Herculaneum, Pompeii and Paestum Private Day Tour from Rome
Overview
In 62 A.D. a violent earthquake struck the Vesuvius area. Seventeen years later, on August 24, 79 A.D., the sudden eruption of Vesuvius buried Pompeii and Herculaneum with ashes and lapillus. The buried cities were rediscovered in the 16th Century, but it was only in 1748 that the exploration phase began under the King of Naples Charles III of Bourbon. Our guides will bring you this ancient resort towns to life. After a lovely travel along the Tirrenian Coast we will reach Paestum. Here myth and legend coexist. The Temple of Ceres, the Temple of the Neptune, the Amphitheater (a Typical Roman Building), and the National Archeological Museum, which allows the visitors to retrace the Greek, Lucan and Roman History of the city. Here a unique example of Greek painting is kept: The Diver's Tomb.
