POMPEI ERCOLANO E VEUSUVIO DRIVE DA NAPOLI
POMPEII HERCULANEUM AND VEUSUVIUS DRIVE FROM NAPLES
After a long sleep, Vesuvius woke up on August 24, 79 AD. This eruption was apocalyptic, as it destroyed the ancient Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Discover two ancient cities in one day, through the Pompeii, Herculaneum and Vesuvius drive tour, and then climb to the top of Vesuvius, the volcano that destroyed them in 79 AD. Stroll through the streets of the commercial city of Pompeii and notice the differences with the elegant and noble houses of Herculaneum, the second archaeological site in our region. Here, you will be able to explore the most interesting places of the ruins of Pompeii: the Basilica, the Macellum, the Forum and the famous House of the Faun. On this tour you will be able to relive the atmosphere of the era and thus go back in time, walking along the preserved streets of the city, browsing among the houses, temples, bars, shops and amphitheatres.
Herculaneum was discovered in the 18th century and became one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world. The tour of Herculaneum will prove to be the right opportunity to admire the famous houses, built in that era and now true points of reference for any visitor to the site such as the house with the Atrium mosaics, the house of the Deer, the house of the Neptune mosaic and Amphitrite or even the Forum thermal baths, places that certainly deserve to be visited. This site is smaller than Pompeii but still deserves attention. Small houses, frescoes and a fantastic view will allow you to preserve a beautiful memory of Herculaneum.
After the visit to the excavations, you will continue with a tasting at a typical local restaurant before reaching Vesuvius for a panoramic tour, the last step before returning to Naples.
