Itinerary
Pompeii is an ancient Roman city located near modern-day Naples in southern Italy. It became famous due to the volcanic eruption that buried the entire city of Pompeii under several meters of volcanic material, instantly killing its inhabitants and preserving the city in a remarkable state of preservation. Pompeii is famous because it was destroyed in 79 CE when a nearby volcano, Mount Vesuvius, erupted, covering it in at least 19 feet (6 meters) of ash and other volcanic debris. The city's quick burial preserved it for centuries before its ruins were discovered in the late 16th century.
Start your adventure with an early morning departure from Rome. Sit back and relax as you travel comfortably to Pompeii, anticipating a day full of historical discoveries and breathtaking scenery. The journey sets the stage for the amazing sites you will explore. Arrive in Pompeii for a guided tour of the Archaeological Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Walk through the remarkably preserved ancient city, buried in 79 A.D. by a catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Learn about the daily life of its inhabitants and admire the rich architectural remnants.
After the fascinating tour of Pompeii, take a break for lunch. Enjoy a delicious meal at a local restaurant or café, savoring the flavors of Italian cuisine. Use this time to relax and reflect on the incredible history you've just experienced. In the afternoon, journey to nearby Ercolano. This ancient town, preserved by volcanic ash, offers another glimpse into Roman life. Wander through the well-preserved ruins, discovering more about the eruption's impact and the town's significance in ancient times. Board our open-top bus for a scenic tour of Mount Vesuvius. With an audio guide available in 8 languages, learn about the volcano’s history as you ascend. Reach an altitude of a thousand meters, where a naturalistic walk around the Gran Cono crater offers stunning views of the Gulf of Naples and the islands of Capri, Ischia, and Procida.
