What people say

Valentina Vanegas
"The Pompeii Ruins offer a fascinating window into life in ancient Rome, frozen in time by the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. Spend your morning wandering through the well-preserved streets of this once-thriving city, where you’ll find ancient houses, shops, baths, and even an amphitheater. Don’t miss the beautifully detailed frescoes in the Villa of the Mysteries or the poignant plaster casts of the victims, preserved in their final moments. Pompeii's expansive ruins allow you to vividly imagine daily life in the Roman Empire, making this one of the most important archaeological sites in the world."

"Pompeii is a vast archaeological site in southern Italy’s Campania region, near the coast of the Bay of Naples. Once a thriving and sophisticated Roman city, Pompeii was buried under meters of ash and pumice after the catastrophic eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 A.D. The preserved site features excavated ruins of streets and houses that visitors can freely explore."

This was the blueprint for our Honeymoon, but this trip can be used for any couple looking for a romantic getaway to Italy. We begin in Venice before traveling to Florence, 3 Tuscany Cities and Wineries, and ending this dream getaway in Positano on the picturesque Amalfi Coast. Each day has been thoughtfully planned to give you the ultimate vacation. Pro Tip: We travelled June/July, but you can opt for May/June or September/October for lower prices and less crowds while still enjoying nice weather. They will also harvest the grapes and olives around October. If traveling off-season, please note some recommendations may be closed for the season.
