# Pompeii and Vesuvius Full Guided Tour From Naples with Pizza

**Guidekin's take:** Everything is in this one: transport from the meeting points, both entrance tickets, a licensed guide in Pompeii, a mountain guide on the crater and a pizza lunch with a soft drink. Bring a valid passport, a small turnout swaps the Pompeii guide for audio guides, and a closed Vesuvius means free time at Herculaneum. 4.73 from 169 reviews.

In our comparison: #46 of 63 in Day Trips from Naples, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

An exclusive historical and cultural tour: the majestic Vesuvius and Pompeii, the immortal and evocative city. Take a leap into history and explore with us the city of Pompeii, buried in 79 AD by the eruption of the Vesuvius: a local guide will make you discover the history of the ancient city and its inhabitants. But your day does not end here... you will climb up to a height of 1,281 meters to admire the grandeur of the Vesuvius crater and a breathtaking view of the Gulf of Naples.
