Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Our driver will pick you up at your place (port, hotel, B&B, apartment) to bring you to the meeting with your private certified guide and go to Pompeii archaeological park. You will have the opportunity to discover the best preserved ancient roman city.
Expect detailed stories of those who inhabited the town and were suddenly covered beneath the plumes of burning ash, stopping the time at that moment and preserving the ancient city for us to discover it!
Pompeii was an immense market town and the favored resort for most wealthy Romans. With beautiful baths and lavishly decorated villas and houses, it is clear the Romans lived well. Moreover, the bakeries, mills, snack outlets, laundrette, temples, theatres, and the oldest amphitheater known to man – dating back to 80 BC – suggest the population understood how to look after themselves.

Stop 2

Small alleyways will bring you to a gorgeous atmosphere with infinite stalls with Christmas statues and decorations. Artisanal shops display typical good luck symbols and Pulcinella souvenirs.

Stop 3

One of the most photographed squares of Italy is the vast Piazza del Plebiscito, with the unmistakable dome and colonnades of the church of San Francesco di Paola that faces the Royal Palace.
In the same area, your private guide will show you the Teatro San Carlo, Naples Opera House, commissioned by the Bourbon King Charles III of Naples.
Galleria Umberto I is another architectural must-see of Naples. This elegant shopping galley of the 19th century is richly decorated with stuccoes and mosaics enlighted by its iron and glass ceiling.
