If you have never been in the bay of Naples before , I highly reccomend this tour , It’s one of the most complete to cover all the major beauties of this area ;
In only one day you will visit two world’s heritage sites listed by Unesco , Pompeii and the Amalfi coast.
Pompeii Ruins:
It’s an incredible well preserved roman town buried under 20 feet of ashes during the main eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. ; here , every year , about 3.000 000 tourists come to visit The roman shops , The teather , the forum , the baths , the petrified bodies and more.
Or Herculaneum ruins (on request if you prefer an enjoyable walk away from the crowds of Pompeii) :
located in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius, Herculaneum was buried by the same eruption of the Volcano , but in a different way to Pompeii. Volcanic material and gases travelled down the crater and hit the ancient city at high speeds and at a very high temperatures. So Herculaneum was covered by 75 feet of hot mud and volcanic materials that “saeled” and preserved the city.
In conclusion both the excavations of the ancient roman towns offer spectacular ruins , relics and interisting markings left behind, by the poeple who did not survive Mt. Vesuvius’ eruption.
Positano & Amalfi
During the day , We will stop in the main places of interest, the charming little town of Sorrento and the picturesque village of Positano, spending enough time in both, in order to fully enjoy the natural beauties of the coast , known for picturesque seaside towns along the Mediterranean sea and for Thousands of lovely corners where you can take wonderful pictures . This Part of italy is Absolutely the perfect places for stops having to do with sightseeing, shopping, and to just take in the pleasant scenery.
Positano is in a stunningly beautiful panoramic position along one of the most beautiful stretches of coast of the Sorrento peninsula. It is an ancient fishing village which has become one of the most elegant and well known health resorts of the Amalfi Coast .
Amalfi : A picturesque interlacing of alleys and stairways overlooks the sea with all its extraordinary colors reflecting the enchanting landscape of Amalfi, the town whose name blesses the entire coast.
