Tour Itinerary:
Stop 1: Pompeii

After being picked up at your hotel by private coach, you'll head with your group and guide directly to the vast ruin site of Pompeii. When the volcano of Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 A.D., it not only completely buried this adjacent city—it entombed it. Today, the excavated ruins here comprise one of the most markably preserved ancient sites in the world. You’ll get to roam through the streets walked by early Pompeiians; you can also peek into the temples, houses, shops, theaters, and even brothels where they once spent their days. Most haunting of all are the plaster casts of human remains you may see at the site, which show the poses, and even facial expressions, of long-ago Pompeii residents in their final moments.
