Tour Description
GUIDED TOUR of ISCHIA: DISCOVERING THE GREEN ISLAND
Geologically, Ischia belongs to the Phlegrean fields, and with its area of 46 square km, it is the largest island in the bay of Naples.
Thanks to its volcanic origin, the island contains numerous thermal springs as well as luxurious vegetation which completely covers Mount Epomeo (789 metres), the highest point on the island.
