Arriving in Pompeii, you catch yourself thinking that in the world, almost nothing has changed in 2,000 years. It is an open-air museum with its baths, markets, city hall, commodity exchange, temples, gladiator barracks, theater and amphitheater, wide and comfortable streets, beautifully preserved houses adorned with frescoes and fountains. It seems that people just stepped out of their homes for a few minutes and will return back any moment. This is a city where life is still bustling, the most visited tourist city in the world.
Vesuvius is a sleeping volcano, from which one can expect endless surprises. A volcano that has become the hallmark of one of the most amazing Italian cities, Naples. You will hear about its history, geology, ascend to the very crater, and take photos against the backdrop of the islands: Capri and Ischia, Procida and Ventotene.
