Pompei Apartment Tour in Naples, Italy Video Transcript:
Good morning guys. This is going to be our last apartment tour here on our trip in Europe because this is our last apartment we're staying in. And we've been staying in Pompei, Italy for a week. And we've done so many cool things using this as our base. But before I talk about that let's give you a tour of the actual apartment.
So here this is the door. If you take a quick peak outside you can see that we're staying in a house and there is a little table over here. Yeah, this is going to be a fast tour because we have a train to catch so luggage already out. Yeah, we're all set to go. We're late as per usual. So over here we had a cool table which we used for both working and eating. Um, up here some nice artwork. Very Italian. Yeah, and we visited basically the first week of December and so it was cold so we were making really good use of that heater over there.
Alright, on to the couch. So we just hung out and watched Netflix here. I love this panorama. Tada. Yeah, it is kind of a panoramic photo of Naples. Yeah, of Naples and you have the Bay of Naples and then off in the distance you have Mount Vesuvius. The imposing Mount Vesuvius. We went up there. That was a true highlight of our stay here.
Okay, let's quickly go into the kitchen. So into the kitchen here. This is yeah it was nicely fully stocked. We made full use of this. We were making our own pastas.
Okay so moving on so yeah this was basically a living area and kitchen and then in here we had uh a fairly spacious bathroom in terms of surface area. But maybe the world's smallest shower.
Okay this is the bedroom. Nice big bed. Again more artwork. And the most important thing in the bedroom was this. Heat. The heater. We would turn that on before we go to bed and sometimes we'd have it on at night while we were sleeping. Then over here we had a wardrobe and lots of extra blankets as well for winter.
Anyways, I'm going to sit down on the couch and tell you why I think Pompeii is kind of like the perfect place to base yourself when you're in this region of Italy.
So first before I forget let's talk about the price. So we got this place for $43 dollars (US) a night. Which I thought was an absolute steal with a weekly discount. It is offseason. We're basically in a house. We have a gate. It just felt very secure. It was quiet here. Really good location and keep in mind when we stayed for instance in Matera we were paying $70 dollars a night. Now the actual city of Pompei is really nice. It has a really nice um like downtown area. Some great restaurants that we loved. It is clean, it feels safe here. It just was a really cool place to be based because we were kind of literally at the halfway point between all of these things that we were doing while we were here. Yeah, so we took a lot of day trips. We ended up going to Sorrento in the south, then we had Herculaneum and Vesuvius which was slightly north. Yep. Then we also did Naples.
There is just so much to do in this area. LIke aside from what we did there was also the Isle of Capri which we didn't have time to do.
That is basically it from us from Pompeii, Italy. We've got a train to catch so we're going to say tata for now and we'll see you guys on the travel vlog which is actually taking us back to Canada. See you guys soon. Bye. Ciao.

Visiting the Ruins of Pompeii, Italy Travel Guide Transcript:
While many travellers visit Pompeii on a day trip, we chose to base ourselves here for a few days. The main draw, of course, were the ruins of Pompeii, an ancient Roman city that was buried under ash and pumice when Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. We spent half a day walking through the world's largest excavation and archaeological site, and what follows it our mini travel guide.
Our first stop inside the complex was the Amphitheatre of Pompeii. Built around 70 BC, this is the oldest surviving Roman amphitheatre to have been built of stone; for comparison the Colosseum in Rome wouldn’t come into existence for another century. We toured the grounds and also checked out the music exhibit on site, because it turns out a lot of bands have played here over the years!
After visiting the amphitheatre which is on the very east end, we started making our way into the city. The streets were cobbled and all along there were rows of houses and villas, many of them with impressive frescoes that tell the tale of a wealthy city with lavish homes.
One of the reasons Pompeii is so well preserved is because it was buried quickly by volcanic ash and pumice, plus the lack of air and moisture also allowed for the buried artifacts to be extremely well preserved. Stepping into the homes is like stepping into the past; you can still see the elaborate mosaic floors and vibrant frescoes frozen in time.
Continuing our walk through Pompeii, we eventually reached the Forum. This square would have been the centre of life for locals with temples, municipal buildings, and markets. The statue of the centaur, half-man half-horse, is a focal point, as is the view of Mount Vesuvius looking down on the ruins.
To finish off our visit of Pompeii, we walked along the southern edge of the ruined city where we saw the casts of the victims of Vesuvius. When archaeological teams began excavating Pompeii, they noticed there were large voids in the compacted ash whenever they were digging around bones. By pouring plaster into the spaces, they were able to capture the final poses of the residents’ last moments in the city.
One of the best discoveries of our time in Pompeii was Pizzeria Alleria, we stumbled here soaking wet on our first night in the city and we just couldn’t stay away after that. Here’s what the fuss is all about.
After that, we ended up getting a second Margherita pizza - the first one was just too tasty! - and then we also ordered the Nutella cheesecake, which was just as decadent as it looks.
We started our do-it-yourself tour of modern Pompei at Piazza Bartolo Longo, a beautiful plaza lined with palm trees right in the heart of the city. Standing in the square, it’s impossible to miss the Shrine of the Virgin of the Rosary of Pompei, where once you step you are greeted with painted domes and golden ceilings. And then from there, we went to the top of the bell tower for a 360-degree views of the city.

