Vesuvius & Herculaneum Excursion

We'll meet at 9:30 am at Piazza Garibaldi, where we'll board a bus to Herculaneum, an ancient Roman city with significant wealth and cultural heritage.

Upon arrival, you'll receive a skip-the-line ticket to the site, allowing you to explore at your leisure. Important monuments include the House of the Deer, the Forum Baths, and buildings with colorful mosaics such as the House of Neptune and Amphitrite.

After three hours of visiting the ruins of Herculaneum, we'll proceed to Mount Vesuvius, enjoying the scenery of the Gulf of Naples along the way.

Upon arrival, we'll ascend to an altitude of 1,000 meters. Here, you can take the path on your own to the crater of Vesuvius, accompanied by views of the Bay of Naples.

You will see slopes formed by solidified lava flows and learn about the eruption that buried Herculaneum and Pompeii in 79 AD.

After visiting Vesuvius, we'll return to Naples, dropping you off at the starting point around 4:30 pm.
