Pompeii From a Cruise Ship: Is It a Must-Do?
Is Pompeii from a cruise ship a must-do? On our Enchanted Princess Mediterranean cruise, we arrive at Naples cruise port, Italy, and head to the incredible ancient city of Pompeii, with Mount Vesuvius looming in the background. In this video, I’ll take you along as we explore Pompeii from Naples, walking through the remarkably preserved streets, ruins and buildings of one of Italy’s most famous archaeological sites. If you're visiting Naples on a cruise and wondering whether a Pompeii shore excursion is worth doing, this video will give you a good idea of what to expect. We explore the ruins, see some of the highlights of Pompeii and discover just how much there is to see during a cruise port day. Pompeii was buried following the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79, preserving an extraordinary snapshot of Roman life. Today it's one of the most popular places to visit from Naples and a major attraction for passengers cruising the Mediterranean.
