Enjoy a private day trip from your Hotel or your accommodation in the area of Campania for visit to the ruins of Pompeii and the modern city of Naples, traveling by a comfortable minivan.

Following your hotel pick-up, your driver will drive directly to the entrance of Pompeii, situated on a volcanic plateau on the southern slope of Mt. Vesuvius. Learn the tragic story behind the everyday Roman town as you wander the streets between former houses and shops.

Then we’ll transfer to Naples, which will give us unique opportunity to compare one of the most energetic cities in the world with the solemn world of the antiquity. First, to regain power, we’ll stop for a lunch in a classical pizzeria to taste a pizza.

The tour around Naples will take 2 more hours, during which we’ll see both the historical and more recent parts of the metropolis.

The itinerary can be subjected to slight variations due to the closure of some locations or due to overcrowding.
