The agency's warm welcome and the magnificent experience of climbing Vesuvius. On the other hand, we didn't see a guide.Constantina

Staff are very friendly and very well organised. The trip to Mt Vesuvius was easy and once we arrived given two hours to make the trek up and down. This was a good amount of time. The experience is amazing and so worth the effort to get to the top. Just remember to take water and proper shoesMarisol

No audio-guide or info supplied and some confusion to take the transfer bus back to Pompeii as the one we should get on was already full and had to wait for the next one. I understand that August is a busy time but felt a bit of a mess in the bus area in front of the entrance to Vesuvio. Still, awesome views!

Discovering the crater of the mythical Vesuvius was a dream. Getting there was very easy thanks to the shuttle bus that drops you off at the bottom of the small path leading up to it. On the other hand, I found the service very expensive, given that there isn't even a small paper guide to the volcano!
