Is this tour right for you?

It sits beside the list rather than in it because of one line in its own record: the shared departure is capped at 10 people, yet the single option accepts a booking of 14, with no explanation of how that party travels.

The day itself is one of two shared ways to see both sites from the coast, and the only one that names Positano: pickup 30 minutes before 8:00, 2 guided hours in the western part of Pompeii, then the drive up to the square at 1,000 m where the Gran Cono path to the crater starts, 2 hours on the mountain, and back to Positano.

Both entries are included; the Pompeii ticket isn't named by type. Lunch isn't included. Ages 5 to 80 and moderate fitness for the crater path.

What I'd do: ask how my party would be grouped before paying, and check the crater's last entry for the month.

Chiara Vitale Writes pompeii.day

I grew up in Castellammare di Stabia, under the volcano, and spent six seasons on hotel front desks in Sorrento. Which ticket, which train, which gate, how many hours: I've answered these more times than I can count.

Now I live in Pompei, ten minutes on foot from the Amphitheatre gate, and I go into the site most weeks on a MyPompeii card. For this page I compared the options and booking terms with the park's rules. Report a correction.
