Explore the remnants of the prosperous Roman town and witness the tragic plaster casts of its citizens that were preserved in the volcanic ash. The tour includes a stop off at Naples for a brief panoramic view of the city before making your way to Pompeii.



Head out of Rome and take the Autostrada del Sole south through the beautiful Italian countryside, admiring the rolling hills of Lazio and Campania. Enjoy a panoramic overview of Italy’s largest and most vibrant city, Naples, before heading south again to Pompeii. A traditional Italian lunch is included in the tour.



Once a thriving Roman town, Pompeii was destroyed by the unforeseen AD79 eruption of Vesuvius, which lies in between the town and Naples. Take yourself back in time to imagine the daily life in the settlement and put yourself in the shoes of the men and women who lost their lives that fateful day. Then witness the harrowing moulds of the victims themselves, preserved imprinted in the ash that surrounded them.
