The German-speaking guide lady in Pompeii was simply exceptional and she made the walk through Pompeii under a scorching sun an unforgettable experience.

Overall all good. Maybe it would be better to receive tickets in app (for Pompei). We got there by train and had to walk to other entrance. For Ercolano it was better because we received tickets by email. Vesuvio trip was good. Meeting point was on point, driver drove us safely to the top. Guide which is included is not part of trip but has to be found at the top. Maybe 30-60 minutes more at the top would be nice.

I found the meeting point easily and we left on time for Vesuvius. We were a big international group but once we arrived at the volcano it was every man and woman for himself. A volcanologist presentation was included in the ticket but it was up to us to find him/her on the top after the climb. I didn't hear everything the volcanologist had to say because time was pressing and I wanted to do the full walk around the volcano. Our group had 1.40 hours to climb and explore. One negative point is no one warns that there are no public toilets at the volcano. To use a toilet you have to buy a souvenir (and the choice wasn't great) in a shop because toilets were reserved for customers. But as a whole I found it quite practical to book a tour instead of trying to go there on my own. I recommend.

Once we arrived we had to wait for the tickets to arrive on the next bus. The young man from the tour operator told us there would be guides up at the top but there were none and those we met were on our way down when we had to get back to the bus! Disappointing.

The visit went well, but the shuttles need to be reviewed. We waited 1.5 hours in the parking lot in the dust and sweep of other tour operators' buses, with nothing to wait for. 1 return bus per hour when the designers do 30. Pathetic
