I’ll pick up at 8.30 am at your accommodation and we’ll reach Pompeii or Herculaneum, the famous Roman towns buried under the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Once at the ruins I will introduce you to your private Official Guide (licensed by the regional office of tourism) who will take you for a couple of hours through the ruins.
Pompeii is a bit like a labyrinth and with the guide, you can go back in time to touch the daily life of a typical 2000 year old Roman city without getting lost, and someone answering all your questions. He/she will explain how the houses had an essential decor and windowless design and breakfast was made with milk, honey and focaccia.
The habitants of Pompeii used loose comfortable clothes, wearing wide tunics and a toga wrapped around their bodies. The women dressed their hair with special tools and beautiful jewels matching their outfits. Pompeii was the political spot, the place for trade and for sure a place to have fun. The daily life included restaurants, Water Spas to relax, and brothels. Brothels had “Love’s Menu” frescoed on the walls to facilitate the guests who visited Pompeii and didn’t speak the same language to choose their pleasure.
At the end of your private Pompeii or Herculaneum Tour we’ll reach the Oil Factory in Sant’Agnello (Sorrento) where you will discover the secrets of the Sorrento Olive Oil Industry , or the Pastificio Il Ducato di Amalfi in Gragnano, universally recognized as a “cradle of macaroni” for your Pasta Factory tour and lunch. Another option is the Wine Tour, you can do it at Le Lune del Vesuvio next to Pompeii, a great place where you can enjoy an excellent wine watching your kids riding a horse, play in a grass or harvesting the grapes, or at Cantina del Vesuvio located at the foot of Mont Vesuvius where in a magic atmosphere you will indulge in lunch, visit the vineyards and enjoy your wine tasting.
I have multiple recommendations to offer you for food and wine tours. If you prefer, you could only visit Pompeii or Herculaneum and Vesuvius. Send me a note to provide you with more details, quotes and how to make a reservation.

After a couple of hours, we will be at the Vannulo Cheese Factory where you’ll take a private tour to learn about the production, the factory, the leather shop and met the Buffaloes. This tour includes tasting the best mozzarella cheese …when you take your first bite the unconscious becomes conscious and you can’t help wondering; how is it possible to make a mozzarella like this?
Probably the unique taste is the result of how exclusively treated the 600 buffaloes are on 200 hectares of turf, eating only forage from organic crops, sleeping on comfortable streamed mattresses and refreshed with streamed showers while listening to Mozart.
They also produce yogurt. Well, I’m warning you, once you taste it, going back to the usual yogurt will be a problem.
After few minutes tasting this wonderful experience, we’ll arrive to the Archaeological site of Paestum, one of the most important settlements in Magna Grecia, where I’ll introduce you to your Official private guide.
Paestum is a perfect example, among the most intact of how Italy is as a country rich in archaeological sites that for centuries has attracted visitors from all over the world. Your guide will show you the Temple of Ceres with its light and elegant structure, the Basilica, the oldest building dedicated to the goddess Era. Near the Basilica you will visit the Temple of Neptune, the most majestic and best preserved of these ruins.
You will find yourself surrounded by the remains of an ancient amphitheater, traces of numerous buildings and the mighty city walls. The archaeological visit will be completed with the National Museum of Paestum which documents the urban life and social transformations of the city.

It will be exciting to immortalize them when they finally find a truffle and their delicate work to extract it from the subsoil, without damaging it.
The walk will last about 3 hours and it will be exciting, entering the wood, to fell the smell of the nature and the silence interrupted by the noise of the trees, the history and the anecdotes about the truffle. It doesn’t matter if you find it, just being here, in contact with Mother Nature is worth a treasure.
Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes and take a camera with you for splendid photos of the nature that will surround you and also of the dogs as they smell the earth in search of truffles hidden under the shrubs.
After your hunt, we will drive to a small nearby town, Candida: the name derives from the white rocks on which the oldest part of the town is located.
