From the Heart of Rome to the Wonders of Pompeii: A Full-Day Tour to the Ruins of Pompeii from Rome

Pompei is renowned for its archaeological excavations of the ancient Roman city, destroyed by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 AD. Together with Herculaneum and Oplontis, it forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. To make the day even more special, we highly recommend enjoying lunch at a traditional winery near Mt. Vesuvius, featuring a delicious local meal paired with a tasting of exclusive regional wines. The lunch and/or wine tasting can be paid directly at the restaurant.
