Full Description

Herculaneum – Explore the Ancient Ruins with Your Private Guide: Begin your adventure by exploring Herculaneum, an ancient Roman town buried by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 A.D. With tickets included, your private guide will take you on a two-hour walking tour, showcasing the remarkably well-preserved homes, temples, and thousands of everyday objects, including fruit, beds, and even price lists outside the shops. This town offers an incredible window into ancient Roman life.

Mt. Vesuvius – Hike to the Crater and Enjoy Spectacular Views: After Herculaneum, embark on a hike up Mt. Vesuvius, the very volcano that caused the destruction of the ancient cities. Standing at about 4,200 feet, the summit offers panoramic views of the Gulf of Naples, including Sorrento, Procida, and Ischia. Whether you hike to the top or enjoy the view from a lower point, the experience is unforgettable.

Vineyard Visit – Taste Wines Produced on the Slopes of the Volcano: After your hike, relax with a wine tasting at a local vineyard situated on the slopes of Mt. Vesuvius. You will sample four distinct wines, including the renowned Lacryma Christi, known for its rich, unique flavor. The tasting will be paired with a light lunch, featuring a selection of starters such as bruschette, cured meats, or vegetables, followed by a local pasta dish with tomato sauce. Depending on availability, your meal may also include either a cheese tasting or dessert.

This all-inclusive tour is perfect for those who want to immerse themselves in the history of ancient Roman life, enjoy the stunning natural beauty of the area, and indulge in local wines and cuisine.

Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to explore Herculaneum, hike Mt. Vesuvius, and savor the best of the region’s wine and food!
