Overview
Mount Vesuvius is one of only two active volcanos in Continental Europe and stands about 1281 meters tall, with a symmetrical central cone and steep wooden slopes. The whole of the Mount Vesuvius National Park is both beautiful and productive, dotted with small farms and wineries planted with heirloom varietals boasting a unique terroir.
Visiting the crater is a must, and tourists from across the globe climb the path each year to peer into its depths. First we'll have a delicious lunch then we’ll reach by car the height of 1.000mtrs then accompanied by an expert volcanological guide we’ll ascend the crater with a 20 mins walk.
From here you can admire the wonderful view of the Gulf of Naples on the horizon and walk on one of the still active craters of Europe.
Do not forget to bring your camera, a jacket (even during summer) and to wear comfortable shoes.
At the end, return back to Naples to your hotel.
