Itinerary

1. 1

   Archaeological Park of Pompeii

   2h

   After the complimentary pick-up, you will enjoy a picturesque 2 hours drive along the Tyrrhenian coast to Pompeii and there, with your private tour guide and skip the line tickets, you will visit the world renowned Pompeii archaeological site. This UNESCO World Heritage site was once a seaside resort and party-town for ancient Romans until tragedy struck one fateful April day in 79 AD when Mount Vesuvius famously erupted, burying the city, seaside and surrounding the whole area in volcanic ash. Pompeii was then lost to the world for over a millennium and a half until its ruins were first discovered in 1599, and then rediscovered 150 years later. Pompeii’s artifacts and remaining frescoes, mosaics, and structures give us an incredible insight into what life was like during the late Republic and early Roman Empire.
