Day Trip to Mount Vesuvius & Pompeii Ruins from Rome – Private Tour

Pompei

About this experience

Take a deep breath and relieve the last days of the ancient Romans that were living in the city of Pompeii. 
Leave your place in Rome at 7am with your English Speaking Driver that will keep you entertained while going south.

Drive to the top of Mount Vesuvius, the volcano that erupted back in 79 A.D., to enjoy the amazing landscape and to see where it all begun.

Have a lunch stop after the hike if you like to enjoy some local authentic Pizza (or whatever you may like) and then go to take an instructive and entertaining tour of the archeological area of Pompeii with your private tour guide. After the visit drive back to Rome to be back around 7PM at your place.
