Mount Vesuvius is still active & last erupted in 1944. The plume of
smoke which hung over the cone of the volcano disappeared in 1948 but this is
of little relief to local inhabitants as scientists expect the volcano to erupt
every 30 – 40 years.

official guide who will escort us along the 1.5 km hike to get to the summit & the cone of the volcano.

Founded in the 7th Century B.C, Pompeii is of great interest for
historians. It is said that while Rome gives an insight into the monumental
architecture of the Romans, Pompeii illustrates their everyday life. Pompeii had been a Roman colony since 80BC and prospered with the construction of many large temples, villas and palaces until 63AD, when it was devastated by
an earthquake. The city had been largely rebuilt when Mount Vesuvius erupted in
79AD and buried the whole city under several layers of molten lava and ash.
Approximately two thousand inhabitants were suffocated by the acrid smoke of
the eruption & participants will be able to view many of the survivors’
bodies frozen in the positions in which they died. Our visit to Pompeii will include the Amphitheatre, the army barracks,
several temples, shops & some important paintings that have survived to
this day.
