Mount Vesuvius Tours

Stand on the volcano that buried Pompeii: Mount Vesuvius, the only active volcano on mainland Europe, rises dramatically over the Bay of Naples. Tours drive you up to the trailhead for a walk to the crater rim, where you can peer into the smouldering cone and enjoy sweeping views — often combined with the ruins below.
