You cannot miss the chance to join a full day excursion to discover the archaeological sites of Pompeii & Herculaneum. Pompeii reses on a plateau of Vesuvian lava, overlooking the Sarno river valley. The city was destroyed by the eruption of the Volcano Vesuvius in 79 AD, but the rests of the Roman civilization were rediscovered in the 16th century and the exploration begun in 1748 under the kingdom of Charles III of Burbon.
