We chose this tour for our honeymoon, and from start to finish, it was absolutely incredible—one of the best experiences we've ever had. The value for the price was unbelievable! Just the entrance tickets to Pompeii were worth half the cost, and on top of that, we had transportation to and from the train station, fantastic guides and a skilled driver, the most delicious pizza we've ever eaten (plus soda) for lunch, and the chance to hike Mt. Vesuvius. Every moment was entertaining, well-organized, and filled with care. An unforgettable experience!

We had a delightful day trip that started with a visit to the top of Vesuvius, followed by lunch and a guided tour of Pompeii. Our guide, Alessia, was fantastic—super helpful and attentive—and our driver, Tino, did a great job. Traveling during the off-season (late September), our group was a small and friendly six people, making for a cozy and enjoyable experience, especially during lunch when we all got to chat.The early start meant we reached Vesuvius before the crowds, which was perfect. The weather was sunny, offering spectacular views. While the instructions recommended comfortable shoes, I’d suggest opting for closed-toe shoes and perhaps bringing a jacket, though we managed just fine in Birkenstocks!Lunch was in the hills of Vesuvius and included a choice of two pizzas (Margherita or Marinara) with a drink. For the Pompeii visit, we joined another group from the same operator, which made sense given our small size. Elena guided us through a quick but insightful tour of the site. Pompeii has so much to explore, so if you’re looking for a more in-depth visit, going independently might be a better option.

Martina, our guide, was fantastic! Even though she’s only been working there for a few weeks, you’d never guess it.

Our only issue was that the bus driver (Tino?) smoked frequently during stops, and at times the bus had a strong smell of smoke when we reboarded.

Pompeii and Vesuvius are absolutely worth seeing. The tour was excellent, and the guide provided fascinating information about the history of both sites.

As someone who’s not usually a fan of guided tours, this experience completely changed my perspective! Everything was incredibly professional, with a well-planned and exciting itinerary. Our guide was a complete gem—so friendly and welcoming. The transportation was comfortable and reliable. I especially appreciated that we weren’t forced to mingle as a large group—each person or group had their own space and time to enjoy the tour at their own pace, which I really valued. Lastly, the guide we had for Pompeii was fantastic—he spoke excellent English, was hilarious, and clearly loved his job, making the whole experience unforgettable. I will definitely recommend this tour to my friends and family if they visit Naples!

We had an amazing time exploring Mt. Vesuvius and Pompeii. The history and sights were absolutely incredible. We took a train from Rome to Naples to start the tour, and the ride was quick, easy, and comfortable. The guides and driver were fantastic! It was the perfect day to explore a lot, especially with our family of four older kids.

We’re so glad we chose this excursion! We took a long day trip from Rome by train, and having the meeting point right by the Naples station was perfect. Our bus guide, Alessia, was wonderful and took great care of us throughout the journey. Mt. Vesuvius was incredible! The bus takes you close to the top, and then there’s a 30-minute hike up a gravel path to the crater. It was quite hot, but definitely worth it. Just a heads-up, one member of our group, who is 71 years old, managed the hike with plenty of breaks, so it’s definitely doable. However, there are no public toilets at Vesuvius. There’s a café at the top, where we enjoyed a glass of wine to celebrate our achievement. The lunch stop was fantastic—delicious pizza and a very refreshing cold beer! And Pompeii... wow! It was truly astonishing and breathtaking. Enrico, our guide, was full of fascinating facts and charisma, and he led us on an excellent, enjoyable tour. This was a fantastic excursion, and I highly recommend it!

Great day trip! The bus picks you up at a central location, and the group is small, with fewer than 25 people. The guides were all friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

Alessia did an excellent job organizing the trip and ensuring we had a great time. Our guide at Pompeii, Elena, was also wonderful and very knowledgeable. One thing I wish had been mentioned is that they offer to purchase the tickets for Pompeii and Vesuvius on your behalf, so you don’t have to buy them yourself. Since the information stated that the tickets weren’t included, we ended up purchasing them ourselves and ended up buying tickets for Vesuvius twice. It would have been helpful to know in advance.

As for Vesuvius, the driver stayed with the bus, which wasn’t a problem as we didn’t need a guide to hike to the top. However, there was no clear time set for the Vesuvius trek, which caused some confusion. Some people finished early and had to wait in the bus for quite a while.

