In the Pompeii excavations between history and archaeology
Guided tour of the ancient city and tasting in a nearby cellar, to immerse yourself in a thousand-year-old beauty
Pompeii is an ancient city buried by the fury of Vesuvius with all its inhabitants in October 79 AD: a rediscovered place that, thanks to the ash and lapilli, has remained perfectly preserved and allows visitors to discover all the secrets of ancient Roman civilization. Depart from Sorrento and reach the Archaeological Park with a private driver. Explore with a guide its splendid painted and mosaic villas, among frescoes that date back two thousand years. As in a journey through time, visit the homes and temples walking through the streets: the shops and houses, in addition to having returned objects of "everyday" life of the time, guard the skeletons of those who were trying to escape. At the end of the walk, recharge in a nearby cellar enjoying a lunch based on typical products paired with local wines. A dive into history on the border between land and sea.
