This tour consists in a marvelous walk in company of a competent archaeologist and  professional guide around of the ancient Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum buried from the ashes of the volcano Vesuvius in 79 a. D. Relax in a comfortable trasportation in a private Minivan. A walk in Pompeii is a very strong experience; you'll have the feeling of wandering in a town that is still alive. The guide will tell you about the history of the town and how the Romans lived, showing you all the most important public buildings and private houses. While Pompeii had been covered in five meters of ash, an avalanche of mud 20 meters thick buried Herculaneum, which is smaller but better preserved then Pompeii; there It is still possible to see second stories, carbonized wooden objects, intact paintings and mosaics. With our guide's explanation the city will come to life. The itinerary can be subjected to slight variations due to the closure of some locations or due to overcrowding.

I chose this tour for several reasons. Firstly it included Herculaneum as well as Pompeii. Secondly it included transport from the meeting point (which was conveniently near my hotel) to Pompeii, then to Herculaneum and back to where we met. It was also a 9.20am start and as I only arrived in Naples late the night before this was a godsend. The driver (Giovanni) was excellent despite his limited English. He was a very safe and reliable driver as well as being friendly and helpful. Our guide (Lucca) was super. He gave very good introductions to each place about what happened at that fateful time in AD79. He showed us the highlights of each site and made it entertaining and interesting, he clearly has a passion for the subject. I would wholeheartedly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to visit both these sites and wants it to be as easy and convenient as you can get. Thanks for a wonderful trip
