This tour focuses on visiting the two main archaeological sites in the region: Pompeii and Herculaneum, the ancient Roman cities swept away by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD Considered of great importance to the Roman Empire , they were at their social and economic peak at the time of the disaster. The main difference between the two places is that Pompeii was a lively city, a gateway for traders and travelers, while the latter was more a residential village for aristocrats and intellectuals.

Included on this tour is only round-trip transportation to the two sites.
