With my wife we have managed to reach the crater, it has cost me a lot because the COVID left my lungs half battered. In the crater we had breakfast, excellent chat with the vendors while waiting for the bus, very good experience.

Lovely place. Breathtaking views. Booklet with the ticket was a nice touch. I would strongly consider a free water despenser availability. Having limited shade it quickly runs out.

I couldn't book a std entry ticket from my home in Spain as they were sold out for my trip week, I booked through Headout and arrived at the visitor parking area and was directed to the Rep who had a bag ready with my name on and inside was a guide and a printed ticket, very easy and allowed me to enter easily and then climb up to the crater 🌋. Overall a great experience

It all worked out, we received the tickets in exchange for the code. Quick admission without any problems. The travel guide is an interesting little book (and not a person!)

A convenient way to take a walk on Vesuvius as an alternative to regular buses and their schedules. Clearly, you pay for the service

Transportation was prompt-the ride up and down the mountain was harrowing but that's due to the roads. The "4" is because there wasn't a guide and there wasn't enough time for a guide anyway. You had 25 minutes to get up the mountain, 20 minutes at the peak, and 25 minutes to get back down and you got back on the bus.

This experience was very good. Not too busy. Toilets weren't clean, no toilet paper so bring your own. Well worth a visit to see crater. Staff pleasant

No guide or audioguide provided. Time on site could have been longer, so we had to hurry in order to complete the tour.

The meeting and transportation went well. We were not offered an audio guide. When we arrived at the parking lot, there was no skib-the-line. We had to queue as normal. And the guided tour with a volcanologist is part of the entrance ticket anyway. We would have had to wait 20 minutes for the tour. So the included services are also a bit of a sham. But Vesuvius was an impressive experience.

Getting tickets was extremely easy. My friends and I were late for the entrance but the staff was super nice and they let is enter. So definetely would reccomend buying on this app 😊

No problems with the tickets. We were well informed beforehand. The walk is strenuous, but you are rewarded with great views - the volcanic crater on one side and the Gulf of Naples on the other.

Unfortunately, there was a lot of fog and it was not possible to see much of the great cone, however, the experience was still good.

Picking up tickets we're easy enough but a taxi was needed to get to the meeting point, costs extra €6. Plus car parking which wasn't fully explained. We had no problem with paying either but knowing the extra time to reach the meeting point after the taxi ride would have been welcome. Vesuvius itself was excellent! An active volcano!!

The meeting point was easy to find and the staff were helpful and friendly. The bus left on time. We would book again and let someone with experience drive the serpentines. They even printed out the tickets for our group for the entrance to Vesuvius. At Vesuvius we had enough time to hike to the crater (approx. 20 minutes) and to walk around the crater as far as possible. An impressive experience.

Easy to purchase and the tickets were emailed the day before. Just had to scan them at the entry to Vesuvius - no queuing at all. Excellent!

the shuttle bus system is almost compulsory to go on the vesuvius. but the experience is great. we'd just like the tour to be longer 1h30 on the vesuvius is a pain, especially if you want to take advantage of the guide's explanations.
