternoon, continue to one of Europe’s most iconic volcanoes, Mount Vesuvius. Once at 1000 meters of altitude, choose between two scenic hiking trails:


Crater Trail: a panoramic walk to the summit with breathtaking views over the Bay of Naples.


Valley of Hell: a more adventurous path through lava flows, lava caves, and unique geological formations.


Both trails are guided and suitable for travelers in good physical condition. Expert guides from the Vesuvius National Park will enhance the experience with fascinating insights into the area's geological and historical background.

          This was a fantastic experience! Beautiful drive, well planned tour, very nice bus. No regrets at all booking this independently instead of through the cruise line. We went the same places the cruise line excursions did and had a much better value!  ... Our tour guide was excellent as well! Highly recommend!
