About this tour

Explore a working winery on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius, where you'll walk through four hectares of vineyards and olive groves before sampling three or four regional wines paired with traditional Neapolitan fare. Your guide reveals the landscape and agricultural heritage around this historic volcano, ending with a spread of cold cuts, cheeses, bruschetta and local olives from the cellar, plus digestives and desserts. The 2–3 hour experience sits between wine education and slow food tradition, grounded in southern Italian terroir.

Highlights

  • Walk through working vineyards and olive groves on Vesuvius slopes
  • Taste three or four wines selected by the winery team
  • Paired tasting menu inspired by ancient Roman cooking
  • Local cheeses, cured meats, olives and bruschetta included
  • Optional add-on: Pompeii ruins or historic town tour
  • Air-conditioned transport with multilingual guide

What to expect

You'll arrive at the winery and set out on foot across the property with a knowledgeable local guide who discusses the volcanic soil, grape varieties and pressing methods. Expect gravel paths, vineyard rows and the cellar building itself. After 60–90 minutes walking and learning, you'll move to a tasting area where wines arrive in sequence—each paired with seasonal produce, cured meats and housemade breads. The food is unpretentious; the wines are the focus. By the end you'll have eaten considerably and tasted enough to understand why this corner of Campania matters.

Good to know

Wine tastings cost extra (€35 for three wines, €45 for four) unless pre-booked. Pompeii visits available but charged separately. Wear sturdy shoes—vineyard terrain can be uneven. Wheelchair accessible paths available; inform the operator in advance.
