It’s easy to get Mount Vesuvius tickets, and they're always hotter than a volcano. Book in advance and save time on your holiday. There are options to buy day-trip tickets from Naples, and you can also combine your visit with a tour, an activity, or another attraction.

Mount Vesuvius tickets include:

  • The chance to visit Mount Vesuvius, one of the world's most impressive volcanoes

  • A scenic walk on the famous volcano that destroyed Pompeii

  • Options to combine your ticket with wine tastings, guided tours, visits to other sites, lunches, and more.

  • Unfortunately, this venue is not suitable for wheelchair users, or those affected by mobility or heart issues

  • The Mount Vesuvius experience requires walking an uphill path of about 800 meters to the crater - wear comfy shoes

  • Pack accordingly for wet weather conditions on rainy days; access to the volcano is forbidden in the case of heavy rain

  • Herculaneum is worth seeing too, so buy a combo ticket for both attractions

  • To get to Mount Vesuvius, take a public bus from the Pompei Scavi Circumvesuviana station to Mount Vesuvius, or alight at the station in Ercolano; there is no direct train from Pompeii to Mount Vesuvius

Wszystko dobrze zorganizowane, autobus był na czas, a na sam spacer po wulkanie mieliśmy 2h, co w zupełności wystarczy. Polecam.

Transport och inträde fungerade mycket bra. 2 timmar för att gå upp till vulkanen och ner igen till parkeringen var tillräckligt lång tid för besöket. Rekommenderar varmt.
