Introduction:

Leaving Naples we will reach Pompeii.

With its excavated area, extending for approximately 44 ha, and the preservation state of its buildings, due to the particular burial (under a blanket of 6 meter of ash and rock) caused by the eruption of the Vesuvius in 79 AD, Pompeii can be considered the only archaelogical site which gives the real image of roman city. And the image is similar to cities, not preserved, of the same period. Despite wars waged on its soils, despite assaults by earthquakes and a volcano nineteen centuries ago, Pompeii is still vibrant and accessible. Wander from mosaic to monument, temple to theatre, envision life in this legendary city.

Leaving Pompeii in a southerly direction we will reach Sorrento.

Sorrento is one of the best known resorts in Italy. It is perched on a dramatic line of steeply rising cliffs, overlooking the Bay of Naples, on a stretch of coastline of great beauty, on the northern slope of the Sorrentine Peninsula.

The town is surrounded by orange and lemon groves and lush thickly wooded hills where vines and olives are grown. A deep gorge runs down to the port on the sea. The town has pretty pastel-coloured houses and several quaint small squares.
