Half-Day Trip to Mt. Vesuvius from Naples
Overview
This 4-hour tour starts with pickup near your accommodation in Naples. From there, a comfortable minibus takes you through Vesuvius National Park, offering scenic views of pine forests, wildflowers, volcanic landscapes, and the Bay of Naples. A wine tasting and a visit to a vineyard on the very slopes of the volcano are included.
Choose between two guided hiking options:
1. The Crater Route, leading to the summit of Mount Vesuvius with panoramic views and a look into the crater.
