9AM You will be collected from your hotel in Naples by your elegant chauffeur and luxury Mercedes, and you will head for a volcanic vineyard! Visit one of the most prestigious wineries in the region like De Falco, taking in a volcanic vineyard walk and of course a tasting of the winery’s best wines. Carry on to a stellar five course lunch, all paired with wonderful wines made with local grapes such as the fresh and aromatic white Falanghina and the rich, red Aglianico.
After your elegant lunch, you will enjoy a digestive walk amid the excavations at Pompeii. In the year A.D. 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted and Pompeii was buried under six meters of ash and rock (the equivalent of a two story building), and it lay beneath the hardened earth for centuries undiscovered. In 1748, under the Bourbon king Charles III (also king of Spain), the first excavation was carried out. This king also built the beautiful archaeological museum in Naples to house the treasures. You will have your own private art guide to show you the highlights and make the life of the Ancient Romans come alive.
In the early evening, you’ll be driven back to your hotel in Naples where you will be dropped off, but not before receiving a special wine gift.
“This concludes your thoroughly enjoyable day- a mix of food, wine and Ancient Rome.”
