Begin your journey at the ancient city of Pompeii, where you'll wander through well-preserved streets, homes, and temples, all frozen in time by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Next, visit Herculaneum, another Roman town that met a similar fate, offering a unique glimpse into daily life during the Roman Empire. Conclude your adventure with a hike up Mount Vesuvius itself.
