Embark on a fascinating day trip from Rome to Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius. This private tour of Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius features
the lost city of Pompeii. Thirty feet of hot
mud and volcanic ash buried this Roman city
completely when Mt. Vesuvius erupted in 79
A.D. You will have a detailed private walking
tour of this once-prosperous trading center,
established in 12th century B.C. With your
private guide to this magnificent Roman town,
you will explore its streets and squares, public
buildings (temples, spas, theaters and the
amphitheater), storefronts, houses, pizza parlors,
and other artifacts from Pompeii’s heyday.
After your private guided tour of Pompeii, you will
have lunch to fuel up for the trip up Mt. Vesuvius.
Your guided tour of Mt. Vesuvius begins with the slow trip up the
windy road up the hill until the parking lot
to the crater. You must leave the car behind
here and take a 30-minute hike of moderate
difficulty to the top, which reaches nearly
4,200 feet. The views and fresh air here are
well worth the effort.
