Full description

Discover the wonders of ancient Pompeii and the majesty of Mount Vesuvius on this combined full-day guided tour from Naples.
Begin with a pickup from the centrally located meeting point in Naples and a transfer by minivan or minibus to the ruins at Pompeii. There will be a tour assistant on the bus during this part of the excursion.

On arrival in Pompeii, meet your guide and then explore the ruins for around 2 hours to discover the traditions and daily life of ancient Pompeii. You’ll see the large theater, the necropolis, the thermal baths, and some of the amazing houses that were owned by the richest residents.

Savor a light lunch in a typical restaurant in the area before making your way to Mount Vesuvius. Take a relaxing stroll through the nature reserve before embarking on a leisurely walk to the top to experience breathtaking panoramic views of the whole Gulf of Naples.

Itinerary

Pick up. Pick up at your hotel or private location in Naples between 7:45am and 8:30 by luxury minivan and driver.

Pompeii excavation visit. Pompeii was a holiday resort for rich Romans. Your guide will warmly welcome you at entrance of the excavations and will take you to an unforgettable walking visit of around 2 hours in history with skip the line tickets! Discover how everything here has remained intact, preserved over time by the lava of Vesuvius, learn the interesting story of the daily life of the ancient Romans and admire the unique buildings, houses and temples made with advanced architectural techniques.

Lunch at local restaurant. Enjoy a delicious lunch at local restaurant

Vesuvius volcano visit. After the lunch we’ll depart to Vesuvius, reaching by car the height of 1.000mtrs then accompanied by an expert volcanological guide we’ll ascend the crater with a 20 mins walk. From here you can admire the wonderful view of the Gulf of Naples on the horizon and walk on one of the still active craters of Europe. The eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD is the main eruptive event that occurred on Vesuvius in historical times. The eruption, which profoundly changed the morphology of the volcano and the surrounding territories, resulted in the destruction of the cities of Herculaneum, Pompeii, Oplontis and Stabia, whose ruins, which were buried under layers of pumice, were brought to light starting from the 18th century.
