Blaze of Fury:Pompeii's Remains and Vesuvius

OVERVIEW

Ancient Pompeii and the Mt. Vesuvius volcano are forever linked in history. It was the violent eruption of this volcano in 79 A.D. that buried Pompeii in volcanic ash and pumice stone, thus suspending it in time for future generations to discover.
 
Your English-speaking driver takes you to visit both locations on this driving/walking tour in a private, air-conditioned vehicle. At Pompeii, you’ll enjoy a personal walking tour with your licensed local guide -- learning of life in an Ancient Roman town and that fateful day’s events. Afterward, you’ll visit the crater of Vesuvius, mainland Europe’s only active volcano.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Pompeii sits in the shadow of Vesuvius, the volcano which sealed its fate. It’s to the explosive and violent eruption in the year 79 A.D., which destroyed Pompeii and nearby Herculaneum, that Vesuvius owes its fame.
