Crowne Plaza - Stabiae Sorrento Coast Hotel

Pompeii is a ruined and partially buried Roman town-city near modern Naples in the Italian region of Campania. Pompeii was destroyed, and completely buried, during a long catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in AD 79.The volcano collapsed higher roof-lines and buried Pompeii under many meters of ash and pumice, and it was lost for nearly 1700 years before its accidental rediscovery in 1748. Since then, its excavation has provided an extraordinarily detailed insight into the life of a city at the height of the Roman Empire. Today, it is both one of the most popular tourist attractions of Italy and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Fascinating and unforgettable excursion: the first part of the trip is the excavations of Pompeii, inaugurated by King Bourbons in the eighteenth century and which until now has hosted more than 2,500,000 visitors, the second part provides a guided tour of the Vesuvius volcano, where you can admire the wild nature and extent of the crater. Finally, there will be a break in a factory of corals: a unique opportunity to closely observe the pride of local production.

The Amalfi Coast, or Costiera Amalfitana in Italian, is a stretch of coastline on the southern side of the Sorrentine Peninsula of Italy (Province of Salerno), extending from Positano in the west to Vietri sul Mare in the east. The towns lying on the Amalfi Coast are Vietri sul Mare, Cetara, Maiori, Minori, Ravello, Scala, Atrani, Amalfi, Conca dei Marini, Furore,Praiano and Positano. Renowned for its rugged terrain, scenic beauty, picturesque towns and diversity, the Amalfi Coast is listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.

Guided visit at the Pompeii Ruins and at the ancient roads and houses that were lived in by the noble Romans before the terrible Vesuvius’ eruption in 79 A.D. Continuing with a guided visit at the localities that are part of our “divine coast”. The first stop is Sorrento, one of the most amazing area in Italy. We continue with a panoramic stop to admire the view from above of the sea village of Positano. The last stop is Amalfi, the antique maritime republic, with a visit at its characteristic historical centre. During the tour we will stop at a Limoncello factory and have a lunch (not included).

Guided tour to one of the most beautiful but also uncanny scenery of Naples: the Vesuvius. Its destructive power has buried the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum in 79 d. C., and was praised by Giacomo Leopardi's “La ginestra”; the trip aims to show the charm that the volcano has on visitors’s soul, from one side it will be possible to admire the crater, on the other side the stunning view of the Bay of Naples from over 1,100 meters high.

A visit to the two Roman villas of Castellammare di Stabia that were brought back to light in 1950. Villa Sant’Arianna and Villa San Marco were built with daring techniques by the Roman architects that inserted them perfectly within the landscape. Continuing ahead to the Baths of Stabia, opened until October 31st, with their 28 sources of mineral water surrounded by a large green area.

The tour takes place at Cantine Podere del Tirone, situated in Trecase, a small town in the Vesuvius national park. Cantine Podere del Tirone boasts a long wine-producing tradition which goes back to the 1930s.  The company produces: Lacryma Christi DOC (red and white), Vesuvio DOC, Taurasi DOCG, Aglianico Campania IGT, Lacryma Christi red DOC which is aged in barrels and Falanghina Campania DOC.
