Duration 14 hours
Private tour pricing from 125 EUR per person
Group tour available in English, Spanish
The tour started with picking us up at our hotel and bringing us to the tour group's buses. The guide was very knowledgeable and spoke in both English and Spanish. The views from Naples was amazing, as was the tour of the fort. Next stop was a delicious pizza lunch with salad and a drink - which was very tasty. Off we went to Pompeii, which was the highlight of the day. I do wish we had more time to explore Pompeii as there is so much to see. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and took great care to answer everyone's questions. Do wear comfortable walking shoes; and if you have any stability issues, please bring either a cane or walking stick. All-in-all it was well worth the money and time spent; and I highly recommend it.
Highlights
See the main square of Naples, Piazza del Plebiscito
Taste a real Neapolitan pizza
Learn the fascinating history of Pompeii
Description
We begin with a walk through the historic center of Naples to admire Piazza del Plebiscito, the Royal Palace, Piazza del Municipio, the Gallery of Umberto I and San Carlo Opera House.
We'll then stop for some lunch which will include traditional
Neapolitan pizza and other yummy local dishes (water and one soft drink included) before heading to Pompeii.
A knowledgeable local guide will then lead you through the famous UNESCO-listed excavations. This ancient Roman city was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, which buried and preserved it under a sea of volcanic ash for almost 1700 years, until 1748, when the site was discovered by chance during normal excavations. It's a truly fascinating place!
The tour will give you the opportunity to visit a coral and cameo factory, to admire items manufactured by a technique dating back to Ancient Greek times.
We will then take you back to Rome and drop you off in the city at a centrally located stop (three stops to choose from).
