Pompeii and Sorrento Day Trip

Itinerary

Around 10 am we will pick you up at your hotel, taking a bus to the ruins of Pompeii, 40 minutes away.

The eruption of Vesuvius in the first century AD left the Roman towns around it buried for centuries. We'll learn the effects of this catastrophe, visiting the buildings well conserved under the ashes. Walking along the Via della Fortuna we'll take in the House of the Faun one of the most luxurious buildings found within the ruins. We continue through the old Roman city to see the other important public spaces of the time, such as the thermal baths, the brothel or the amphitheatre, one of the most popular spaces for Pompeians to meet.

Having visited the ruins we will enjoy a lunch of pizza, with drinks included, and hit the road, stopping in front of the walls of the medieval castle which gives its name to the coastal area Castellmare di Stabia, and at one of its viewpoints we can admire panoramic views of the Neopolitan bay.

Continuing southwards we will arrive at the glamorous city of Sorrento. Here we will pass through the main points of interest and take in the public gardens of the Villa Comunale, from where we can contemplate the Sorrentino coast in all its majesty.

Having visited Sorrento we return to the bus to make the journey back to Naples, arriving around 5 pm.
