This fascinating day trip is a great way to get to know Naples old and new, and visit Pompeii, the famous Roman city buried by the eruption of Mt Vesuvius in 79 AD. You'll take a voyage through the ages of Western civilisation and see a snapshot of life in the days of ancient Rome.
First up, after crossing by ferry, and bus, your guide will lead you through the streets of Pompeii. Buried under volcanic ash by Vesuvius's eruption of 79 AD, it's now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Discover the richly decorated villas of the Roman nobility as well as the Forum, Amphitheatre and gladiator barracks.
After a short break for lunch, we'll visit the centuries-old Naples. See highlights such as the Phlegraean fields, Mergellina Port and the seafront of Via Caracciolo as we travel on a panoramic bus tour across the city, before heading to catch our ferry back.
