F.A.Q.

A shared tour is a tour set for a small group (usually 8 people) following a pre-established itinerary with free time everywhere. Sharing a vehicle with other people gives the the advantage of a lower price without sacrificing reliability, comfort and transport safety.
During our shared tours seats assigned to passengers will always remain the same throughout the journey, the driver will always wear a mask and the itinerary will fully respect the limits imposed by the anti Covid directives.

The maximum number of people participating in a shared tour is always indicated in the the excursion’s information sheet. Usually, in our shared tours on land We provide minivans for up to 8 people and only in some cases 16 seater minibuses. Whenever not indicated, please contact our customer service.

By private tour we mean an organized tour where only people other indicated in the booking will take part. The private tour is the ideal choice for those looking for total relaxation, safety for their family and the freedom to be able make changes on the tour schedule along the way.
Within the limits of the total duration of the excursion, you will be free to manage your free time, without having to share your time or wishes with others.
You will choose whether to stay longer in one place rather than another, where to have lunch, where to stop for photos or a swim on the beach. In short, you will forget the stress of driving, traffic and parking, making the most of your day thanks to the advice from our experienced local drivers.

Our guides are all experienced local Official Guides with regional and National qualification. They can accompany you inside museums, archaeological sites and churches explaining in detail local history, culture and secrets that only a local guide knows.

Our staff, drivers and guests’ safety is of the utmost importance. We have implemented the following security measures:
1. L'the driver will wear a face mask for the whole service.
2. L'the driver won’t get in touch with passengers or with their personal belongings (ex. luggage).
3. Each vehicle has hand sanitizers and wipes.
4. Vehicles are sanitized between a service and the following one.

By shared guided tour we mean an organized tour for a small group, with the support of an expert local official guide. Our shared guided tours give you more competitive prices, still in full compliance with the regulations of the site visited as well as with the anti Covid directives in force.

A private guided tour indicates a tour in which only your own group will take part.
You will not be between other tourists but only with your experienced local Official Guide having the chance of agreeing together the best visit for you based on the time available and to your needs. Feel free to ask questions and to satisfy all your curiosities by dealing with the itinerary at your own pace without inconveniences.
In short, our private guided tours are ideal for those who love attentive, participatory, tailor-made visits..

Each monument is associated with a number, so the visitor, once in front of the monument, will just have to type the corresponding number in the audio guide.

Many Italian cities have limited the areas in which certain vehicles can are admitted, for this reason we will arrange the right vehicle in order to offer you the best service possible.

The itineraries we suggest are based on our experiences and on the knowledge of the areas visited. Usually our recommendations are the best way to maximize your time while traveling.

We reserve the right to change the order in which we visit the sites, depending on traffic conditions, weather conditions, of strikes / internal assemblies or other unforeseen circumstances that may influence the planned route.

A local driver-guide and a local tour guide are not the same When booking a private tour make sure you understand the difference and know in advance what you are paying for. A tour guide has a license, usually issued by the Region / State. He has passed exams and learned everything on the sites you will see. A guide can enter the historic sites with you and guide you. Of course, their services are an additional cost. A local driver does not have a license tour guide, has not taken exams and is not authorized to accompany you inside of a site to tell you about its story. Of course, their services will be cheaper. Many drivers are just as knowledgeable as a formal guide over the area's history. The difference, of course, is that they can give you information inside the vehicle and not inside the museum, sites, church, etc. as they could easily be fined by the police.

You should have received an automatic message to your booking / inquiry, if you can't find it, please check your spam box. In case you haven't received it, contact us at info@aroundvesuvio.com

Yes, you can add stops along the way: we have a number of options to choose. After selecting the transfer, you can then customize it by selecting one of the stops specifically available for your service.

If your flight / train / ship is delayed, please contact our customer service to find out if it’s possible to make changes for your arrival time. In these cases we will do our best to reschedule the timetable if possible. However, consider that at airports and trains stations we allow 20 minutes of waiting times for which you will not pay any extra. After this time however, there will be a charge of 35 Euros for each waiting hour.

Yes of course! You can leave your luggage in the vehicle's trunk during your stops, with no problem.

Your driver will wait for you at the agreed pick up place (train’s platform, airport’s arrival gate, your hotel) with a sign with your name on it.

In our tours you can wear whatever you prefer, however we suggest comfortable shoes and, in the summer, we also suggest a hat for some tours.
