Poseidonia was founded by the Greeks at the end of the 7th century BC. The name was related to the Greek god Poseidon, protector of the sea.
This archaeological area is now one of the best preserved cities from the times of Greek colonization.
We will go to discover the evolution of this ancient city from the Greeks to the Romans through the ruins of temples dedicated to Athena, Hera, Apollo and Zeus.
In Paestum there is also an incredible National Museum that show us some of the most important artifacts of Greek and Roman times, where is possible to see the painted Tomb of the Diver, a masterpiece of 2500 years ago.
Poseidonia/Paestum is a wonderfull cultural heritage protected by the UNESCO.
***The first and the third monday of every month the National Museum is closed***

Hier zie je Magna Grecia op haar best. We hadden dan ook een uitzonderlijke intelligente gids, Roberto, een zeer begaafde en welbespraakte archeoloog.

This has been one the better guided tours. Our guide, Lucia, is very knowledgeable, polite, and engaging. She made the difference for our visit to the Paestum site and museum. She is an excellent communicator with her diction and knowledge of English.

Our guide was exceptional! She was educational, clear, and kind. She made sure to engage everyone and also made sure to do the explanations in the shade. She also made sure we saw the highlights in the museum.
