- Pompeii Archaeological Park - In the morning, depart with your driver to reach Pompeii, a UNESCO World Heritage site and the most visited Roman site after the Colosseum in Rome. Meet your tour guide and discover that everything here is preserved, brought back to life after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. Centuries of archaeological excavations have uncovered houses, shops, squares, brothels, and even entire human figures preserved by the lava from Vesuvius’ eruption. Marvel at Roman architecture in the stunning villas (the most famous being Villa dei Misteri) and public buildings such as the Forum, the Macellum (Market), and the amphitheater.
- Parco Archeologico di Ercolano - Next, visit Herculaneum, the city that, according to legend, was founded by Hercules. Although the houses here are smaller than those in Pompeii, they are no less fascinating. Herculaneum is also a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Additionally, you can ask the driver to make a stop at a local factory to observe the production process of Cameos and Corals, an ancient Roman art form.

Good tour! - Delightful guide provided just the right amount of details at each site. I am glad we saw both sites. And the pizza lunch was a nice ending!

Expensive - Pompeii was outstanding, Julia our guide was so informative we loved every minute of the tour.
Roberto picked us up and he was also very informative and attentive.
Lunch was included but the venue was dirty, no air conditioning and the temperature was 35c and there was no one else at the restaurant, we were handed a menu and told we could choose 1 drink each and 2 pizzas but no limits were set by the waiter who couldn’t understand English, Roberto had to interpret and then advised anything else would be extra an charge. We ordered 1 pizza for €13 and a salad for €10, the Pizza was soggy and our salad was not cold and was boring. I would rate this tour as advertised a 3 star definitely over priced for what is received.
Herculaneum was a waist of time.
