Itinerary
Skip the long ticket lines on this 2-hour tour, and discover Pompeii, the remains of the Roman city frozen in time by the volcanic eruption of 79 A.D: the volcanic ash preserved Pompeii’s buildings, streets, mosaics, and frescoes, making Pompeii a unique site. Follow your licensend archaeologist guide in a small group tour (max 14 people) to experience this everyday Roman town, almost like it was under the Roman Empire. You’ll explore the best of Pompeii: from the Roman Forum to the world-famous plaster casts of those killed in the eruption from the Basilica to the Roman Bath, from the red light district, with the beautiful brothel Lupanare, to the Roman theatre (Teatro Grande) from some of the most beautiful domus (private houses) to the Gladiators' school. You will listen stories and fascinating anecdotes about what life was like before and during the eruption that will make your visit unforgettable.

About Pompeii
Pompeii is a Roman town near Naples frozen in ash when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, with streets, villas and frescoes preserved beneath the volcano.
Pompeii was a thriving Roman town when Vesuvius buried it under ash and pumice in AD 79. Excavation, begun in the eighteenth century, has uncovered paved streets with stepping stones, shops, bakeries, bathhouses and the forum. The amphitheatre, among the oldest Roman ones to survive, and the grand House of the Faun show the range of life, and plaster casts of the dead record the final moments of some residents.
Top-ranked sights in Pompeii: Pompeii Archaeological Site, Stabian Baths (Terme Stabiane), Via dell’Abbondanza.
