Description

Accompanied by an archeological guide stroll through the cobbled streets built two thousand years ago, see the shops, temples, theaters and luxurious villas of the patricians and rich merchants that made their fortune in the prosperous city, leaving incredible evidences of civilization, architecture and art.

The ancient Roman town was buried by the ashes of the eruption of the Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. Guests can visit the Stabian Baths, the Forum, the area of theaters, the House of the Faun, the House of the Tragic Poet and the brothel.
