Description
Departing from the port of Amalfi , with your private driver to Pompei where you will meet your guide for a walking tour of Pompei – Italy’s most famous archaeological site is a must-do if your time in the region is limited.
In 79 AD Pompei was buried in ash when Mt Vesuvius erupted, and the tour takes you through houses, streets and public buildings that have been preserved for almost 2000 years.
You will see the highlights of Pompei – the forum, baths, and beautiful frescoes of the ancient city – with an authorised guide explaining the significance and history of the these ruins.
Half Day GT bus + English speaking guide + headphones inside ruins with live commentary.
In Pompei you will meet your licensed guide who will take a marvellous tour lasting 2 hours, during which your guide will make Pompei come alive again for you: walking on the roman pavement, visiting the roman theatre, pretending to shop in the roman shops, visiting the roman temples and so on.
After this, you will find your driver ready to take you to the spectacular Amalfi coast.
The journey will start with a drive through the Sorrentine coast line, the view will be fantastic during the all journey: Vesuvius, the Sorrentine Peninsula, the brilliant blu of the Mediterranean sea, the high rocky coastline.
Your driver will be glad to stop, to take a photo in one of the many panoramic points.
Then you will make your way to the Amalfi coast and words will not be enough to describe the beauty of it. You will visit the lovely town of Amalfi, where you will decide whether to visit the Duomo of Saint Andrew, or to have a nice Italian home made icecream while having the best views of your life, or enjoy the shopping through the traditional shops of the town (ceramics, handmade sandals, handmade dresses).