It was a pleasure to travel with HP Travel. The driver picked us up right by our hotel, and the minivan had excellent air conditioning. We thoroughly enjoyed the Pompeii tour, and our guide, the lovely Vivianne, was a true professional. She was charismatic and explained life in ancient times so well that it felt like we were transported back to that era. She made us laugh and ensured we had a great time. Pompeii is vast, so it’s impossible to see it all in one day, but we highly recommend Vivianne as your guide. The trip to Vesuvius was well-balanced in terms of time, making for a pleasant experience. We definitely recommend HP Travel as your adventure company!

I really enjoyed the trip to Vesuvius and Pompeii. Alessandra was an excellent host, and Nino, with his expert driving, made everything smooth. We were picked up on time, and everything was well explained. I’m glad we visited Vesuvius first, as it helped us avoid the crowds. Make sure to wear sturdy walking shoes; it took me about 35 minutes to walk up the steep path (at a slow pace), but the views at the top were absolutely breathtaking. There’s a spot to grab a drink before heading back down. After that, we enjoyed a nice lunch, followed by a visit to Pompeii, which was both fascinating and picturesque. Our guide, Rosa, gave us all the essential information. Keep in mind that Pompeii is like a city, so seeing everything would take several days. By the end of the day, I was exhausted from all the walking and activities, but we were back at the hotel by 5 pm for some relaxation. I highly recommend this tour—it’s definitely a must-do if you're staying in Naples or the surrounding areas.

Ciro (the driver) and Martina (the guide) were fantastic—both were incredibly friendly and made us feel comfortable from the start. Martina really added a special touch to the trip, she’s amazing!

The transport was great, and we received some valuable information from the guide at Pompeii. However, it would have been ideal to have more time at Vesuvius, as we didn’t have enough time to explore the entire crater. It would have also been nice to have a bit more time at Pompeii. The tour was supposed to last 8 hours, but we ended up returning an hour early. Our group wasn't fully booked (the company had called me the day before asking if we could reschedule, but since we were flying out before the dates they proposed, we had to decline). I assume the tour finished early due to the smaller group size.

The tour itself was fantastic, and Gerardo was an outstanding guide. He was positive, knowledgeable, and always helpful with our questions. All the sights were incredible. However, I would suggest revisiting the schedule, especially having lunch before visiting Vesuvius. Eating pizza and then hiking isn't the best combination, and other guests shared the same sentiment. A slight adjustment to the itinerary would make the experience even better, but overall, everything was great.

Alyssa and Luciano were excellent. The guide at Pompeii was great too, sharing some fascinating facts with us. Personally, I’m not a huge fan of guided tours, but my partner loved it.

An extra 30 minutes at each, with an additional hour at Pompeii, would have made the experience even better.

We also had a surprise stop at a local shop where we got to taste their liqueurs and treats, which was a lovely addition to the day.

The guides for both Pompeii and Vesuvius were fantastic—friendly and very knowledgeable. One thing that wasn’t mentioned in the description is that to visit the Vesuvius crater, you MUST wear hiking shoes or sturdy sneakers. The hike is about 1 km to the top, and it’s a steep incline. Anyone who isn’t comfortable with a hike should be aware of this before booking. We had an amazing time, but I wanted to share this hike detail since it’s not included in the description.

It would also be helpful to just include the park fee in the price, as the actual cost of the tour ended up being 35 euros more than advertised.

We had a fantastic day! It was great to explore Pompeii with our guide Enrico, visit Mount Vesuvius, and enjoy a surprise stop along the way. The pizza for lunch was delicious.

This email came too late. I emailed to confirm that my ticket purchase was good but never received a response. Thankfully, the tickets were arranged, but the lack of communication was quite frustrating.

The meeting time was later than originally indicated, and I didn't receive any message with the updated departure time, which led to a long wait. Vesuvius was nice, but there was no local guide available when we were there, so we had to explore on our own without any explanations. Lunch was fine, but it took a long time to be served, and that time could have been better spent in Pompeii. We were rushed through the ruins, and a significant amount of time was spent getting to the entry gates and walking back to the bus. It would have been nice to have a slower pace in Pompeii, as we missed a lot. The bus guide was pleasant and attentive, but a bottle of water for the passengers would have been a thoughtful touch, especially for the price.

Our tour guide was very helpful. We did have to wait for a few people who were late coming down from the volcano, but that wasn’t the tour’s fault.

It was a good trip overall. The guide was new to the role and had a lot to learn about customer service, but she warmed to the job as the day went on. It started off a bit poorly, and there were some issues, but the Pompeii guide, David, was excellent and really improved the experience. We didn’t receive clear information about the meeting points, and we ended up walking too fast, nearly getting lost—this was particularly challenging for our group of seven, including kids. There was also a ticketing issue that caused a 30-minute delay, which wasn’t handled well. However, lunch at a restaurant between Pompeii and Vesuvius was nice. It was a long and tiring day, but overall, we were satisfied with the experience.

