Pompeii tours & vacations

Explore the time capsule of Pompeii

The ruins of this once-thriving city offer a glimpse into life 2000 years ago. Step into the world of the ancient Pompeiians as you explore well-preserved theaters, bathhouses and cafes with a local history guide. Then hike up to the crater of Mt Vesuvius – the very volcano that destroyed it in 79 AD. But the adventure doesn’t stop there. You might also find yourself making authentic pizza or gelato on the Amalfi Coast, sailing out to Capri’s glittering Grotta Azzurra or tasting olive oil straight from the source at a traditional farmhouse.

Join a local history expert for a guided walk through the well-preserved villas, temples, theatres and markets, and listen to the stories of how this ancient civilization lived, worked and met their fate in 79 AD.

Hike up Mt Vesuvius

Meet a volcanology expert for a short hike up Mt Vesuvius – the volcano that buried Pompeii under molten rock and ash. The last eruption was in 1944, and while there’s no sign of lava, you can still peer over the crater rim where steam and sulphuric gases rise from the gravel. The 360-degree views over the Bay of Naples are just as impressive.

Eat proper pizza

Where better to eat one of the world's most beloved carbs than its birthplace, Naples? The smell of freshly baked dough and sizzling cheese fills the streets, and the options can be overwhelming (in the best way), but don’t worry – your local leader knows where to go. Just be warned: once you’ve had the real deal, you'll never look at takeaway pizza the same way again.
