Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Vesuvius National Park, Via Palazzo del Principe, 80044 Ottaviano Italy
The only active Volcano on mainland Europe will capture you with its unmatched views of the area from the top.

Stop At: Cantina del Vesuvio Winery Russo Family, Via Panoramica, 15, 80040 Trecase NA, Italy
The slopes of the Vesuvius are covered with lushing orchards and vineyards, thanks to the volcanic fertile soil.

We tentatively booked this this tour because there wasn't a lot of feedback that we could find. It turns out this was absolutely one of our favorite days in Sorrento! Our driver Massimo was excellent! He was funny, and courteous, and very knowledgeable! He shared several details of the area, the lemons and about the culture in general. He provided us with recommendations as to what order we should do our activities, which I believe made the day way more amazing! We truly appreciated his insight! Our first stop was at Pompeii for a private tour with Paulo - I can't say enough great things about this tour and guide! Paulo kept us engaged and suggested places for the best pictures! He was great! Next was mount Vesuvius - Massimo was able to take us right to the beginning of the hike which was really great! The visit to the vineyard was definitely a highlight as well! Delicious lunch and wine! Finally, on our way back, upon hearing we had not tried gelato yet, Massimo made a special stop for us to get some. Massimo was such a pleasure to spend the day with and definitely made our day absolutely amazing! We all would highly recommend this tour! It definitely was worth the money! Thank-you! :)claytoncombe

My wife and I used Joe Banana to get to various places around Italy, including Rome, Naples, and Positano. They were always right on time and excellent drivers, who were more than willing to humor our shaky Italian language skills and spoke mostly English. It was very hot and they always made sure we were comfortable in the air-conditioned cars, and drinking water. They also did a great job being flexible and coordinating with us by phone when, for instance, our train times changed. The real highlight of the trip was the Vesuvius, Pompeii, and winery tour. Our driver for the day, Luca Cozzolino, recommended we visit Vesuvius early, to beat the heat and the tourist rush, and boy was he right. After that we had an incredible tour of Pompeii with a private certified guide (which Joe B had also arranged), and a delicious lunch at a winery in the foothills of the volcano. To finish up, Luca dropped us off at our next destination, Positano. That day was the highlight of our whole trip, and we had Joe B and Luca to thank for that. We'd highly recommend them to anyone looking to take a lot of hassle out of their travel around Italy.Lindsey L

We travelled with another couple and signed up for this tour without knowing if it would be money well spent, since some of these types of tours can have a lot of hidden costs or sub-par service. This tour blew away our expectations and we all felt this was by far the best way to see Vesuvius, explore Pompeii and learn a bit about some of the local wine culture and region. (I should also add, all the costs are upfront and customer service quickly responds to any questions you may have.) Our driver, Massimo, was right on time to our hotel and was happy to wait for us as we were running a bit late. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the region and was highly personable - we loved him. He adjusted our tour to take us up to Vesuvius first (to beat the crowds and the heat) and then we went to Pompeii. On your own, Pompeii is incredibly confusing to walk around and you would absolutely miss 99% of the history there. A tour guide is a must, and we were lucky to have Paulo as our guide. He was very funny, pointed out tons of details we would have missed, and was savvy enough to take us on a route that avoided most of the crowds. We tackled the city at a good pace, which meant we could see more of the city, and he showed us a few extra things that we specifically asked about. But don't worry, Paolo will certainly adapt to the needs and pace of your group. Our last stop was at Bosco de Medici winery, which was a great place to end our day. After a brief tour of the winery and the process in which they produce wine, we had a nice lunch and tasting. Shipping wine home was very easy and we're looking forward to that package arriving. We had a long day and Massimo was more than happy to wait for us as we finished our wine. Our day went long but he was very gracious with us and we had a great discussion about Italian and American cultures on our drive back to Sorrento. Massimo and Paolo were incredible guides/hosts and we will absolutely ask for them by name if and when we come back to the Bay of Naples.