I loved visiting Pompeii and hiking up Mount Vesuvius. However, my main complaint is that the experience was a bit disorganized. Some group members were dropped off between locations without clear instructions, and there appeared to be miscommunication among the tour leaders, resulting in confusion and about 1-2 hours of lost time.
Helpful? Yes
The excursion to Vesuvius was truly special, especially with how close you get to the crater. Pompeii, however, felt like a very quick visit. The guide wasn’t fluent in Italian as I had requested, and it was clear she was tired from working nonstop for months. She spoke as though reading from a book, barely interacting with our small group and yawning frequently. It would have been nice if she had allowed us more time to explore the park. Despite that, Pompeii itself was a pleasant surprise—it’s definitely a must-see if you’re visiting Naples. Gigi, the driver, was very nice and friendly, and Maddalena, though she didn’t join us for lunch, was a lovely and attentive guide.

The experience with Alessia, Isuro, and Bernadette was excellent. They were all very friendly and helpful, going out of their way to translate into our language so we could understand everything. The trip to Vesuvius was very interesting, though it could have used a bit more time. The food was fine. When visiting Pompeii, it would have been helpful to know in advance which sites would be included in the tour. The tour we took missed some fascinating sites that were very close by. I understand there are many groups and guides are divided up, but there were still important houses we didn't visit. We ended up returning on our own another day, but for travelers who could only join the tour that day, I think they missed out on a more complete experience.

The tour was well-organized and thoughtfully planned. Starting at Vesuvius was a great decision, as it was less crowded and cooler in the morning. However, the guide does not accompany you to Vesuvius or Pompeii. You explore Mount Vesuvius on your own, with about 1.5 hours allocated for the climb. In Pompeii, another guide takes over—in our case, Mikael, who was both entertaining and incredibly informative. On the bus, our tour guide Alessandro shared additional details about Pompeii and Vesuvius, which enriched the experience. Lunch options included a Margarita pizza with or without cheese. Overall, we would definitely recommend this tour.

I should have been better prepared; the path to Vesuvius was extremely windy and cold. Make sure to bring long pants, a jacket, and a hat. The trail is quite slippery because of the sandy and rocky terrain, so sturdy shoes are a must. Fortunately, there were no queues, and we could head straight up, which was a great advantage. Our guide made a smart decision by adjusting the itinerary—we visited Vesuvius first. This turned out to be perfect timing, as the park closed shortly after we reached the top due to severe weather conditions. The strong winds were intense and dangerous.Afterward, we returned and enjoyed pizza at a restaurant, but it was disappointing that only one drink was included in the price. Additional drinks had to be paid for, which felt unnecessary. Free water should definitely be provided on the tour! We also made a stop at a local farmer's shop at the base of Vesuvius, where they grow and sell Amalfi lemons. As for Pompeii, it was fine, but I didn’t find it particularly remarkable.

Since the group stayed on schedule, we made a bonus stop at a limoncello farmer on the way back, where we enjoyed a tasting and had the chance to purchase his products.Next, we headed to Pompeii, which was quite crowded. The guide moved quickly, making it hard for the group to stay together at times. After a brief wait at the entrance, we regrouped, received earphones, and a local Pompeii guide took over.

The pizza lunch was likely the highlight of the trip. During the guided Pompeii tour, our group of six was merged with another company, forming a group of over 30 people.

For 75 EUR, this tour didn’t even include tickets what an experience! Transportation was smooth, and we were dropped off first near Pompeii, but things went downhill from there. After getting tickets, I stopped for water and a bathroom break, but the group didn’t wait because the guides seemed to be in a hurry.The two hour tour in Pompeii was led by Nicola, who was very positive but rushed through the visit. Then came lunch—only two pizza options (the cheapest ones) and a drink were included. For 75 EUR, I would have preferred to pay for my own lunch and tickets separately.At Vesuvius, we had just 1.5 hours, barely enough for a quick climb and descent. The surprise stop at a shop felt more like supporting the guides’ business partners, but the final liqueur tasting was lovely—those drinks were fantastic! At the end of the trip, we received a small magnet as a gift, which was a nice touch.Overall, the experience was interesting but felt overpriced. Good luck to future travelers! ????