This is what you might see during a one-day (7-hour) tour of Pompeii's Roman ruins in Italy. Note - The city is huge. You won't see everything in a day and some areas are usually closed for conservation.
Be sure to also check out part 2 - the Herculaneum tour (7m56s):
My video of what to see in Sorrento is here (6m16s):
And here's my short film about a day on Capri (3m34s):
This is my Positano Day Trip film (3m10s):
About this Pompeii mini-documentary:
Pompeii was an ancient Roman city near Naples, in Italy. It was mostly destroyed and buried under 4 to 6 meters of volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Today it’s some distance inland, but in ancient times was nearer to the coast. Pompeii is about 10 km away from Mount Vesuvius and covered a total of about 66 hectares.
About two thirds of the city has been uncovered.
The film features the ancient theatres and amphitheatre, streets and homes, bars and baths of ancient Pompeii.
The film ends at the Garden of the Fugitives, where there are casts of victims who died while attempting to flee and were then buried by volcanic ash and pumice.

Mount Vesuvius and Herculaneum Day Trip in Naples, Italy Travel Guide Video Transcript:
The journey from Pompeii to Herculaneum is a scenic one with Mount Vesuvius to one side and the Bay of Naples to the other. It only took us 20 minutes to get there by train, so if you’re looking for a day trip, it doesn’t get much easier than this one. Just maybe don’t get off in the outskirts of town like we did, but more on that later.
Vesuvio's Express is a shuttle service that runs to the top of the volcano, so if you’re expecting a guided tour filled with lots of interesting facts, this isn’t it.
That being said, we were perfectly happy to tour the site on our own, and we couldn’t beat the price at 20 Euros per person.
The only problem we encountered was that the roads were completely iced over the further we went up the mountain, and at one point the bus just had to give up and let all the passengers off to go the rest of the way on foot.
Things got a little easier once we swapped icy paved roads for a dirt trail, though we also had snow to contend with, but we eventually reached the top. I would say one of the coolest things about hiking up to Mount Vesuvius was being able to see that it’s a volcano within a volcano, and while there was no bubbling lava visible to the eye, we could see steam rising from several vents.
Our next stop after lunch were the ruins of Herculaneum, an ancient Roman town that was destroyed by Mount Vesuvius. While Pompeii was covered in ash, Herculaneum was hit by the pyroclastic flow that followed the explosion of 79 AD, which also led to its preservation.
What at first glance appears to be a moat, is Herculaneum’s ancient shoreline. Here we were met with the aftermath of the explosion: a row of old boat houses, each of them filled with the skeleton remains of those who did not escape during the first day of the eruption.

Italy, Naples: How to Travel from Naples to Pompeii by Train POV
Pompeii was an ancient Roman town-city near modern Naples, in the Campania region of Italy, in the territory of the comune of Pompei. Pompeii, along with Herculaneum and many villas in the surrounding area, was mostly destroyed and buried under 4 to 6 m (13 to 20 ft) of volcanic ash and pumice in the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.
Researchers believe that the town was founded in the seventh or sixth century BC by the Osci or Oscans. It came under the domination of Rome in the 4th century BC, and was conquered and became a Roman colony in 80 BC after it joined an unsuccessful rebellion against the Roman Republic. By the time of its destruction, 160 years later, its population was estimated at 11,000 people, and the city had a complex water system, an amphitheatre, gymnasium, and a port.
The eruption destroyed the city, killing its inhabitants and burying it under tons of ash. Evidence for the destruction originally came from a surviving letter by Pliny the Younger, who saw the eruption from a distance and described the death of his uncle Pliny the Elder, an admiral of the Roman fleet, who tried to rescue citizens. The site was lost for about 1,500 years until its initial rediscovery in 1599 and broader rediscovery almost 150 years later by Spanish engineer Rocque Joaquin de Alcubierre in 1748.[1] The objects that lay beneath the city have been preserved for more than a millennium because of the lack of air and moisture. These artefacts provide an extraordinarily detailed insight into the life of a city during the Pax Romana. During the excavation, plaster was used to fill in the voids in the ash layers that once held human bodies. This allowed archaeologists to see the exact position the person was in when he or she died.
Pompeii has been a tourist destination for over 250 years. Today it has UNESCO World Heritage Site status and is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Italy, with approximately 2.5 million visitors every year.[2]

Pompeii + Mount Vesuvius Day Trip ITALY
Took a day trip from Rome to Pompeii and back via a company I booked through Viator.com
The tour pickup was 7:30am at Piaza de Popolo, very easy to find the tour operators. Our guide was Stephanie, she was amazing. We had a local guide for the Pompeii site.
The total cost was about $155, included lunch at a nice restaurant and an AC minibus. Our group was about 16 people.
If you can make the journey there including the hike up Mount Vesuvius. It was a 13 hour day but well worth it.

Travel video about destination Pompeii in Italy.
On August 24th in 79 A.D. a massive volcanic eruption destroyed the Roman city of Pompeii when millions of tons of lava instantly petrified the bodies of 2000 of its inhabitants. Pompeii is the incarnation of a civilization that was destroyed by this natural disaster. Some of its underground corridors were accidentally discovered in 1594 but serious scientific excavation did not begin until the 18th century. Even today, more than one third of the city remains concealed beneath volcanic rock. Because of the airtight conditions beneath the lava, Pompeii is the most well preserved ancient city in the world with perfectly preserved streets and buildings that provide detailed information of the former living conditions, trade, commerce and art of Roman times. The lively city attempted to compete with Rome and offered its visitors and guests abundant luxury and diverse entertainments and the interiors of the buildings with their magnificent reliefs indicate the wealth and high living standards of Pompeii's elite.
