Pompeii stands as a unique destination worldwide, offering tourists the extraordinary opportunity to explore an ancient Roman city nearly perfectly preserved despite the catastrophic eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. This eruption, burying Pompeii beneath layers of debris, ashes, and mud, resulted in the exceptional and invaluable UNESCO World Heritage Site you witness today.
Starting from Naples, your journey begins with a visit to the archaeological excavations of Pompeii, where the immersive tour within the excavations lasts approximately two hours. Following this exploration, a lunch break awaits, offering a choice between pizza or a delightful wine-tasting experience in a traditional restaurant along the slope.
Your adventure continues to Vesuvius, a symbol of the Bay of Naples immortalized by countless artists over the centuries. The renowned "giant," Vesuvius, beckons as one of the most splendid excursions to undertake, at least once in a lifetime. Accompanied by your driver, you'll ascend to an altitude of 1000 meters (Vesuvius's height is 1100 meters), providing a spectacular vantage point to admire the crater. A brief walk will then lead you to the awe-inspiring heart of this iconic volcano.
