The archaeological site of Pompeii, once covered under the ashes from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, was unearthed in the 18th century. As you enter, you will get lost in the past, trailing the ancient Roman way of life. You will pass excavations of theaters, baths, houses, shops and much more, everything in excellent conservation status and you will learn and enjoy the fascinating history behind the ancient city.
Herculaneum is one of the most famous and best preserved archaeological sites of the world. Here once a port town existed but in 79 AD. it was buried by the volcanic explosion of Mount Vesuvius: buildings, open spaces and the life which took place within were covered and lost in time. Here you can get a glimpse of what daily life was like, strolling through the old streets, entering the old buildings (some of them are very high!) and looking at the amazing mosaics in the public baths and gymnasium.
During your tour, have a rest in a local winery “Cantine del Vesuvio” and discover the secret of this deep-rooted production in a gorgeous scenery, on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius. Spend your time by walking through the vineyards and the garden with an expert guide who will introduce you the grape varieties and the local cultivation methods. You will see all the steps of wine production, from the presses, where it begins, to the barrel room, where the wine is aged. You will taste the local products in a terrace overlooking the sea: an appetizer with local products, spaghetti with local tomatoes and a traditional sweet combined with four kinds of wine and a distillate. Special menu for celiacs, vegetarians and vegans are also available upon request.
