Begin with a short drive to the foothills of Mt. Vesuvius and the ruins of Pompeii, an ancient city preserved by volcanic eruption. Wander down cobblestone streets to the Forum, once the hub of Roman life. Follow ancient paths to impressive villas and grand spaces like the House of the Faun with its rich mosaics. Sit in the arena of the theater and study the colossal columns of the Basilica. You'll also visit areas of everyday life like the baths and taverns. You will see the exterior of the opulent Casa della Regina Carolina, one of the ancient city's largest villas located in an elite neighborhood near the Forum. Learn insights into the ongoing research started by National Geographic Explorer Caitlin Ellis Barret as you hear about the villa and the daily domestic activities of its wealthy inhabitants. After a light lunch, continue your journey to the port of Torre Annunziata, where you'll descend below street level to ancient Oplontis. As a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site, the area and its two sprawling villas boast some of the best-preserved wall paintings of the Roman period. Your archeologist guide will offer historical, cultural and architectural context as you take in Oplontis' wonders. Once inhabited by the Roman elite, marvel at Pompeiian-style frescoes and mosaics, finished with deep azures, oranges, and sunny golds. The intricate use of colour and shading gives these paintings a three-dimensional feel, adding a lifelike quality to these ancient scenes.

Sites and Bites: palaces and pizza fritta in Naples

Step into the heart of Naples and get ready for a city brimming with life, colour, and flavour. This walking tour blends deep-rooted history with flavour-packed street food, giving you a true taste of Neapolitan culture. You'll begin your tour in the historic centre, strolling past the Royal Palace and the church of San Francesco di Paola in Piazza del Plebiscito. From there, you'll wander through the elegant Galleria Umberto I, and catch a glimpse of Europe's oldest opera house, before diving into the buzz of the Pignasecca street market.Next, we'll head down Spaccanapoli – the street that slices Naples in two. As you stroll past the timeworn churches and crumbling palaces, you'll get to sample some Neapolitan classics – cuoppo di frittura, a paper cone full of fried bites, and pizza fritta, pizza dough that's deep-fried instead of baked. It's crispy on the outside, soft and chewy inside, and typically filled with tasty ingredients before being sealed and fried like a calzone.Then, you'll tuck into some sweet treats – sfogliatelle and babà, two classic Neapolitan pastries that are impossible to resist. You'll also stop off at Via Toledo Metro station, home to colourful mosaics and murals. It's part of the city's 'Art Stations' initiative, where international artists and architects have transformed metro stations into immersive art spaces.
