Pacificana Posted June 22, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 22, 2015 We are going to be in Naples from 8:00 to 19:00 on July 31st (Divina). Could anyone who has done Vesuvius and Pompei on their own help with how to do it most efficiently? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted June 22, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The most efficient way to get to both in one day requires a car - is that in the consideration set or are you only looking for public transit information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pacificana Posted June 23, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted June 23, 2015 No, we don't feel comfortable driving a car in Italy, we'd rather use public transportation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted June 23, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 23, 2015 But what about a car service, or a taxi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted June 23, 2015 #5 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Strictly by mass transit there are two options. You can go to Pompei and take a bus from Pompei to Vesuvio and back. Or you can go to Ercolano Scavi (on the Circumvesuviana train line) and take the Vesuvio Express bus/van service to Vesuvio and back. There's no way by public transit to be efficient and go directly from one to the other, you need to do a round trip to Vesuvio from one of these two locations.

Leviosa Posted July 5, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 5, 2015 We used Rome in a Limo who were fantastic - shared with a family on the ship to save money. Air con Mercedes vans were a God send! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syesmar Posted July 5, 2015 #7 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) We had planned on using this company to visit Vesuvius last summer:http://www.busviadelvesuvio.com pickup is near the entrance to Pompeii. The plan was to take the SITA bus to Pompeii and then this bus to Vesuvius. Our plans changed due to very cloudy weather, but we still had a fabulous day with Plan B.
