Pompeii and Vesuvius from Naples. Private activity
Overview
On August 24th of the year 79 AD, life flowed quietly on Vesuvius slopes. There were charming towns, inhabited by wealthy landowners and animated by merchants, shopkeepers and skilled artisans. The fire of Vesuvius froze that day for about two thousand years, under layers of volcanic material that gave back an open-air archaeological museum, thanks to the excavations started in the eighteenth century.
Today we retrace those places together, starting from the city of Pompeii, with its Domus, the streets, the market and the whole context of a civilization that has remained intact over the centuries. We will admire and touch with our hands what today is considered the most dangerous volcano in the world, the Vesuvius.
