Vesuvio & Ercolano full day with private transport

From ancient times the fight between these 2 energies is giving shape to the human soul. In the same way, for more than 200. 000 years, Vesuvio is giving shape to the area, creating the beauty and the abundance that fascinated Greeks and Roman, but also destroying Pompei and Ercolano. This tour will show you the source of everything! We will climb the volcano until the crater with a 2 hours hike. From the top we will see the islands, the land and the ruins of the forgotten towns, catching how deep the impact of such presence is still affecting our life. Then we will follow the trace of the eruption back until the ruins of Ercolano, digging into the history and the archaeology of the first uncovered roman village at the foots of the Volcano. Walking through the ruins of streets and houses, we will revive a glimpse of what the inhabitant's daily life could have been. We will uncover mosaics, frescoes, jewellery, statues and all the remains that are being excavated for 300 years. An unforgettable journey!
