Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Highlights along the way include lunch at a local restaurant in Pompeii, a stop at a cameo factory and a fascinating guided tour of the ruins of Pompeii. Discover the archeological excavations of a lost city buried deep beneath the ash when Mt. Vesuvius violently erupted in 79 A.D. Walk the grounds of this UNESCO World Heritage Site as your guide points out remarkably preserved remains of a wealthy community's daily life-including elaborately detailed mosaics and colorful frescoes. This monumental catastrophe entombed the city, yet preserved a moment in time more than 2,000 years ago for us to observe.
