Pompei & Positano from Rome

Day trip to Pompei and The Amalfi Coast from Rome with Positano

Nothing compares to the magic and mystery of Pompeii. You will view the seemingly tranquil Mt. Vesuvius and then walk among the remains of a city buried underneath 30 feet of ashes during its violent eruption. A bakery, theater, gymnasium, and public bath all stand sentinels to a time and lifestyle literally sucked breathless in a split second then entombed for a thousand years.

Nothing compares to the magic and mystery of Pompeii

Extension to Positano: The dazzling turquoise water and brilliant sunshine of the bay of Naples is dramatic. Tiny, colorful villages clinging to steep cliffs high above the sea, islands and coast ablaze with lemon groves make the South unforgettable.

A bit of History of Pompeii:

Largely preserved under the ash, the excavated city offered a unique snapshot of Roman life, frozen at the moment it was buried, although much of the detailed evidence of the everyday life of its inhabitants was lost in the excavations. It was a wealthy town, enjoying many fine public buildings and luxurious private houses with lavish decorations, furnishings and works of art which were the main attractions for the early excavators.

Organic remains, including wooden objects and human bodies, were entombed in the ash. Over time, they decayed, leaving voids which archaeologists found could be used as moulds to make plaster casts of unique, and often gruesome, figures in their final moments of life. The numerous graffiti carved on the walls and inside rooms provide a wealth of examples of the largely lost Vulgar Latin spoken colloquially at the time, contrasting with the formal language of the classical writers.

Pompeii is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2.5 million visitors annually.

After many excavations prior to 1960 that had uncovered most of the city but left it in decay, further major excavations were banned and instead they were limited to targeted, prioritised areas. In 2018, these led to new discoveries in some previously unexplored areas of the city.
