Pompeii is one of the most stunning archaeological sites on the Italian Peninsula and one of the most visited.

Visitors experience the city much as it existed more than 2000 years ago. Explore Vesuvio, the giant volcano dominating the Bay of Naples. Drive up to 3000 feet through the old crater, then hike the final 25 minutes along a zigzagging path of volcanic gravel to the summit. From the top, peer into the vast crater of Vesuvius and enjoy breathtaking views of the Sorrento Peninsula and the islands of Capri, Ischia, and Procida.

    Mount Vesuvius

    After a morning exploring the ancient ruins of Pompeii and hiking the slopes of Mount Vesuvius, travelers will unwind at a picturesque vineyard perched on the volcano’s fertile slopes. Here, the vineyard produces the celebrated Lacryma Christi wine, literally “Tear of Christ,” grown in mineral-rich volcanic soil that gives the wines their unique character. Guests will enjoy a leisurely lunch paired with a guided wine tasting, sampling a selection of local wines alongside traditional Italian dishes such as cheeses, cured meats, and fresh bread. As you sip and savor, the stunning view of Mount Vesuvius unfolds, just as the ancient inhabitants of Pompeii once gazed upon it.
