About this experience
Step back in time and experience the perfect mix of history, art, and Mediterranean beauty. Your day begins among the Ruins of Pompeii, where a professional guide will bring to life the streets, houses, and frescoes of the ancient Roman city buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
The journey continues along the legendary Amalfi Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its dramatic cliffs and breathtaking views. You’ll visit Ravello, an elegant hilltop town renowned for its villas and gardens that seem to hover between sky and sea, and Amalfi, the historic maritime republic with its majestic cathedral and vibrant alleys.
Before returning, stop in Vietri sul Mare, the “ceramic capital” of the coast, where colors, craftsmanship, and tradition blend perfectly with the scent of the sea.
A full-day experience combining culture, beauty, and emotion — the essence of Southern Italy.
