- Our Tour
Your private driver will be ready to meet you in the hotel lobby, so prepare yourself for an unforgettable journey through history with full immersion within of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Mount Vesuvius sites. The beginning of your private tour will be at the archaeological site of Pompeii. This ancient Roman city, preserved in extraordinary detail by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, provides a unique glimpse into the past. You’ll explore a city that remains partially veiled in mystery, the Archaeological Committee continues with ongoing research to unearth relics and artifacts buried beneath layers of volcanic ash and centuries of sediment. The second stop of your journey is Herculaneum: a nearby archaeological site that offers its own unique appeal. Unlike Pompeii, Herculaneum was buried under a dense layer of volcanic mud, resulting in incredibly well-preserved ruins. Discover the captivating history of this ancient Greek settlement, which, according to legend, was founded by Hercules himself. The last stop of your private tour will be at Mount Vesuvius area where you will enjoy lunch in a local Trattoria just before going up to this active Volcano. Although Vesuvius is still an active volcano, its last eruption occurred in 1944. After your exploration of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Mount Vesuvius, you’ll return back to your accommodation.
