Vesuvius and Pompei tour from Naples - We did the tour from Naples to the Vesuvius and Pompei. Both our tour leader Alessia and our Pompei guide Claudia were wonderful. It was an awesome day, including the nice lunch with the view on the Naples Bay from the Vesuvius slopes. I highly recommend.

Worth the experiences. - We enjoyed our tour gal Alexa and her team ( driver and Francesca). The driver was safe dispute all the crazy turns in the narrow stretch going up to Mt. virsuvius. She gave us a lot of information and kept the tour engaged. She surprised us with a small detour to a small shop prior to lunch where they made limoncello and it was fun. Pompai was also fun and our tour guide there was very knowledgeable. .

Great day with HP Travel - Great experience. Alessia was an amazing, kind and energetic guide. And the driver was very professional and careful. Had a great hike up to the Mt Vesuvius crater, such an amazing experience, in spite of the fog and rain. Pompeii was a very unique humbling experience. Thank you, Elena! Overall, could not be happier with the tour and highly recommend it! Thank you!

To old for the vesuvius part. - With us both having knee problems the Vesuvius trip was a major problem.My partner could not make it to the crater,I myself was determined to make it to the crater and after several stops to rest made it and it was well worth the pain.
