Pompeii, the Excavations
A Full Day Excursion from Rome.

Nothing compares to the magic and mystery of Pompeii. You view the seemingly tranquil Mt. Vesuvius and then walk among the remains of a city buried underneath 30 feet of ash during its violent eruption. A bakery, theatre, gymnasium and public bath all stand sentinels to a time and lifestyle literally sucked breathless in a split second then entombed for a thousand years.

The dazzling turquoise water and brilliant sunshine of the bay of Naples is dramatic. Tiny, colourful villages clinging to steep cliffs high above the sea,  islands and coast ablaze with lemon groves make the South unforgettable.
