Project Napoli Service · Naples
A guide meets you at the cruise terminal in Naples, takes you through Pompeii, feeds you pizza and drives you up Vesuvius, then brings you back to the ship. Book it for the worry-free guarantee: if you miss the ship, the operator gets you to the next port.
This is the cruise version of the classic day, run by the same operator. If your ship docks at Stazione Marittima, the pickup is outside the terminal building, at the exit of the security box under the blue sign. At Pier 21 on Molo Carlo Pisacane it is just outside the gate next to the ship. A driver or guide holds a sign with your name. Start time: 9:45.
Pompeii comes first: about 2 hours with a guide past the House of the Vettii, the baths, the Lupanare and the Forum. Pizza and a drink follow, then the coach drives up Vesuvius, and the listing gives 1 hour on the crater path. The Worry-Free Shore Excursion guarantee promises a timely return to the port; if your ship has left, the operator arranges transport to the next port of call, and if your ship is delayed and you can't join, you get your money back.
Guests are mixed. Some loved the guide and the huge pizza; others found the group too big, said the earpieces cut out when the guide walked ahead, or wrote about a lot of waiting. With a tight all-aboard time, those waits matter.
Outside Stazione Marittima or at Pier 21, Molo Carlo Pisacane. Look for the sign with your name.
House of the Vettii, the baths, the Lupanare and the Forum.
A pizza break. Guests report a lot of waiting on the day when groups are big.
The coach climbs to the car park; you walk up to the rim with your guide.

★★★★★Really great day that we enjoyed so much. Brilliant Pompeii finished off with a lovely pizza before being zipped off to conquer Vesuvius.....well the last 200m anyway. The hosts were great and made sure that we got back to our ship in time despite very busy traffic in Naples
★★★★★What an amazing excursion. Rosa was great and kept everything organized. They say you get a slice of pizza, but the pizza was like a medium size in the United States. It was delicious.
★★★★★Very well organised, Verauvius in the heat was hard, but Limoncello shop stop before made it easier, great tasting and surprising ingredients! Pizza lunch break also ideal, fantastic, huge pizza!
