Description
Set off on a full-day journey to the countryside. Skip the frequently extensive line and explore the ancient city of Pompeii, with the streets, houses, and public spaces that remained almost intact under the 30-meter layer of ash. Discover this unique place, where time stopped thousands of years ago, guarding evidence, memories, and historical artefacts for the descendants on a two-hour guided tour.
After the tour, you will stop for lunch in a hillside restaurant. There, you will taste traditional pizza and enjoy a glass of nice Italian wine.
Then, in the afternoon, you will continue with a visit to Mount Vesuvius, one of the most dangerous volcanos in the world, still active and erupting for the last time in the middle of the XX century. Head to the crater, reaching an altitude of 1000 meters. Explore the mountain summit with a professional national park guide, or walk your own. Take a stunning 360-degree view of the crater, the bay of Naples and the cities lying underneath.

Additional info
- The itinerary within the excavations of Pompeii may vary from day to day depending on the opening of certain offices, depending on the turnout. A visit to one building per category is guaranteed: 1 Temple, 1 Market, 1 Shop, 1 Villa, 1 Spa, 1 Theatre and the Forum. The choice of buildings visited is determined from time to time by the guide according to attendance, waiting times in case of long queues, opening times of the buildings.
- The tour includes a visit to a cameo factory, the cameo is a typical Roman jewel found during excavations at Herculaneum and Pompeii in 1748. In the factory you will see a craftsman at work, the cameo is a jewel made from shells and precious stones and is engraved by hand by the craftsman. The visit to the factory will allow you to use the toilets free of charge before entering the excavations, so the stop at the cameo factory as well as being informative is essential in terms of managing the visit to the excavations of Pompeii.
