Pompeii and Vesuvius: a tour that covers both is a must-do for anyone interested in history, archaeology, and natural beauty.
History: Pompeii is an ancient Roman city that was buried under volcanic ash and pumice when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79. The city was preserved for centuries under the ash, which means that visitors can now walk through the streets, houses, and public buildings of a city that was frozen in time almost 2000 years ago.
Archaeology: The ruins of Pompeii are a treasure trove of archaeological artifacts and details, providing insight into the daily life, culture, and technology of the ancient Romans. You can see frescoes, mosaics, sculptures, and even the casts of people who perished in the eruption.
Nature: Mount Vesuvius is one of the most famous and active volcanoes in the world, and a visit to the top of the mountain offers stunning views of the Bay of Naples and the surrounding landscape.
