Overview

The Vesuvius tour by bus and entrance ticket (which costs €11.68) is a unique opportunity to visit the crater in complete comfort. From the Ercolano Scavi station on the Circumvesuviana train line, you'll find our info point where you can consult maps, request information, and receive all the assistance you need for your excursion! If you're arriving by car, we'll suggest a nearby parking lot. You'll find us friendly, welcoming, and answer all your questions.
With a 1.5-hour stop, you can admire the crater and the view of the Gulf of Naples. On clear days, we always recommend arriving early due to the heavy flow of visitors. Visiting Vesuvius with us is quick and easy, and thanks to this reservation, you'll skip the usual line and, more importantly, receive a specific bus departure time. We look forward to seeing you!

Parco Nazionale Del Vesuvio

You will leave from our info point to reach 1000mt altitude in less than 30 minutes for a 1 hour and 40 minute stop during which you can go up the path no. 5 of the Gran Cono, admiring the breath of the volcano and the panorama of the Gulf of Naples. You can stop in one of the small shelters for a coffee - extra - and a bit of relaxation, to recharge and continue the walk. The bus will be waiting for you to return to the station square and to continue your visits perhaps to the Archaeological Park of Ercolano. This is the only opportunity to go up to Vesuvius and above all with the entrance ticket included that allows you to plan your trip in advance and not run into last minute problems, being every day always sold out. Please note: the scheduled entrance could be postponed for reasons of force majeure related to the influx of daily bookings, therefore we ask for patience and understanding, for us the important thing is to be able to let you enjoy the crater!
