First Stop: Pompeii – Step Back in Time

Your adventure begins with a short drive from Naples to Pompeii, where the echoes of the past come alive. Skip the lines and dive straight into the ancient city, preserved by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. You’ll be guided through the excavations, with a private expert showing you the highlights of this UNESCO World Heritage site. Explore the fascinating streets, homes, public baths, and theatres that reveal the daily lives of the Romans before disaster struck. With two hours to explore, you’ll have time to soak in the grandeur of Pompeii’s history.

Option with Herculaneum – A Hidden Gem

If you select the Herculaneum option, your next stop after Pompeii will be Herculaneum, one of the best-preserved Roman towns. Here, your guide will lead you through the archaeological site, showcasing its stunning frescoes, mosaics, and private villas. Please note that tickets for Herculaneum are not included and must be purchased on-site.

Next: The Majestic Mt. Vesuvius

After Pompeii (and Herculaneum if you’ve chosen the extended option), your driver will take you to the summit of Mt. Vesuvius, the active volcano that dramatically changed the course of history. As you climb to the crater, enjoy spectacular views of the Bay of Naples and surrounding areas. Although there’s no guide for the Vesuvius portion, the experience is awe-inspiring, and your driver will ensure you're well taken care of throughout.