However, things felt different when we arrived in Pompeii. The site was extremely crowded, and the tour moved at a very fast pace. The combination of the crowds and the speed made it hard to fully take in the sights while keeping up. My friend, who is quite short, found it especially challenging to see what was being discussed, snap photos, and stay with the group.Our guide in Pompeii, Claudia, was cheerful, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic, but the tour felt overly rushed, with too much packed into a short time. We’d recommend this trip overall, but not after March it’s simply too busy!

The trip started late, but the company did notify us in advance. While we enjoyed both excursions, there were several unexpected changes that we were not informed about. For example, we weren’t told beforehand that we would join a much larger group to tour Pompeii.Additionally, our guide did not accompany us on any of the excursions, which came as a surprise. She spent time with us only on the bus, disappeared into the restaurant during lunch, and did not join us for the climb up Vesuvius. This was far from the guided experience described on the website.The tour felt more like a self guided experience and did not match the advertised description. If you’re expecting a fully guided tour with consistent guidance throughout, this may not be the best choice. The company should be more transparent and accurate in their website descriptions.

The visit to Pompeii and the subsequent restaurant stop were thoroughly enjoyable. The tour itself was both engaging and educational, while the restaurant offered a stunning view, allowing for photos of the sea and Mount Vesuvius. However, Vesuvius was unfortunately inaccessible on the day of my visit. This information was shared with me only about 30 minutes before the tour began, despite it seemingly being the case for several days. As an alternative, we visited a museum, for which we had to pay on the bus (similar to the Pompeii ticket). While the museum was decent, it wasn’t a standout experience. Had I known in advance that Vesuvius would be off-limits, I likely wouldn’t have booked the tour.

Our tour to Pompeii started off wonderfully, led by the most unique and entertaining guide imaginable. The experience was both humorous and highly informative, making it easy to fully immerse ourselves in the historical city.Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse after Pompeii when Mount Vesuvius was closed due to adverse weather conditions from previous days.The agency initially planned a visit to the MAV museum for a virtual reality experience of Mount Vesuvius, but this was canceled as the museum was closed on Mondays. Instead, they decided to head to Herculaneum, which sounded promising. Sadly, by the time we arrived, Herculaneum was closed, and we were denied entry.What followed was a sudden pivot to a shopping trip at a limestone factory, where the focus seemed to be on selling their products rather than providing an alternative cultural experience.While the tour began on a high note with an excellent guide and a memorable visit to Pompeii, the poorly handled substitutions left us feeling disappointed and tarnished the overall experience.

The visit to Pompeii felt a bit rushed, leaving little time to fully explore the site. Other than that, the overall experience was satisfactory.

We spent too much time at lunch, waiting for pizza, which could have been better spent exploring Pompeii further.

The trip was absolutely wonderful and very well-organized. However, reaching Mount Vesuvius was a bit challenging as the timing of our arrival didn’t align with our ticket slots, leading to some waiting in the wind. Additionally, I had to pay separate admission fees for Mount Vesuvius and Pompeii on top of the day tour ticket price, which I would have preferred to be included upfront. That said, the Limoncello farm, the restaurant, Pompeii, and Mount Vesuvius were all incredible destinations that made for a memorable day trip. A big thank you to our tour guide, who was both informative and friendly, adding great value to the experience!

Having an audio device would have made the trip to Pompeii much more enjoyable, allowing for a clearer and more immersive experience.

The trip was enjoyable, and we were able to visit all the sights we had hoped for. Our Pompeii guide, Maria, seemed a bit overwhelmed due to the large number of visitors that day, which caused some confusion while organizing our group entry. The tour through Pompeii felt a bit rushed, and her English explanations were occasionally difficult to follow. Despite this, she shared valuable information, and the sights themselves were absolutely breathtaking—a true once-in-a-lifetime experience.The pizza lunch was average; some of us found the dough undercooked and the cheese not fully melted, though one guest who opted for pasta found it excellent. Mount Vesuvius was a highlight, with the freedom to hike at our own pace and spectacular views. We were lucky to have a clear day, allowing us to see all the way to Ischia and Capri.

The tour schedule felt rushed, with insufficient time allocated for lunch. Despite requesting an Italian-speaking guide, the entire tour was conducted in English, leaving some participants unable to fully understand the explanations.

The transportation should pick up participants where the tour is planned to end, allowing time to shop or explore afterward without feeling rushed to leave.

The guided tour of Pompeii was excellent, and the taxi driver was very friendly. However, the online confirmation failed to mention that ticket costs were not included in the initial payment. This led to some confusion regarding the additional expenses required on-site.
