DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Pompeii was a vital and important trading town in Ancient Roman times. Frozen in a moment in time by mud and ash from Mt. Vesuvius’ violent eruption in 79 A.D., its excellent state of preservation gives a very clear idea of life in a Roman town of that period.

After your guided visit through the past, you’ll move to the resort town of Sorrento. Its position perched on a rocky plateau, affords stunning views over the Bay of Naples to Mt. Vesuvius and to the islands of Ischia and Capri in the Tyrrhenian Sea. A resort town since Ancient Roman times, you can pass a delightful afternoon here shopping, strolling the Old Town or simply admiring the views while sampling local culinary specialties.
