Relaxing day in Pompei

Before heading back home we enjoyed a relaxing morning at our luxury suite at FOUR Pompei. We went on a walk through the charming city of Pompei and visited the cathedral and its bell tower to end or trip with one last pizza.

Via Roma 81, Pompei, Italy

Breakfast at our balcony

With the best pasticceria across the street, we went for a take-away breakfast to enjoy our last hours in our luxury suite. Nothing beats an Italian espresso, some fresh orange juice and a 'cornetto amarena' or cherry-filled croissant in English.

Piazza Bartolo Longo 1, Pompei, Italy

Pompei from above

At the main square of Pompei you will find the 'Santuario di Pompei' - a cathedral - with its bell tower. At certain hours during the day you can enter the bell tower and take the elevator 80 metres to the top. Once arrived at the top you can enjoy a 360° view over Pompei all the way to Naples and the mountains of Amalfi. One of the most special things to see is the Archeological park of Pompei with Mount Vesuvius in the back. Once we are back with our feet on the ground, we went into the cathedral to see the detailed decorations inside the domes.

Our last pizza Napolitana

No better way to end our trip to the birthplace of pizza than eating one more. Below our B&B their is a traditional pizza restaurant: Le Delizie. So before checking out and picking up our suitcases to leave for the airport, we went in for a quick bite.
