On this day trip to Pompeii from Rome, we will explore Italy's history and archaeology by visiting the ruins of the city buried by Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD and taking a panoramic tour of Naples.

Day Trip Details

We will depart from Rome and traverse the fertile landscape, passing through the Castelli Romani region, including the town of Montecassino, site of a WWII battle.

After a 3-hour drive, we will arrive in Naples and start our sightseeing tour from the bus, viewing landmarks such as the Vomero and Posillipo districts, Egg Castle, Royal Palace, and Via Marina.

Next, we will have lunch at a restaurant with a menu consisting of pizza Margherita, Napolitana with mortadella or ham, mixed salad, dessert, and a drink option (water, wine, soft drink, or beer).

Following lunch, a 2-hour historical tour of the ruins of Pompeii will commence. This site, buried in volcanic ash, provides insight into life in an ancient Roman colony and was discovered 1,700 years later.

After exploring Pompeii, we will return to Rome, with arrival at Piazzale Flaminio scheduled 12 hours post-pickup.
