    What you'll see and do

    1. Flavian Amphitheater

      Enter one of the most impressive amphitheaters of the Roman Empire, second in size only to the Colosseum and the Capua amphitheater. The Flavian Amphitheatre of Pozzuoli, built in the first century AD.C., will welcome you with his silent majesty, telling you stories of shows, gladiators, mystery cults and imperial power. We will descend into the impressive perfectly preserved dungeons, where even today you can observe the mechanisms that raised the beasts in the arena and the paths of the fighters before their entry on stage. An exciting journey through light, shadow and volcanic stone. The Guide will take you through the steps, arena, galleries and hidden environments, explaining the central role Puteoli had in the economy and culture of ancient Rome.

    2. Rione Terra

      An underground journey into the soul of the ancient city Discover the millenary heart of Pozzuoli through a fascinating journey in the Rione Terra, the ancient acropolis of the city, suspended between Roman history, early Christianity and urban rebirth. Accompanied DA an expert Guide, you will enter the basement of a village that houses, under the foundations of seventeenth-century palaces, a real underground Roman city: paved streets, tabernae, domus and perfectly preserved spas. An exciting itinerary that tells over two thousand years of history in a few meters of depth. In addition to the archaeological route, you will also admire the imposing Cathedral of St. Proculus, housed inside the Temple of Augustus, where pagan and Christian sacredness blend into one, extraordinary architecture.

    3. Tempio Di Serapide

      The Roman Point of Sale that defies time and volcanoes In the beating heart of Pozzuoli stands one of the most iconic monuments of Roman archaeology: the so-called Temple of Serapis, actually a grandiose macellum (Public Point of Sale) of the ancient Puteoli, the most important port city of the Empire after Ostia. The site stands out not only for its architectural grandeur but also for the unique role it played in discovering the Superstar of bradyseism: the three famous marble columns, visibly corroded DA marine molluscs, testify to the continuous vertical movements of the soil in the Phlegrean area over the centuries. Accompanied DA an expert Guide, you will visit this incredible commercial space dating back to the 1st–2nd century AD.C., with its central courtyard, porticos, shops, and the small temple dedicated to Serapis, an oriental deity introduced to Rome during Hellenism.

For those who want to learn more, it will be possible to visit the Temple of Serapis, make a stop in the alleys of the Rione Terra or enjoy a typical lunch in one of the many trattorias with Phlegrean cuisine, based on fresh fish and local wines.

    What should I bring or wear?

    When is the best time to visit Sorrento?

    +

    How many days do you need in Sorrento?

    +
