Full day tour to the Amalfi Coast and Pompeii Ruins from Naples
A day among uncontaminated landscapes, fresh air, sea breeze, culture and art. Don't miss the chance to plunge into 2 World Heritage sites and discover the world renowned Amalfi Coast and Pompeii Ruins!
<p>Whether you realize it or not, you’ve probably already seen the <strong>Amalfi coast</strong>. Its pristine and <strong>dramatic landscape</strong> has made it a popular setting for films, TV programmes and adverts. Nothing, however, will prepare you for seeing it in real life. You’ll understand immediately why UNESCO designated the Amalfi coast a World Heritage Site as we drive through almost 50 miles of<strong> winding coastal roads</strong> with the sea on one side and the <strong>majestic Lattari mountains</strong> on the other. Sit back in the comfort of a <strong>high-quality vehicle</strong> with an <strong>experienced driver</strong> and a <strong>knowledgeable guide </strong>and experience the <strong>breathtaking views</strong> lying before your eyes. The second part of the day is devoted to the discovery of another UNESCO World Heritage Site, the <strong>remains of Pompeii</strong>. The <strong>eruption of Mount Vesuvius</strong> in 79 AD killed most of the town’s inhabitants, but it did relatively little damage to Pompeii itself. The resulting <strong>blanket of ash</strong> kept the remains in perfect condition until they were uncovered again in the 18th century. Now visitors can literally walk around the town just like in Roman times – only with the benefit of a helpful <strong>archeological guide</strong> to tell you about the site and answer any questions. Plunge into the ancient Roman city of <strong>Pompeii</strong> frozen by the 79 A.D. <strong>Vulcano’s eruption</strong> visiting the highlights of the <strong>thermal baths, the large theater, the Basilica and the Macellum and the famous House of Faun.</strong> Our guide will help you in learning many interesting clues during your visit explaining the most interesting places of this ancient commercial city. </p>

Among vines and olive trees. Discovering the excellent products of the Euganean Hills.
<p>In the heart of Veneto, discover the excellence of olive growing and wine production in the Euganean Hills. Vineyards and olive groves have long been cultivated in our area, and from these products true delicacies are produced: the wine and oil of the Euganean Hills.</p><p>Olive oil is certainly a source of pride for this area: we will visit an oil mill, where the producers will show us the art of olive oil production, and guide us through a tasting of the final product. We have then chosen for you, one of the best wineries in this area, where after a visit to the cellar, you will taste the typical wines of the Euganean Hills. Here, the particular volcanic origin of the soil and the favourable climate allow the cultivation of a variety of vines: Serprino, a biotype of the Glera vine, is the 'volcanic' version of Prosecco, but Pinot bianco, Garganega and Chardonnay are also among the most popular whites, not forgetting the presence of Manzoni bianco. The reds include the Bordeaux varieties Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Carmènere. Between a walk through the vineyards, a visit to the barrel cellar and several wine tastings paired with typical local products, we will listen to the knowledgeable wine growers who will tell us all about the expressions of their best wines.<br></p>
