4/5 - Good
Verified traveller
We booked the combined tour of Herculaneum and Vesuvius. Starting at 12.30pm. Due to the coach from Piazza Gariboldi being 30 minutes late then an accident on the autostrada, we didn't get to Herculaneum until after 2pm. We had to be back at the bus stop for the coach to Vesuvius at 2.50pm leaving us with less than the 2 hours anticipated to tour Herculaneum. I suggest getting a much earlier coach in case of mishaps.

Good afternoon trip after a morning on Mt Vesuvius

You can whizz around in 90 minutes but it took us a good 4 hours to see absolutely everything - either will give you a great impression of the place. Despite what it says in the guidebooks, there are facilities here and a place to buy drinks & snacks from vending machines.
3/5 - Okay

Is not as big as Pompeii but still a great plzce to visit. We combined the two, plus missed our train stop which resulted in a mile walk back from next station. So we were tired and it was getting late.

A great place, easily accessed from Sorrento or Naples on the circumversuviana line. Very hot and not a lot of shade so take a hat and water. Queues were fine
