Kind of Vulcano ;) - Everything was perfect. The lady led the group beautifully to Vezuvio. Very nice driving. The driver did a great job. Italy have such winding streets, but he drove bus safely and perfectly. And the most important thing is that the volcano behaved and didn't erupt ;) Very nice trip and everything was beautifully organized. P.S. I almost forgot - the restaurant at the bottom of the volcano and the regional wine was fantastic :)

Experience of a lifetime, gazing into the volcanic crater of Mount Vesuvius. - The lunch at the winery is very relaxed and plenty of time to wander the vineyard. The tour bus takes you nearly to the top of the volcano. There is a little rest area with souvenir shops, cafe, toilets and great views. This is a perfect place to enjoy if the final walk up top is too difficult for you. Half our group stayed here and half continued up to the top. The walk is very challenging as it is steep and the ash path is sloppy underfoot. But it’s manageable if you take your time and have little rest.

Fantastic trip with great communication - The trip to Vesuvius was fantastic with our effervescent guide Paula, with an excellent light lunch and wine tasting at a volcanic vineyard and a surprise visit somewhere on the way down from the volcano. The updates via WhatsApp are also very helpful. Would highly recommend

What a fantastic, value for money trip - We really enjoyed everything about the excursion. From the pick-up point to drop off! The food and wine were lovely, and the stop for lemoncello tasting really good too. The driver was very skilled which made us feel safe on the winding roads and he was one of the nicest, jovial/happiest drivers we've met during our time in Sorrento. Our tour guide to the restaurant was great and our change of guide from the restaurant to Vesuvius and back to Sorrento even better. We definitely recommend Buyourtour as great value for money and the excursion not to be missed. Thank you very much 😊

It lain highlight - The trip was great and very informative. The town was not very difficult to walk and the guide reminded me us of the tough parts. The lunch was pleasant and the view gorgeous.Mt Vesuvius was unbelievable.we walked the crater.still seems a little hard to believe an eruption did so much damage.

Exceptional views - This was a great trip to see one of the worlds wonders. A word of advice though makes sure you wear reasonable footwear. Someone in our tour was wearing some fancy dress shoes. Believe me when I say the climb is rigorous and coming down you slip and slide. Lots of ruts and rocks to turn your ankles too

Rip Off - After being picked up at 11am from our hotel in Sorrento town we eventually arrived at the vineyard restaurant for the light lunch at 12.30. The restaurant had packed as many tables in, no room between tables. Starters arrived slices of salami and a square of bread in the middle of the plate, cold pasta with tomato sauce, and for dessert a slice a very dry cake. We were served 3 small glasses of wine and water. Eventually we left the restaurant after 2 1/2 hours then back on the coach for another 45 mins drive to Vesuvius. We were allowed 90mins before we had to be back on the coach, it takes at least 30 mins to reach the top!!! And another 15minutes if you wanted to walk around the creator. Back on the coach to our hotel. AN EIGHT HOUR DAY FOR ONLY 90 MINUTES TO CLIMB VESUVIUS . My suggestion would be if you wanted to visit Vesuvius catch the train from Sorrento to Pompeii. When you come out of Pompeii station a bus will take you up the mountain to Vesuvius . Train from Sorrento coach and entrance to Vesuvius approx 50e. The cost of the coach trip 99e.
