A private Day Tour on the three main sites that represent the eruption of the volcano Vesuvius. Pompeii, Herculaneum and Vesuvius for visitors who are interested in Roman history or about the geology of the area, is recommended. We will take you with our limousines to the ruins, where you can experience and see the magnitude of the eruption in 79 BC and all the people who lay buried for many centuries. It’s staggering but is only one part of the story.
Pompeii is the much larger and more famous of the two archaeological sites. Although the buildings are not as well preserved as at Herculaneum, Pompeii offers the visitor a wider view of Roman life, with shops, houses, streets, amphitheatres, the Forum, baths and a gladiator arena.
Just down the road from Italy’s most-visited tourist attraction are the little-known Herculaneum is much smaller but better preserved than Pompeii.
Vesuvius, exactly from any of those two places you can see the sleeping giant which has erupted last time in 1944. Naples, the culture contained in this city simply stuns. There is so much to visit, what are you waiting?
