About the trip
This seven-night escorted holiday by Travelsphere sets off from Naples to explore remnants of classical Italy, starting with the underground amphitheatre at Pozzuoli, where gladiators once fought before audiences of 20,000. From there, a visit to Baia’s Roman thermal baths and the ruins of Greek temples at Cumae rounds off a day of surprising contrasts.
