POMPEII AND NAPLES IN A DAY

With a private driver you are able to relax and enjoy the scenery on a journey to probably the world’s most famous archaeological site, Pompeii. Once a thriving and sophisticated Roman city, Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. The preserved site features excavated ruins of streets and houses that visitors can freely explore. Your guide will bring this ancient resort town to life and ensure that you are able to explore all of its most important treasures.

You will conclude the tour in Naples, one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited cities. It’s rich history is evident in its numerous piazzas, churches and palaces which spill down the hillside towards the Bay of Naples. Your guide will take you through the city’s winding streets, and will include a tour to the city’s incredible Archaeological Museum, filled with masterpieces from ancient Rome such as the Farnese Bull and Farnese Hercules as well as many of the most important finds from Pompeii. Visit the historic center: Castle Maschio Angioino, Royal Palace, Plebiscito square and the egg-shaped Castle dell’Ovo on the scenic sea-promenade (exterior only).
