A trek around Pompeii offers an intriguing experience. You will feel as though you are sauntering through a city still bustling with life. Your guide will provide insights into the city’s history and Roman lifestyle, highlighting key public structures and residential houses.
In contrast to Pompeii, which was draped in five meters of ash, Herculaneum was swallowed by a mudslide 20 meters thick. This resulted in Herculaneum being smaller yet better conserved than Pompeii. Here you can witness preserved two-story buildings, carbonized wooden artifacts, undisturbed paintings, and mosaics. Our guide’s narration will bring the city to life.
