Descrição

Lava and ash petrified the citizens of Pompeii, leaving them as a historical record. Discover the history of the world's most famous volcanic eruption and climb the volcano itself on this excursion.

Description

At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Naples, the train station, or the marina, for a 7-8 hour day trip.

After a 40-minute drive, we reach Pompeii, a renowned archaeological site. Following the eruption of Mount Vesuvius on August 24, 79 AD, the town's inhabitants were buried. Accompanied by a guide, we'll visit buildings excavated in the 18th century, including the forum, thermal baths, and theatre, as well as the Roman brothel with its erotic paintings.

After the guided visit of Pompeii, we will have a light lunch with soft drinks or water before heading to Torre del Greco to begin our ascent of Mount Vesuvius. The effort is rewarded with stunning views of Naples Bay from the peak.

After descending Vesuvius, we will return to Naples by bus, completing the excursion in 7-8 hours.

Language

An accompanying guide will provide explanations during the bus ride.
During the ascent of Mount Vesuvius, park guides will assist; availability of an English-speaking guide is not guaranteed.

Climbing Mount Vesuvius

Climbing Mount Vesuvius is done by foot, and the summit is at an altitude of 1,000 metres. It is recommended to wear comfortable shoes, clothing, and to bring water.
Anybody with limited mobility, or who does not want to climb to the summit, can wait for the group at the rest point, at the foot of the volcano.
Although it is unusual, for meteorological reasons the crater is sometimes closed. Should this be the case, the tour makes a stop at a viewpoint to take photos, and we will refund the tickets to the crater (11.68EUR per person).
