Naples; the city known for its disarray and chaos. And of course, Mount Vesuvius... One of the most dangerous volcano in the world sleeping behind the bay of Naples in peace and silence... The famous view and the symbol of the city... What about the opposite side of this spectacular view?
We now urge you to experience it with your own eyes, but not simply on your own feet. Instead, from a different angle; atop horseback!
You will be surprised with the beauty of Naples and the islands.... And with this opportunity you are also granted special permission to ride in the national park of Vesuvius, instead of taking the bus with all the other tourists!
You will be escorted by coach from your hotel and driven to the stable where you will be given a short briefing by our professional guide.
Don't worry if you've never ridden before. You won't be the only one and the course is designed for beginners, children and all experience levels. (Little children can ride with their parents or with our guides).
We require a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 8 people to organize the tours. However, if you are a lone traveler, contact us anyways and we will add you one of the confirmed groups.
Best pics are taken here: Photo break by the volcanic rocks!
Preparations for Brylee's 6th birthday party!
So many tours we've taken in the Naples area, this horseback riding is one of our highlights. Everything was great from Roberto who picked us up in his Mercedes, Berry setting up the tour and the tour guides who made sure we had a great time. This was really an awesome experience. Riding up Mt Vesuvius on horseback should be on everyones bucket list. Thank you for the opportunity. Will definitely do it again before we leave Naples.
When our family came to visit we decided this would be more fun than walking up Vesuvius(again!) I expected a leisurely ride up a flat(well worn, no real rocks, etc) trail. I was very pleasantly surprised by the awesomely adventurous trails we got to ride. Good times! Plan to go again!
Had such a great time riding Kayla up Vesuvius! My first time riding and everyone was very helpful! The horses were very well trained... They knew exactly what they were doing! Don't miss out on this! How many people can say they've been horseback riding up an active volcano in Italy? So glad I went. ... Oh and the wine before and after always helps!
Easily the best thing I've done whilst travelling Italy. The staff are lovely and really helpful with pick-ups, local information and anything else you want/need to know! The horses are superbly behaved and so enjoyable to ride. I arrived early and so was allowed to help out with the horses! Oh and there's an incredible view from the top point of the trek! Brilliant experience and fantastic people. Thanks again for a lovely day!
My friend and I had the most amazing time riding out today. It was incredibly easy to book via Facebook messages with 24 hours notice and nothing was too much trouble. We were collected and dropped off very conveniently from/at Pompei. Everyone was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, and had great English to make up for my (non existent) Italian. The best part was obviously the riding itself. I'm an experienced rider and my friend has ridden before, and we both had a brilliant time from walk to canter up and down the volcano. Our guides were awesome, taking lots of photos both en route and at the highest point of the ride. The ponies were lovely and would be very safe for novices upwards. Scenery is obviously gorgeous! Overall I completely recommend and will definitely be back if/when I'm back in the area. Definitely drop them a message.
My teenage daughters and I had a fantastic time riding up Mt Vesuvius. We were able to easily make all arrangements through messaging over Facebook. The three of us have each ridden before but are not seasoned riders by any means. That said, the horses were wonderful and the guides carefully coached and monitored all riders and horses at all times. David speaks fantastic English, having spent a good amount of time working in the U.S. Definitely something I will do again with visitors in the future.
What a great day! The weather wasn't ideal yet the trail and the horses were still amazing! The staff was all very hospitable and friendly throughout the entire experience. We definitely recommend this activity to others and are looking forward to doing it again!
