Pompeii and Herculaneum day trip from Naples
Description
Depart Naples on board your coach to Pompeii which was buried under a blanket of ash from the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79. and was not unearthed until the 18th century. Upon entering the Pompeii Archaeological park, you will come across Roman ruins and learn the fascinating history of the ancient city. You will see the excavations of the Teatro Grande, which once held up to 5,000 spectators, and the Forum. You will see the coral workshops and cameo factory to learn more about the jewelry making process. Afterwards, we will reach the eighteenth-century restaurant "Vesuvio" for a delicious Italian lunch. Journey close to the coastal city of Herculaneum, home to the ruins of another city affected during the infamous eruption. Although Pompeii is better known, Herculaneum is home to a wealth of archaeological treasures. Enter and explore the archaeological park at your leisure, where you will admire the ancient monuments, preserved mosaics and nearly 2,000-year-old fossils.

No guide arrived and no contact from Viator. Had an email the night before to confirm trip. Very, very disappointed with this. Had to contact them direct. No apologies were made and told to contact the main company. Very poor service. All future tours have been cancelled
Dear Customer, we are very sorry for the bad experience, but as we explained on the phone, when we called you, the reservation was canceled by mistake, due to a temporary problem with the tour management platform that we use in the office. I invite you to read all the other reviews, and you can see that all the customers are happy with our services. We offered you to move the tour to another day, but you could not do it. We hope to see you again in Naples. Kind Regards Campania Visits and Tours
History and exceptional information provided by the guides. Details made clear and pointed out. Humour as part of the narrative was welcomed. Great places to visit and guide for Pompeii was great.
