⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Guide adds to an unforgettable experience.
I will prescribe this to everybody. In the event that you get Andrea as a guide (our visit was English speaking), I can confirm his insight and invitingness. Attempt to check early on the status of the path up to Mt. Vesuvius; we were fortunate and it had just re-opened the day earlier. It is a delightful view from the top and worth each progression. At that point to have a delicious pizza and investigate Pompeii with an informed, and entertaining aide, Willie. An incredible time. No compelling reason to pack weighty. Wear agreeable shoes for strolling. Bring money for different ‘blessing shops’ and comfort stands.
