Pompeii Archaeological Park

Pompeii is one of the most significant pieces of evidence of Roman civilization and provides exceptional information on the art, customs, crafts and daily life of the past. The city has re-emerged after centuries just as it would have been when it was buried in the layer of ash and lava from the eruption of Vesuvius in the year 79 AD. - If you want I can find a guide for your tour (the price of the guide is not included in the tour) - After the visit, the customer can decide to stop for lunch in a restaurant near Pompeii. For adults, together with lunch you can have a tasting of typical Vesuvius wines. Afterwards everyone will be able to take a guided tour of the cellars and vineyards. The lunch with visit will last approximately 2 hours - You will probably need to add extra hours if you add lunch, as it will take more than 4 hours, but we will decide this together. (TASTING IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE PRICE, MINIMUM VALUE €45)
