This day tour takes you by bus from Naples or Pompeii to three sights in one day: Mount Vesuvius, Herculaneum and Pompeii. Climb Vesuvius, the volcano that buried both cities in Roman times yet preserved their frescoes and buildings, and walk up close to the crater. Admission tickets and audio guides for the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Herculaneum and Pompeii are included, so you skip the ticket lines and explore at your own pace. All transfers between the three sights are by tour bus for a comfortable trip.
Depending on your option, board the bus at the meeting point in Naples or Pompeii. A driver who speaks English and Italian takes you to Mount Vesuvius, Herculaneum and Pompeii in turn, and you explore each sight freely for a set time. Tickets for Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii, admission to the Herculaneum archaeological site and booking fees are all included, so there is no need to buy tickets on site.
After about 40 minutes by bus, get off at around 1,000 m above sea level on Mount Vesuvius. During about 1.5 hours of free time, explore the volcano and walk up to the crater. You enter Mount Vesuvius with a priority ticket.
Travel about 30 minutes by bus to the Herculaneum archaeological site. For about 2 hours, explore the ruins in any order you like while listening to the digital audio guide.
Travel another 30 minutes by bus to the Pompeii archaeological site. Explore freely for about 2 hours with the multilingual audio guide dedicated to Pompeii, then return to Naples or Pompeii by bus in about 40 minutes.
