What to Expect When Visiting Sorrento, Campania, Italy
Beautiful landscapes and fascinating history in just a single tour. From the archaeological sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum to the crater on the peak of Mount Vesuvius.
First of all you will visit and walk the 2000 years ago streets of Pompeii, the town which was destroyed by Mount Vesuvius eruption in AD 79.
Pompeii is a very popular tourist destination and it attracts almost 2.6 million visitors per year and the visit of this archaeological site goes together with the passion of art and history.
After the tour in Pompei (2 hours) we will drive you to mount Vesuvius, one of the most dangerous volcano of the world, which buried Pompeii and Herculaneum two thousand years ago.
By car you will stop at 3200 feet , from here you can walk up to the top of the mountain to look inside the crater, where sometimes it’s possible to see some fumes.
We continue on the way to reach Herculaneum, smaller than Pompeii, buried in the same period 79 A.D. but better preserved in the original splendour.
