Full description
Enjoy a superb 8-hour tour that combines diverse experiences, driving along the coast of the Sorrentine Peninsula to the laid-back town of Sorrento, an elegant seaside town on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
A favorite among artists, poets, and musicians, including Goethe, its unique atmosphere gave inspiration to famous characters like Casanova. Stroll through elegant piazzas, and experience the Italian lifestyle, wandering along narrow streets lined with little shops, high fashion boutiques, outdoor cafès, and restaurants.
Continue to Pompeii to walk along roads once walked on by Roman citizens in the bustling town before it was destroyed by the volcanic eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A.D. Temples, houses, villas, shops, and theaters were all frozen in time by the event, and the ruins are a like a time machine back to the days of the Roman Empire.
Finally, drive to the top of the very volcano that destroyed Pompeii nearly 2,000 years ago and get breathtaking views of the islands of Capri and Ischia, the Bay of Naples, and more.
