Pompeii Herculaneum & Vesuvius Private Tours

Private Shore Excursion on the three main sites that represent the eruption of the volcano Vesuvius.
A private Day Tour of Pompeii, Herculaneum and Vesuvius for visitors who are interested in Roman history or about the geology of the area, is recommended. We will take you with our limousines to the ruins, where you can experience and see the magnitude of the eruption in 79 BC and all the people who lay buried for many centuries. It’s staggering but is only one part of the story. Pompeii is the much larger and more famous of the two archaeological sites. Although the buildings are not as well preserved as at Herculaneum, Pompeii offers the visitor a wider view of Roman life, with shops, houses, streets, amphitheatres, the Forum, baths and a gladiator arena. Just down the road from Italy’s most-visited tourist attraction are the little-known Herculaneum is much smaller but better preserved than Pompeii. Vesuvius, exactly from any of those two places you can see the sleeping giant which has erupted last time in 1944. Naples the culture contained in this city simply stuns. There is so much to visit, what are you waiting?

At Herculaneum, unlike Pompeii, where the eruption destroyed roofs and attics, a large part of the buildings remain several stories high: the House of Argus still has its wooden balcony.

EACH DRIVER WAS WELL INFORMED AND EXTREMELY ACCOMODATING . OUR FIRST DRIVER WAS FRANCO IN FIRENZE AND HE WAS SUCH A NICE MAN WHO WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO SHOW US A GREAT TIME, ALESSANDRO IN ROME WAS ALSO VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND FRIENDLY AND TOOK US TO A VERY WONDERFUL LITTLE HOMESTYLE RESTAURANT FOR PRANZO NEAR THE COLLOSEUM WHERE WE WERE SERVED A MEAL SUITED FOR KINGS STARTING WITH APPETIZERS AND ON TO A DELICIOUS PASTA AND SO MUCH MORE. OUR VISIT TO THE AMALFI COAST WAS MADE MEMORABLE BY OUR FRIENDLY, THOUGHTFUL DRIVER MARIO. MY KIDS AND HUSBAND AND MYSELF FELT AS IF WE HAD KNOWN HIM FOR YEARS. HE WAS SO GRACIOUS THAT WHEN THE DAY ENDED WE FELT AS IF WE WERE LEAVING A GREAT FRIEND BEHIND. OUR FINAL STOP WITH MARIO WAS TO A BAKERY IN NAPLES WHERE HE PROCEDED TO TREAT US TO SFOGLIATELLE NAPOLITANE, WHICH WERE "DELIZIOSI". MY LOVE OF ITALY WAS ONLY MAGNIFIED GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRAVEL WITH YOUR DRIVERS EXPERTISE AND SEE SIGHTS THAT WE WOULD NOT HAVE SEEN OTHERWISE. YOU WERE SO HELPFUL JOSEPHINE THAT I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND YOU TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS AND FAMIY MEMBERS. WE LOOK FORWARD TO ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH YOU AGAIN SOON.

I can't begin to describe how wonderful Italy Limousine's staff made our stay on the Amalfi coast. Besides the expert navigation of those tricky coastal curves, Rino, our driver, was well-versed in the coast's history and gave us great tips on where to dine and visit. Josephine was a life saver when it came to organizing our itinerary and transfers. Mille grazie.
