Half day excursion to Mt Vesuvius with wine tasting and lunch from Naples

First, you will be led to the slopes of the mountain where you will stop in a local restaurant with a breathtaking view of the bay of Naples. You will get to taste delicious local food while enjoying the wine of the vineyards located on the mountain. The Vesuvius area is still today characterized by the presence of ancient vine varieties in many vineyeards. Every wine (from Lacryma Christi to Caprettone) is able to tell the history of the area and can be conceived as an ambassador of the culture and traditions of the territory. 
Afterwards, our driver will lead you safely to the 1000 mt. and than you will walk to the real top of the vulcano to admire the huge crater and listen to the explanation about the many transformation of the mountain due to its vulcanic nature. You will have a great clue to understand how and why this great nature force was able to destroy the two cities of Pompeii and Hercolaneum about 20 centuries ago. For the present time, Vesuvius is considered safe and a visit to its crater gives both stunning views and an understanding of its role in local life.You will have enough time to take pictures and to enjoy your holiday on a non conventional tour of the area.
