Full description

Following your tour pickup, you will make your way south to explore the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Stroll through the streets of the Roman city of Pompeii and check the numerous different UNESCO archaeological sites, such as the Herculaneum. Both archaeological sites feature the excavated ruins of alleyways and homes where you are free to explore. These locations are also fascinating in that archaeologists are still continuing to unearth the remains of a place forever locked in time. Following your exploration of the ruins, drive up to Mount Vesuvius, the volcano that destroyed Pompeii 2,000 years ago. You can stop to enjoy the view of the Bay of Naples from the top, as you enjoy a delicious lunch.

Pompeii and Herculaneum were excellent, lunch was lovely, but major problem with Vesuvius. They never informed us we needed to order our tickets online 2 days in advance so we drove all the way there for a 10 min stop and go. That part was beyond disappointing! Also I thought we would get some intel about Napoli on our way to Pompeii. Instead the driver and the guide talked to each other in Italian the whole way! Caution…surprise them with tickets snd see if they let you climb Vesuvius.

Bellissimo tour alla scoperta di Pompei ed Ercolano accompagnate dal super Vicenzo, il nostro autista super gentile e simpatico che ci ha raccontato tanto di Napoli. Pranzo incluso nel pacchetto super buono con antipasto, spaghetto al pomodoro, dolce ed anche una degustazione di ben tre vini. Grazie a Vincenzo e alle guide dei due siti. Super consigliato questo tour!
