Pompeii visit. After the departure we'll reach Pompeii, the ancient Roman city which was buried by the lava during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Due to its healthy climate and pleasant scenery, 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! 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 in Pompeii. Enjoy a delicious lunch in a local restaurant in Pompeii

Herculaneum visit. At the end lunch in a typical restaurant we'll continue to the famous Herculaneum, the ancient Roman city which, according the legend, was founded by Hercules and which was buried with mud, cinder and lava during the eruption of the Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The assistant will give you the audioguides at the entrance of the excavations so you can have an intimate visit of approx 1h30min in history! Herculaneum, unlike Pompeii, was mainly covered by ash and mud, only partially by lava, so everything is better preserved than Pompeii: still houses have their doors and frescos in a very good status. This village was smaller than Pompeii and was mainly a residential area.
