The transport was...

The transport was efficient but there was no commentary or added value from the guide. We had the last tour of the day in August and you don't see the sunset. This is basically just a coach transfer and for that it isn't good value for money.

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE - there is no such thing as a "Sunset Experience" at Vesuvius

This trip is clearly advertised as a "sunset experience at Vesuvius". I don't know about you, dear reader, but I interpret this as meaning you can watch sunset whilst actually on Vesuvius. WRONG! We arrived at 5pm by minibus to be told that we had to be back on the bus by 6pm because that is when the site closes. When we argued about this, we were told it was nothing to do with the minibus company and that the road was too dangerous to drive down at dusk.

Mandatory tour!!!!

The Enterprise was punctual....transfer quiet...you arrive at the entrance they give you a little less than 2 hs to climb 1.6km and then go down...there is no guide....we liked it quite, I think you could go a guide explaining....and do not recommend for those who are not with the physical on.day...

Sunset? No!

Nice workout to climb last 1 km to the top! Trip is however misleadingly advertised as a “sunset” trip as we were nowhere near sunset when forced to return!

Simple shuttle, intense hike, no sunset

This hike is way more intense than I expected! Super fun and happy we did it but definitely didn’t expect such an intense hike. Barely had enough time to get to the top and still make it back for the bus. Wish we had more time. It also happened way before sunset so the description was a bit misleading. They stopped at a small shop after for a little bonus tasting and sales pitch. It was cute, but meant we missed our train. Would have preferred to stick to the schedule. Also didn’t find out until after we could have gotten dropped off somewhere closer to Naples rather than all the way back in Pompei. Still a great tour. No guide or info on this one, basically just a shuttle and entry to the park.
