The eruption of Mount Vesuvius devastated the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum. This day trip will explore what these cities were like.
Description
We will pick you up at your meeting point and drive to the ruins of Pompeii, buried under lava and ash during the 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius.
Upon arrival, we will begin a guided tour of Pompeii. This tour lasts approximately 2 hours, covering key sites such as the House of the Faun, the Amphitheatre, and the House of Menander. Guests will learn about the lives of Pompeii's citizens and the potential to have foreseen the eruption. After the tour, you will have 1 hour of free time for lunch in the area.
After lunch, we will proceed to Herculaneum, another city buried by lava in 79 AD. Here, we will explore well-preserved sites, including the Casa dei Cervi and the Sacello degli Augustali.
