I booked this tour for my group of 6 friends and we had such an amazing day! The tour guide was so lovely, friendly and knowledgeable. The walk up Vesuvius was nice and great seeing the top. (Wasn’t difficult to climb. Trainers are best) The vineyard was beautiful and we even got a chance to squash grapes with our feet. The meal was delicious and were really big portions, we couldn’t move towards the end especially drinking quite a few glasses of wine. Unforgettable trip and would definitely recommend.

Expensive trip to sit on a bus all day

Michelle_R, Jun 2023

This tour was not as expected. The tour sounds like it is one pick up location, but our pick up was late because of picking up people from 8 different hotels before getting to us, so we were over an hour late to arrive at Vesuvius, so we had to rush up and right back down , was very disappointed that didn't get to do the full trail because of this. We then went to the the Russo vineyard for lunch and wine tasting, they sat us down and poured the wine without discussing the grape or type of wine, and each wine was poured into the same glass. Is that how they really want you to taste their wine?? No much pride in the quality of the wine if you don't pour in clean glasses for tasting to not mix and didn't ever explain the wines. The food was tasty and filling. We then departed and was told we would be back in an hour if no traffic.... But we then started dropping off at all of the hotels, as we got within 10 mins of the drop off point, they turned away from the city and went through long way around a very winding road to drop off at 8 different hotels, adding another hour to the trip (so took 2 hours to return from vineyard because of this), and because we were back late, the driver didn't want to go to the drop off point and dropped us at a different location .... We spent so much time on the bus because of all the pick ups... Would have never reserved this experience if it was clear that there is that many pick up and drop off points making the day a very long day on the bus and not enough time at the mountain. Paid a lot of money to sit on a bus all day, not worth it.

Vesuvius and lunch were amazing, just not this tour company

Diane_R, May 2023

The volcano itself was spectacular but the bus ride from Sorrento was difficult. We spent almost an hour picking up others from different hotels before even starting the 1.5 hour bus ride to the volcano. This is not only an issue with timing but also there were no bathroom facilities on the bus. It just makes sense that any bus tour longer than 1.5 hours needs a toilet to be comfortable. Especially when we finally arrived at Vesuvius and the only bathroom option there was a filthy one inside a store where you had to purchase overpriced items to access the bathroom! Unacceptable. Plus we got stuck in traffic going up and coming back. We determined we were on the bus longer than off it for this day. The lunch and wine tasting at the winery were very good and the food was excellent. It was just a very very long and trying day from Sorrento. Our guide was fine, gave us some history of the different towns we passed going to the volcano. It’s a short but steep hike up to the crater and we had 60 mph winds up there so come prepared. We didn’t use the park guides as we had only 1.5 hours at the volcano most of which was spent just hiking to the top. Great experience summiting the volcano and at lunch but this tour company needs to organize the transportation and timing better. Might be better to take the local train to Ercolano closer to Vesuvius and get a tour from there.

Super experience

Sharron_T, May 2022

Absolutely loved the drive up and the final walk up round the top of the Mount Vesuvius. What an experience. Our guide was fun and informative. Had enough time to explore on our own. That was my highlight. The vineyard was good wine lovely and meal but wasn’t very exciting and the tour was five minutes round. But over all the trek was what I booked it for

Mount Vesuvius with lunch

Rod_C, Oct 2019

Comfortable vehicle from Sorrento. Adequate time to clime to the crater and enjoy contact with Mount Vesuvius. Interesting vineyard and wine making facilities but rather superficial contact with them. A reasonable lunch.

Volcanic wine treading

johnmcgarrity047, Oct 2019

A great experience combining a trip to see the crater of Vesuvius followed by a light lunch and wine tasting. The wine was very good and those brave enough did a spot of grape treading the traditional way. It was good fun as long as you were prepared to expose your toe nails to public scrutiny..

Poorly Executed Tour

David L, Sep 2019

Given the traffic congestion in the area, the tour should have at least 1.5 hours earlier. The guide was pleasant but not very informative. The connection with the park rangers was non existent as many of us had no idea where they were located and simply continued on to the crater. Since we started late we did not arrive at the winery until 2:30 and did not eat until 3 or later. The food was mediocre. Please send me a refund for this tour.

Amazing Summit!

Karen O, Oct 2018

It was a great adventure to climb Mt. Vesuvius and the wine was great too! Vincenzo was a wonderful guide.

The Mount Vesuvius trip was enjoyable...

John R, Sep 2018

The Mount Vesuvius trip was enjoyable if not a bit rushed. The wine tour was pretty much a waste of time. We expected to have some kind of a tour/chat about the grapes, picking, bottling etc. it was actually a whistle stop visit to a storage shed, crush some grapes for a photo, have a very nice meal and test the wines. Then visit the shop to see where the wine is bottled and a bit of sales talk. Back on the coach and then an hour plus journey back to Sorrento. The guide was very excited about his upcoming wedding and added a drive past his church, the place where his ring is being made and then on the way back the place where his reception would be - this was more informative than the tour de Vineyard.

Amazing tour
