Step by Step
Enjoy a unique experience with this entrance ticket to Vesuvius National Park, with no need to wait in line or join a group. This flexible option allows you to ascend Italy's most emblematic volcano by following the Sentiero del Gran Cono, a panoramic path that leads you to the edge of the crater.
Upon arrival at the meeting point at the park entrance, a representative will give you the entrance ticket and an explanatory brochure in English, with details about the geology, the eruptive history of Vesuvius and useful tips for your visit. It is ideal for those who prefer to explore on their own without missing out on relevant information.
During the tour, you will enjoy unparalleled views of the Gulf of Naples and have time to stop, take photos and get a close-up look at the crater that transformed the history of the region. The terrain is volcanic, so proper footwear is essential.
