8 day tour Pompeii, Paestum & Herculaneum
Palermo Bay, home to a striking castle and sparkling waters. On the return to Vlorë, enjoy a traditional
and meet a local guide who will help you uncover the secrets of many of the city’s best sights. These include villas decorated with frescoes, colourful mosaics, Roman baths, an impressive amphitheatre and more. Day 4: Amalfi & Paestum Before you reach historic Paestum today, enjoy the beautiful views of the Amalfi Coast. As you travel along twisting cliff-top roads, admire breathtaking views of steep cliffs plunging into the brilliant blue sea and picture-perfect villages clinging to the hillside. Then, at your journey’s end in the UNESCO-listed archaeological site of Paestum, you’ll discover three magnificent Doric temples, part of what was once an ancient Greek city. Day 5: Oplontis & Herculaneum You have another fascinating day of exploration ahead. Head to the Roman fishing town of Herculaneum, which was also buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Hidden for centuries under 16 metres of volcanic debris, it is better preserved than Pompeii and some quite unbelievable items such as wooden structures and furniture, have been found almost completely intact. Next, head to the nearby Villa Poppaea at Oplontis. Once a grand, residential villa, it was so well preserved by the volcano’s ash that the Roman art inside almost looks freshly painted. Day 6: Vico Equense Enjoy a day at leisure. You could relax with a book by the hotel’s pool, explore Vico Equense at your own pace or perhaps venture out to a nearby beach. Day 7: Vico Equense End your holiday with some time to yourself. You could relax in the sun or explore the area surrounding your hotel. The elegant town of Sorrento, with its enticing cafés and restaurants, is easy to reach by train. Day 8: Naples - UK Transfer to the airport for your return flight to the UK.
