Excursão à cratera do Monte Vesúvio com almoço em um vinhedo saindo de Sorrento

Nat Geo Day Tour: En fördjupad inblick i det antika romerska livet: Oplontis villor och Pompeji

Vi börjar med en kort biltur till foten av Vesuvius och ruinerna av Pompeji, en antik stad som bevarats av vulkanutbrottet. Vandra längs kullerstensgator till Forum, som en gång var navet i det romerska livet. Följ antika stigar till storslagna utrymmen som Faunens hus med sina rika mosaiker. Sitt på teaterns arena och studera basilikans kolossala pelare. Du kommer också att besöka områden med vardagsliv som bad och tavernor. Ditt sista stopp på denna plats blir Casa della Regina Carolina, ett av den antika stadens största hem som ligger i ett elitkvarter nära Forum. Du får inblick i den pågående forskningen som startades av National Geographic Explorer Caitlin Ellis Barret när du upptäcker huset och de dagliga hushållsaktiviteterna för dess välbärgade invånare. Efter en lätt lunch fortsätter resan till hamnen i Torre Annunziata, där du kommer ner under gatunivån till forntida Oplontis. Området och dess två vidsträckta villor finns med på UNESCO:s världsarvslista och har några av de bäst bevarade väggmålningarna från den romerska perioden. Din specialiserade arkeologiska guide kommer att erbjuda historiska, kulturella och arkitektoniska sammanhang när du tar in Oplontis underverk. Här bodde en gång den romerska eliten och du kan beundra fresker och mosaiker i pompejansk stil, målade i djupa azurfärger, apelsiner och soliga guldfärger. Den invecklade användningen av färg och skuggning ger dessa målningar en tredimensionell känsla och ger en verklighetstrogen kvalitet till dessa antika scener.
