Nice Piombino
In the Maremma of Grosseto, surrounded by hills, Massa Marittima is a little jewel of southern... more+ Tuscany. Its thousand-year-old history is closely linked to the exploitation of mineral resources. The surrounding landscape, made up of Mediterranean maquis forests, vineyards and olive groves, is a concentrate of natural beauty. Nicknamed the ‘city of museums’, Massa Marittima boasts a unique artistic and historical heritage through its many buildings and museums. Half-day excursion (approx. 3h30).

Piombino Naples
Pompeii is thought to have been founded in the 5th or even 6th century BC. At the time, it was a... more+ large city with a population of 20,000, but an earthquake in 63 AD, followed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, buried the entire city with such suddenness that the inhabitants were unable to take shelter. As the ashes solidified, they protected the site, which is still rich in paintings, mosaics and sculptures. Half-day excursion (approx. 4 hours).
Herculaneum was destroyed in August 79 by a violent lava flow, which on drying became a kind of crust that helped to preserve the site. Almost all the inhabitants of this small aristocratic town were able to escape, unlike the 2,000 or so Pompeians who perished. Half-day excursion (approx. 3h30).
Vesuvius looms dark against the clear Campania sky, where the age of the flows can be seen on the ground; the poor vegetation covers the 18th-century streaks. Continuation to Pompeii for a visit to the site and the magnificent Villa dei Mysteri, whose many rooms are decorated with paintings of a high artistic standard, particularly the triclinium room, which contains the scene that gave the villa its name. Full-day excursion with lunch (approx. 8.00 am).
Discover some of the most authentic places in one of the city's richest contrasts and treasures. Half-day excursion (approx. 3h30).

Lipari Stromboli

Stromboli Catane
Mount Etna is Sicily's main attraction, its landscapes changing from hour to hour according to the... more+ light shining on them. But the most striking contrast is that offered by its snow-covered crater, 7 months a year, standing out against a backdrop of azure. Etna, Europe's largest volcano (3323 m), has an impressive track record, as hardly a year goes by without new eruptive vents changing the face of the land.
Half-day excursion (approx. 4 hours).
