Itinerary

Vesuvius National Park

Mount Vesuvius is one of the most attractive volcanos in the world. It is internationally renowned for the 79 A.D. eruption, which destroyed the Roman cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Oplontis and Stabiae. From a distance, the Vesuvius seems to be harmless but when the brave tourist approaches near its crater, he feels the power of the “big Giant”. Departing from Pompeii, you will reach an altitude of 1000 meters, and from the parking area you will reach the crater following a trekking path that usually takes 30 minutes. Once there, enjoy the breathtaking view of the Bay of Naples.

Pompeii Archaeological Park

The mysterious ruins of ancient Pompeii offer such an immersive travel and overwhelming experience like no other archaeological site in the whole world. Let yourself feel like a Pompeii inhabitant, walk down ancient streets and stroll around millennia-old houses, temples, shops, cafes, amphitheatres and thermal baths. You can admire the thermal baths, the frescos of the Lupanare, the Macellum and the Basilica. Pompeii was not simply blown away by the Vesuvius eruption in 79 A.D., but buried under layers of debris, ashes and mud, as well. The result is the priceless value of this UNESCO site and a well-preserved slice of ancient Roman life.
