Itinerary

The Pompeii Archaeological Park is one of the most remarkable and well-preserved ancient Roman sites in the world. Buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, the city remained hidden for centuries before being rediscovered. Today, visitors can explore its remarkably intact streets, homes, temples, theaters, and bathhouses, all frozen in time. The park offers a fascinating glimpse into daily life in ancient Rome, with stunning frescoes, mosaics, and artifacts that have been preserved under layers of volcanic ash. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site, attracting millions of visitors who come to marvel at its historical significance and preservation.
Mount Vesuvius is an active volcano located on the Bay of Naples, best known for its catastrophic eruption in 79 AD that destroyed the Roman cities of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Stabiae. This eruption is one of the most famous in history, as it preserved these cities under layers of volcanic ash, providing a remarkable snapshot of ancient Roman life. As a symbol of both destruction and preservation, Mount Vesuvius continues to be a key site for geological study and historical exploration.
