TOUR
DESCRIPTION
Two-thirds
of the ancient city of Pompeii has been excavated allowing you
to explore this once flourishing civilisation.
Take
a guided walk through the rocky ruins of the excavated city of Pompeii.
The baths and the theatres, the wrestling ground and the
luxurious villas stand empty, yet there are many echoes of
Pompeii's daily life; the wine jars are still set on the
counter of the wine shop, the stepping stones are there to
help you cross the street in the rainy season, and the mosaic
floors and brilliant frescoes are a wonder to this very day.
The plaster casts of the volcano's victims are particularly
poignant and one can never forget the horrible events that
brought life in Pompeii to an end.
Your
driver guide or tour guide will recount the fascinating story
of Pompeii, its demise and how it has been miraculously
excavated and restored over hundreds of years.
During
your drive to Pompeii, you will have views of Vesuvius, the
still-active volcano located about 15 miles south east of
Naples.
Then
from Pompeii we will take a small drive to Visit the charming Amalfi
Coast,enjoy stunning coastal scenery Enjoy a
leisurely drive along the Amalfi Coast, the most famous drive
in all of Italy, described by John Steinbeck as ‘a dream place
that isn't quite real'.
Are
first stop will be Positano that
sits in a splendid panoramic position on one of the most
beautiful stretches of coastline . Its enchanting town center
of delightful pastel-hued houses surrounds the parish church
of Santa Maria Assunta, its laneways are lined with quaint,
colorful shops and its numerous beaches are world famous.We
shall have time for a lunch (not included in fare), with
seaview right on Positano..
Time
for Sorrentoi. You will have space of a limoncello. You can
here enjoy some free time to wander the narrow streets,
or perhaps relax with a coffee or ice-cream in the ‘piazza'
and absorb the atmosphere.

buses.
