Allow extra time than advertised for this tour.

This tour was generally ok, but we based this tour time around the 6 hours timescale as advertised due to needing a timely return to port to make departure of our cruise ship. However, this turned into 7 hours and we were worried about not making it. Then we were told the bus coming to collect us had broken down. We were very concerned, but we made it. If booking this I would allow 7 hours, and not rely on the 6 as advertised.

Very underwhelming

Expensive for what it is. I loved hiking Vesuvius and exploring Pompeii, but there were no guides to help explain anything and it left the experience lacking. The people telling you what shuttle is yours paid no attention and if the drivers had not taken initiative to say where they were going and who they needed, some people would have been left behind. At Pompeii, they hand you an audioguide and a map then send you through the entrance across the street. No one mentions that it's not the main entrance so many people spent there time wandering lost and confused. It was a lot of money for what was basically a shuttle service.

A different experience

It could improve coordination (exit and return) of times between places. The guides did an excellent job. The volcano does not have safe and clean infrastructure to receive tourists They do not offer toilet facilities. That's a huge failure.

Vesuvius and Pompeii (lack of important info)

Full day, with glaring lack of information It would be interesting to mention to visitors to bring lunch to eat on the bus between Vesuvius and Pompeii. We climbed Mount Vesuvius which requires good physical condition. And we had 3 hours to walk the archaeological site of Pompeii. No indication to go to the restaurant on the main entrance (they let us in through the exit near the Coliseum) No indication where the casts of the people and the terrace gave a view of the whole site. Thanks to ChatGPT we found the castings. But as we did not know the existence of the terrace I could not look for it. (A friend who took another company gave me the information later from the terrace and restaurant when we were off site.)
