Pompeii Herculaneum And Oplonti Private Day Tour From Rome

Meet our English speaking driver at 7.30am at your hotel lobby in Rome and start your unforgettable day! This tour is a full immersion in Roman life. Really a great experience, in fact this is the best tour for the archeology lovers! As you will see, despite the fact that they belong to the same historical period, the two archaeological sites do show many differences in the life style and the structure of the city itself.  You will get a full immersion into the Roman lifestyle. Your local and top rated guide will show you all the aspects of the political, social and religious life of Pompeii and Herculaneum.

This jewel near Naples, in Campania, which lets you travel back in time, has long held the record as the most visited place in the world. Thanks to the site’s perfect state of preservation, we know in detail what life was like in Pompeii and Herculaneum before the destruction caused by the eruption of Vesuvius. The archaeological area of Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Oplonti is among the 58 Italian UNESCO sites on the World Heritage List. It never ceases to amaze, giving you the opportunity to explore the extent of the commercial city of Pompeii, the fewer but better-preserved remains of the ancient town of Herculaneum, and the frescoes of the Villa Oplontis in Torre Annunziata, which portray the opulent lifestyle of the wealthy classes at the beginning of the Roman Empire. Despite the earthquake in 62 AD, most of the public buildings, baths, theatres, and shops have been reconstructed, but most notable of all are the Roman villas, a popular holiday destination.

In 62 A.D. a violent earthquake struck the Vesuvius area. Seventeen years later, on August 24, 79 A.D., the sudden eruption of Vesuvius buried Pompeii and Herculaneum with ashes and lapillus. The buried city was rediscovered in the 16th Century, but it was only in 1748 that the exploration phase began, under the King of Naples Charles III of Bourbon. Our guide will bring this ancient resort towns to life.

Probably the world’s most famous archaeological site, Pompeii needs little introduction. The prosperous market town was destroyed but also perfectly preserved by an eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD, and since its rediscovery and excavation it has captured the imagination of millions. Our guide will bring this ancient resort town to life and ensure that you get to explore all of its most important treasures. Herculaneum is smaller than Pompeii but was coated in a thick layer of pyroclastic material during the eruption which preserved the ancient city much better. In addition to preserved buildings, skeletons and interior decorations, wooden objects like beds, doors, and roofs have were protected from decay. Herculaneum was a wealthier city than Pompeii, so the glimpse into ancient life is even more luxurious and impressive.
