Day Trip to Pompeii and Amalfi Coast

About this experience

The city of Pompeii is a Roman Empire city near Naples, buried by ash during the eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius in year 79 AD. An incredible voyage through time to admire a snapshot of a great city of the past. A great cloud of sulphuric gas actually killed the all population  of 25000, and the bodies were then covered by the fine ash from the Volcano eruption. In 1800 the italian archeologists filled with plaster the molds of the body and managed to recreate them in plaster with astonishing details, must see. Then the divine Amalfi coast with its elegant city of Sorrento, followed by the cozy city of Positano where we shall try out the famous napolitanos cousine (lunch not included in fare) with a breath taking view of the sea and coastline.
