From Naples Cruise Terminal: Mount Vesuvius Gran Cono Ticket & Round-Trip Bus

Depart from Naples Port
and head to Mount Vesuvius

Meet our staff at the pickup point in front of the cruise terminal and board a comfortable air-conditioned bus to Vesuvius National Park. There are two departures, at 9:10 AM and 10:10 AM, so you can pick one that matches your ship's arrival time. On the bus, a tour leader dedicated to customer support hands out a GPS-activated digital audio guide, and as you leave the city and climb the slopes of the volcano you can enjoy views of the Bay of Naples and the surrounding area.

Get your ticket and climb the Gran Cono trail

When you arrive at Vesuvius, you receive the entrance ticket included in the price. There is no need to buy one separately. Walk the trail leading to the Gran Cono up to the crater rim at about 1,200 m above sea level, and once inside the site, press play on the audio guide and explore at your own pace.

Admire the volcanic landscape and Bay of Naples from the crater

Along the trail you can observe the volcanic terrain, unique lava rocks and fumaroles up close. From the top, enjoy panoramic views over the Bay of Naples, nearby islands and the coastline.

Return to Naples Port by bus

After your visit, return to the starting point where the bus is waiting and ride straight back to Naples Port. The 9:10 AM departure leaves Vesuvius at 1:30 PM and arrives at the port around 2:10 PM; the 10:10 AM departure leaves at 3:00 PM and arrives around 3:40 PM.

※ You will walk up to the crater, so please bring comfortable shoes and outdoor clothing.
