Pompeii Ruins:
Visiting Pompeii is not like a museum , is as live again in an ancient roman commercial town of 3 Km. Buildings, temples, shops catched in the time of the eruption.

Born in the archaic age and initially inhabited by an indigenous settlement, the city was later exposed to Samnitic, Greek, and Etruscan influences, up to the predominance of Roman civilisation, still today visible and in an excellent state of preservation. Situated on a volcanic plateau, sheer over the sea, Herculaneum like the other cities of Vesuvius was submerged by the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A.D., which buried it beneath a layer of debris measuring up to twenty-three metres in height.

Amazing experience from the comfortable ride to the knowledgable and fun guide…much better experience than a group with other people or trying to take a train down from Rome.

A must do! A wonderful day seeing the ruins with a lovely lunch and wine tasting stop near Mt. Vesuvius. We had an excellent driver (Gianni) and amazing on site guide (Marie Elyse). Definitely a splurge but you won’t regret it- from the minute of pick up until we returned everything was 5 star. Thank you!!!

This was a wonderful experience!! The driver was very good and courteous and was waiting for us before the pick up time - he is an ambulance driver in Rome if you can imagine, so we were glad he was driving. The mozzarella tasting was perfectly timed for a nice breakfast and the guide was very interesting and informative. The lunch at the winery was really fantastic - great wine, great food, beautiful setting, wonderful tour guide. Herculaneum was a highlight - FAR less crowded than Pompeii and the frescoes and mosaics were much more impressive. We were all very glad we included that. I wish we had more time in Pompeii to visit the small museum before rushing off for lunch. If you want to see lots of artifacts discovered in the cities, visit the museum in Naples. A combo trip to include the museum would be amazing!
