Begin your journey with a private pickup from your hotel, whisking you away to the ancient city of Pompeii.
Immerse yourself in history with a private guided tour of Pompeii. Explore the grandeur of the Amphitheatre, the Gladiators' Gymnasium, the Lupanar, the Thermal Baths, and the bustling Forum. Founded in the 7th century B.C., Pompeii offers a unique window into Roman life, contrasting with Rome's monumental architecture by showcasing the daily routines and vibrant society of its residents.
As a Roman colony since 80 B.C., Pompeii flourished with majestic temples, villas, and palaces until a devastating earthquake struck in 63 A.D. The city was being rebuilt when Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D., entombing Pompeii under layers of molten lava and ash. Witness the haunting remains of around two thousand inhabitants, preserved in their final moments.
Your Pompeii exploration includes the iconic Amphitheatre, army barracks, sacred temples, bustling shops, and enduring frescoes.
Enjoy free time for lunch or choose an optional light wine tasting lunch on the slopes of Vesuvius (not included).
In the afternoon, embark on a scenic drive up Mount Vesuvius. A brief 20-minute hike will lead you to the summit, where you can peer into the dramatic crater and take in panoramic views.
Conclude your day with a relaxing return to your hotel.
